With director Mark Waters He’s All That arriving on Netflix tomorrow, I recently spoke with Addison Rae and Tanner Buchanan about their reimagining of 1999’s She’s All That. During the interview they talked about what people would be surprised to learn about the making of He’s All That, why filming the Gatsby party scene was a challenge, and how long it took them to geek out with their director about Mean Girls. In addition, he talked about their favorite movies, posting on Instagram, their favorite karaoke song, what they collect, Cobra Kai Season 4., and more.
As you’ve seen in the trailer, He’s All That is about a teen social media influencer (Rae) who bets her friend that she can turn an antisocial classmate (Buchanan) into prom king material. Things get complicated when she finds herself falling for him IRL He’s All That also stars Madison Pettis, Rachael Leigh Cook, Peyton Meyer, Isabella Crovetti, Myra Molloy, Annie Jacob, and Matthew Lillard.

Here’s the He’s All That synopsis.
In this reimagining of 1999’s She’s All That, Padgett (Tik Tok star Addison Rae) has mastered her perfect high school life: She’s a popular beauty influencer with a huge following, and her hot pop star boyfriend makes her the envy of everyone on her feed. But after she catches him cheating while livestreaming, she goes viral for all the wrong reasons. To repair her reputation, Padgett makes a risky bet that she can turn her scruffy antisocial classmate Cameron (Cobra Kai’s Tanner Buchanan) into prom king material. Things get complicated when she finds herself falling for him IRL—and learning no one is quite who they seem on social media, least of all herself.
