LONGORIA PARKER PLANS FELIX BIOPIC

EVA LONGORIA PARKER plans to celebrate her Latina roots on the big screen - she is eyeing a movie about the life of legendary Mexican film star MARIA FELIX.
The Desperate Housewives actress admits she has always wanted to play Felix, who passed away in 2002 at the age of 88.
And Longoria Parker cites her Mexican genes as one of the major reasons why she is determined to land the role herself.
She tells the New York Daily News, "I'd love to adapt the story of Maria Felix. I think she's the icon of Mexican cinema, and I would love to bring her story to life. I'm very proud of being Mexican-American, so I celebrate it as much as possible."
