Eva Longoria will be strutting her stuff as a sexy school inspector in a new comedy movie.

The "Desperate Housewives" star has joined "American Pie" actor Jason Biggs for "Lower Learning", which tells the story of officials investigating a school with the lowest test scores in the state.

Eva?s character will unearth in-house affairs and bribery, while Jason will play the vice principal of the Barry Goldwater Elementary School.

The movie will be directed by Mark Lafferty, whose previous credits include spoof horror "The Seventh Sense".

Production on the film is set to begin this week, and it is expected to be released late next year.

Meanwhile, "Desperate Housewives" creator Marc Cherry has banned Eva from getting pregnant, after co-star Marcia Cross' pregnancy caused havoc with the show's storylines.

She said: "Tony and I are excited about starting a family, but because Marc has forbidden me to get pregnant this year, we're going to spend time as a married couple and build a solid foundation together before we bring our child into the world."
