What is He's All That about?

In a gender-swapped version of the 1999 film starring Freddie Prinze Jr. and Rachael Leigh Cook, He's All That focuses on high schooler Padgett, who takes on a cruel dare—a "dork outreach program," if you will—to turn geeky classmate, Cameron,  into the prom king.

Who's starring in He's All That?

Addison Rae will star as Padgett Sawyer, Cobra Kai‘s Tanner Buchanan will play the school dork, and the original movie's star, Rachael Leigh Cook, is set to make an appearance.

Rae's Padgett is inspired by Freddie Prinze Jr.'s role as Zach Siler in the '90s cult classic She's All That.

It seems that all-things '90s are having a moment. Take, for example, Jessica Biel's new teen thriller Cruel Summer, which takes place from 1994 to 1996. While you're waiting for Addison Rae and co. to hit screens, watch the who-dun-it and try to figure out who is really responsible for one of the character's disappearance.
