Eva Longoria says she’d be the first person to sign up for a reboot of Desperate Housewives, the TV show that made her a household name.

The American actress was one of the breakout stars of the hit drama that debuted in 2004 and ran for eight seasons. This weekend, she told Stellar magazine about the prospect of signing on for a reboot: “I would be the first person.”

Longoria said she was “super proud” of the hit series’ legacy, reflecting that its popularity helped pave the way for more female-led dramas.

She said, “I love that, when I’m anywhere in the world, people go: ‘Gabby!’ I actually take a lot of pride in that. To me, it’s just reflective of the impact it had.”

She added that, as the youngest of the show’s cast to grab the spotlight through their roles on Wisteria Lane, the overnight attention caught her by surprise, recalling a trip to London when a crowd gathered outside her hotel. She recounted:

“I said: ‘Is Bono here?’ And they said: ‘No, they are here for you, that’s why they are out there.’ I couldn’t believe they would even know me, because I’d never been to London. And that [realisation of the global reach of the show] was really weird and great at the same time.”

She said of the first time she read the script for the show: “I only knew it was super special because it was odd. It was the first time I had read a dramedy, so I didn’t get it.”
