Overview
- Multiple outlets reported this week that Lord Miller signed on to produce I Promise We’re Cool at Universal, with initial coverage appearing on June 8 and follow‑ups on June 9.
- Charlie Hall, known as an actor on The Sex Lives of College Girls, is set to write the screenplay while Max Tzannes of the Dirty Shot Clean collective is attached to direct and will executive produce alongside his partners.
- The film is described by reporters as a 'high concept' high‑school comedy with a sci‑fi twist, but plot, characters, casting and a release date remain undisclosed because the project is in early development.
- Lord Miller will produce the film through its first‑look deal at Universal with Aditya Sood and Lucy Kitada listed as producers, Ahkeyah Andrada credited with bringing the project in, and Erik Baiers overseeing the studio side.
- The announcement fits Lord and Miller’s recent move into mainstream sci‑fi after Project Hail Mary and follows their track record blending teen‑set and genre comedy, while also giving a major‑studio platform to rising creatives.
