Eva Longoria reveals why she loved getting typecast as 'sexy' after raunchy Desperate Housewives role
The actress, 49, famously starred as Gabrielle Solis in all eight seasons of the ABC comedy drama that ran from 2004 to 2012, and during that time she had no qualms leaning into being pigeonholed.
Eva's character embarked on a sordid affair with her teenage gardener John Rowland, played by Jesse Metcalfe, with the pair frequently seen enjoying steamy clinches as Gaby battled to hide their illicit romance from her husband Carlos (Ricardo S. Chavira) and the residents of Wisteria Lane. It has been 12 years since Desperate Housewives aired its final episode, and while Eva is keen to reprise her role in a reboot, she revealed that creator Marc Cherry has zero desire to revisit Wisteria Lane. Eva's Gaby was one of four housewives alongside Bree Van de Kamp, Lynette Scavo and Susan Mayer, played by Marcia Cross, Felicity Huffman and Teri Hatcher, respectively.
