The Netflix romcom updates the 1999 hit 'She's All That' for the TikTok generation.
The social media star is taking the leap from TikTok to the silver screen in a remake of the 1999 hit “She’s All That.”Imagine a gender-swapped"My Fair Lady" set in a California high school with a dude in the role of the poor, little flower girl transformed by a master.romcom that updates the 1999 hit"She's All That" for the TikTok generation.
In the first film, which raked in over $100 million and is still a cult fave despite critical shrugs, Freddie Prinze Jr. played a campus hero who got dumped by his cheerleader girlfriend and got even by betting he could turn a plain jane into a hottie. Cinderella stories seem to grab us no matter how cornball thick they lay it on. So why not a Cinderfella -- in this case ratty, antisocial misfit Cameron -- getting a makeover from Padgett, the school's beauty queen of social media.
In a casting dustup, Padgett is played by Addison Rae, who has never acted before. But her credits include being cited by Forbes as the top-earning beauty influencer , with 80.5 million followers on TikTok, 38 million more on Instagram and nearly 5 million subscribers on YouTube for her song and dance videos. Let Meryl Streep top that.Rae, whose Twitter distractors are also legion, is no threat in the acting sweeps. But, hey, the Louisiana belle is only 20. Give her time.
