EVA LONGORIA ON RICHARD MONTAÑEZ'S STORY 

Flamin’ Hot is Longoria’s feature film directorial debut. It was clear to Longoria that the power and emotion in the story came from the ups and down, challenges and success of a man who never gave up and never settled. This film is about the strength of faith and family to empower and uplift. “This is not a story about the Flamin’ Hot Cheeto”, Longoria said. “Flamin’ Hot is the story of Richard Montañez’ life. And it’s a fascinating life”, she added. “He has overcome so much.  We could have stayed in his childhood for a whole movie, that’s how interesting he is.”
