The iconic series of Disney Channel, "Recess" is getting a live action movie and we are here for it!
here's a brief recap: The show revolved around six fourth graders named T.J., Vince, Gretchen, Spinelli, Gus, and Mikey, and all the important, yet fun (for us) lessons they learned while attending Third Street Elementary School.
The show is getting this remake thanks to Vancouver filmmakers Jerome Yoo and Kent Donguines. If funded, the nonprofit film will be released for free in August and will show what the former kids from Third Street Elementary are getting into as teenagers in high school.
According to the description, the reboot will be a "live-action, re-imagining of the gang in a high school setting tackling current issues like love, peer pressure, social media, identity, etc."
As far as casting goes, Benjamin Wadsworth has been tapped to star as T.J., while Sean Depner will play Mikey. Louriza Tronco will play Spinelli, Adam DiMarco (The Order) will play Randall, Lillian Doucet-Roche will play Gretchen, Fritzy-Klevans Destine (Batwoman) will star as Vince, and Clive Holloway as Gus.
But what we are really excited for is the iconic return of the mean girls (The Ashley's) and here we can get a glance on how they look like !
Now I wonder what Disney thinks of this, there must be some hot boiling tea here!
stay tuned for more updates! and see what happens with this Live action movie of our lovely recess kids.
