Release Info:

Release Date: December 2, 2022 (USA) | Length: 100 min | Genre: Comedy, Drama, Fantasy, Horror | MPAA Rating: Rated PG-13 for strong language, suggestive material and some teen partying.. | Note(s): Original title: "Darby Harper Wants You to Know.". Storm Reid was originally cast as Darby, and was also supposed to produce the movie. She ended up dropping out due to a scheduling conflict, and was replaced by Riele Downs. I wasn't able to identity Zintle Mayaphi or Imaan Appies. There were others that I couldn't identify because this movie was their only roll and/or their character had a generic name.
