She has most recently starred in a sequel to the comedy drama, тιтled Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Road Trip.

In the comedy movie, which is based on the story by Judith Viorst, Longoria plays Val Garcia, the mom in a multigenerational Mexican-American family who set off on a road trip to California.

She stars alongside Paulina Chávez, Cristo Fernández, Cheech Marin, Harvey Guillén, Jesse Garcia, Rose Portillo, Jacqueline Torres and Thom Nemer, among many others.

While promoting the new Disney+ movie, Eva has opened up about her family dynamics and what she was like growing up. 

In an interview with Today, she said that she was often compared to her three sisters – Esmeralda, Elizabeth and Emily – adding that she ‘wasn’t the pretty one’.

She said she decided to focus on being the ‘funny’ and ‘smart’ one to compensate for what she felt she lacked, and that was how she got into performing.

‘I was performative in my family because I was the ugly duckling,’ she said before cracking a joke. ‘Documentation is available if you need it.’ 

She added: ‘My three sisters look alike. They are all blonde.

‘I knew I wasn’t the pretty one and I was like, “Okay, I’m not the pretty one so I’m going to be the funny one. I’m going to be the smart one.”‘

She also looked back on her childhood growing up as the youngest of four sisters on a ranch with chickens in Texas.

‘We had to go get the eggs in the morning. We had to milk the cow for the milk that was going to go in the coffee and in our cereal,’ she explained.

Eva later attended Texas A&M and graduated with a degree in kinesiology, using scholarship money from a beauty pageant she had won to partly fund her studies.

It was competing in beauty pageants that ended up leading her to Hollywood, with Eva explaining: ‘I land in Hollywood and I don’t know what happened.

‘I just was like, “I think I’m going to be an actor.”‘

She became a household name due to the success of Desperate Housewives, which ran for eight seasons from 2004 to 2012.
