"Eva Longoria has spoken about her guest star role in the next season of The Simpsons. The actress will voice the character of school student Isabel in the long-running animated sitcom when it returns for its 25th run.   &amp;quot;I play Isabel, a new student who is finally Lisa&amp;#039;s intellectual equal,&amp;quot; TV Guide quotes Longoria as saying. &amp;quot;They \u00ADbecome fast friends, and then things take a left turn when they realize they have different political views.&amp;quot; The Desperate Housewives star admitted the role had been challenging as she is more familiar with live action roles. She also noted that she holds a different political stance to her character. She said: &amp;quot;This is a big stretch for me not only because it&amp;#039;s voice work, which I rarely do, but also [because] I&amp;#039;m playing a Republican and I&amp;#039;m obviously a Democrat.&amp;quot; Bridesmaids actress Kristen Wiig and Arrested Development star Will Arnett have also signed up as guest stars in the show&amp;#039;s new season, which will air on FOX this fall.
