Rachael Leigh Cook Will Reprise Her SHE'S ALL THAT Role in the Reboot HE'S ALL THAT
Rachael Leigh Cook is set to reprise her role from the 1996 romantic teen comedy She’s All That, Laney Boggs, in Miramax’s upcoming reboot He’s All That. She joins the previously cast Addison Rae and Tanner Buchanan in the gender-flipped movie.
Rae is taking on a role inspired by Freddie Prinze Jr’s Zackary Siler character. Her name is Padgett Sawyer, who “accepts a challenge to turn the school’s least popular boy (Buchanan), into prom king, attempting to avenge herself following a humiliating fallout with her boyfriend. Cook will play Padgett’s wise and caring mother.”
Mark Waters is set to direct the film from a screenplay by R. Lee Fleming, who also write the original film. Original producers Jennifer Gibgot and Andrew Panay are producing
The reboot also stars Madison Pettis, Petyon Meyer, Isabella Crovetti, Annie Jacob, and Myra Molloy. It’s kinda cool to see that Rachael Leigh Cook will be reprising her role. It’ll be interesting to see how her character will be worked into the story. I imagine that it won’t be a big part, but we’ll see.
