We’re still not sure how we feel about a Flamin’ Hot Cheetos movie, but here we are. The Searchlight Pictures film actually had pretty positive reviews from early festival audiences. This is the story of Richard Montañez, a real life Frito-Lay janitor who invented Flamin’ Hot Cheetos.

Montañez (Jesse Garcia) must convince PepsiCo CEO Roger Enrico (Tony Shalhoub) why his invention, his take on the iconic orange crunchy snack staple, was worth investing in. Eva Longoria not only produces, but directs, from a script by Lewis Colick and Linda Yvette Chávez.
The film also stars Annie Gonzalez, Dennis Haysbert, Emilio Rivera, Matt Walsh, Pepe Serna, Bobby Soto, Jimmy Gonzales, Brice Gonzalez, Vanessa Martinez, Fabian Alomar, Mario Ponce, and Hunter Jones.
“Flamin’ Hot” hits Hulu and Disney+ on June 9th 2023.
