The Spy Kids film franchise debuted in 2001, with sequels released in 2002 and 2003. The franchise took a break after that, but returned in 2011 with Spy Kids: All the Time in the World, which features a new cast. Together, the movies have pulled in more than $550 million at the global box office.
There is no word yet on the cast or story for the next Spy Kids movie, but again, I would imagine it will involve kids who are spies.
