Micheal Bay’s produced live-action Dora the Explorer feature film is ramping up production. Filming is expected to begin next month in Australia. With Sicario 2 and Transformers: The Last Knight star Isabela Moner set to play the title character.
Now we at Omega Underground have uncovered a new audition tape for the female role of Sammy read by unknown Australian actress Mila Mary. In the tape it seems Sammy is one of the High School bullies Dora must navigate while at school. However, in scene 2 it is revealed that Sammy joins Dora along with her cousin Diego on their adventures in the wild. It seems to indicate the film will be like a teenage version of Tomb Raider meets Mean Girls as the gang run from a tribe of ancient protectors. Who protect what we are assuming is an ancient artifact. The audition tape also confirms that Dora’s nemesis Swiper the Fox will also be making an appearance in the film…

:: Scene 1 ::
Off-Screen Dora – “Give those back”
Off-Screen Diego – “Come on man….”
Sammy – “Stop. Learn what no means. Be a better feminist”
Off-Screen Diego – “…I didn’t…I just”
Sammy – “No excuses. Just scram. [Looks around] There is a pep rally going on. I don’t know know why you all aren’t in the gym. Especially you. [Looks at Dora] Little girl talk. You’re messing up my school. Stop ruining our GPA’s. Stop letting dangerous spider’s loose. Stop injuring all our players. And stop getting to lunch early to eat all the Mac & Cheese. Got it.”
Off-Screen Dora – “I’m sorry.”
Sammy – “Don’t say sorry to me. Say sorry to your cousin Derek.”
Off-Screen Dora – “Diego”
Sammy – “…right. He was this close to being cool. Before you.”
:: Scene 2 ::
Off-Screen Diego “Incoming!”
Sammy – “Oh my god! That fox does work for humans.”
Off-Screen Diego – “They were the protectors apparently. I thought you said they were just legends! I guess they are legends like Mohammad Ali except alive and after us. They must be the ones that kidnapped your parents. We have to move faster than we’ve been moving.”
Sammy – “I wanna go home”
Off-Screen Diego – “I don’t think that is exactly possible considering people trying to shoot at us are back that way. Also! There’s no rope bridge.”
Sammy – “I’m done here. I wanna go home! I wanna be staring at my phone in a ice cold room drinking a frozen coffee beverage. I know that sounds basic but that’s what I want right now. She’s a badass. She can come for the both of us! Why do all women have to represent everything for all women. Why can’t I just say I hate this and it sucks. And not feel bad about it? And by the way that Boots song was a lie. It was totally dangerous! Arrows was raining down on me! What the heck was that? Hmm?”
