The Desperate Housewives star wore her dark tresses pinned up and opted for a typically glamorous and bronzed makeup look.

Eva has been very busy with her directorial film debut - and the first trailer just dropped earlier this month.

Her upcoming feature is called Flamin' Hot - and follows the story of Richard Montanez, played by Jesse Garcia, a former janitor for Frito-Lay who claims to have invented Flamin' Hot Cheetos during his tenure with the company.

The cast, whose director recently opened up about helming projects, was rounded out by performers such as Annie Gonzalez, Dennis Haysbert and Tony Shalhoub, who portray Judy Montanez, Clarence Baker and Roger Enrico, respectively.

Flamin' Hot was based on Richard's book A Boy, a Burrito and a Cookie: From Janitor to Executive, which was published in 2013.

The former janitor went on to assume an executive role at PepsiCo and became a motivational speaker.

However, a 2021 article from the Los Angeles Times cast doubt on his story about the snack's invention, and a spokesperson for Frito-Lay stated: 'None of our records show that Richard was involved in any capacity in the Flamin' Hot test market.'

The spokesperson added: 'That doesn't mean we don't celebrate Richard, but the facts do not support the urban legend.'

According to the story, Richard did rise from a janitorial position to a role in the company's marketing department and 'pitched new product initiatives' during his time at the company.

Development on Flamin' Hot was revealed to the public in 2019, when Longoria signed on to helm the feature.

According to Deadline, the actress, who has previously directed several episodes of various television shows, beat out several other contenders for the position of director during the movie's development process.

Garcia signed on to star in the feature in 2021, and physical production concluded that August.

Flamin' Hot eventually premiered this past March as part of the South By Southwest festival in Austin.

The movie received generally positive reviews from critics and currently holds a 72% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

Flamin' Hot is currently scheduled to be released to the public through the Hulu and Disney+ streaming services on June 9.
