Sofia Vergara is breathing life into everyone’s favorite party-girl emoji, voicing the Flamenco Dancer in the upcoming The Emoji Movie.
Her character, debuted exclusively on PEOPLE, is a take on the familiar dancing woman in the red dress from your keyboard, updated with Vergara’s animated likeness. The Vergara version of the emoji sports a black dress and a clenches a red rose between her teeth.
“I play the Flamenco Dancer,” Vergara tells PEOPLE of her character, who is the life of the party in the movie. “And she is always doing the Flamenco. She does it in the morning when she gets up, she does it when she’s eating, she probably does it when she’s sleeping. It makes things like driving or putting on her makeup very difficult.”
Also starring T.J. Miller, James Corden and Anna Faris, The Emoji Movie unlocks the never-before-seen secret world inside your smartphone.
