Jennifer Lopez is planning to take children’s TV favourite Bob the Builder to Puerto Rico as “Roberto”, in a film the singer and actress will co-produce.
The announcement comes hot on the heels of the box office success of another Mattel character, Barbie.
Roberto aka Bob, whose catchphrase is “Can we fix it? Yes, we can!”, will be voiced by Hamilton star Anthony Ramos.
Mattel said the film will “dig deeper into what it means to build” and will celebrate the Caribbean Latin nations.
Bob the Builder launched on BBC TV in 1999 and ran for 12 series.
