Here’s a synopsis: Ellie (Waisglass) is an organized perfectionist who has accepted her fate as an unpopular high schooler looking forward to a future at a prestigious college where no one will call her “Max,” the unfortunate nickname she received from Nate (Hudson) years ago.
Also starring in the movie are Lillian Doucet-Roche, Graham Verchere, Aiden Howard, Kyra Leroux, Jana Morrison, Ecstasia Sanders, Sebastien Roberts and Sean Amsing.
“Ellie is mean. She’s hurting, she’s got a lot of grief that she carries which makes her much more controlling (of her surroundings and her peers),” Sara tells Teen Vogue of her character.
“We share the same lingo, so it felt familiar to portray that on screen, I honestly felt like I was playing a younger version of myself,” Chase added of the similarities between him and his character. “I was also excited to tap back into my baseball roots and tell this story with such a great cast; we all became close. There were a few scenes I knew would challenge me, but I love a challenge.”
How to Lose a Popularity Contest, written by Kaitlin Reilly and Dorian Keyes, and directed by Stephen S. Campanelli, will debut on January 16th on Tubi.
