The role of her character's husband, a "nerdy" investigative reporter, as well as the film's villain, are still waiting to be filled. "Spy Kids 4: All the Time in the World" is set to begin filming in Austin, Texas in September with a budget of $30 million.
This will be the third time Jessica has worked with the Rodriguez after starring in "
Sin City" in 2005 and soon-to-be released "
Machete".
