Addison Rae is set to star in a remake of the 90s classic “She’s All That,” according to Variety.
The film, titled “He’s All That,” is flipping the script on the original gender roles shown in the 1999 film. The movie originally starred Freddie Prinze Jr. as the popular heaththrob Zackary Siler, who gets dumped by his girlfriend and makes a bet that he can make any girl at school into prom queen, setting sights on artsy Laney Boggs, played by Rachael Leigh Cook.
The new film will feature Addison Rae as a popular influencer who hopes to makeover a nerdy guy into prom king.
“This reboot is a welcomed step towards a new generation of Miramax storytelling, part of our greater strategy to leverage our existing library with fresh, re-imagined content in both film and TV,” Miramax CEO Bill Block said in a statement obtained by Variety.
