Emma Roberts and Freddie Highmore have taken the starring roles in the currently filming teen romance “Homework.”
Joining Alicia Silverstone, Elizabeth Reaser, Blair Underwood, Rita Wilson, Michael Angarano and Sam Robards, the New York-set film follows “a homework-averse high school student (Highmore) who strikes up an unexpected friendship with the girl he’s loved from a distance (Roberts).” A high school student who hates homework? Shocking.
The film marks the feature debut for writer/director Gavin Wiesen and shooting on the film, which apparently has flown under everyone’s radar, is set to wrap this week. We’re not sure how the producers only got around to announcing their stars now, but whatever. We’re pretty sure we’re never going to see this but there are certainly some tweenagers out there who are thrilled.
