In the supernatural YA murder-mystery, “Shari Cooper is dead. Like, fell from the top of a high-rise to the street below, dead. And one of her friends — is her killer. Now she has to solve her own murder from beyond the grave, before the relentless, soul-sucking Shadow that’s stalking her gets to her first.”
“Tubi has become a destination for YA audiences seeking relatable stories, compelling themes and character-driven storytelling brought to life by dynamic talent like Brec and Charlie,” Adam Lewinson, Chief Content Officer, Tubi, shared in a statement. “Christopher Pike’s ‘Remember Me’ became a rite of passage for a generation — a twisty, supernatural thriller that readers never forgot — and we’re excited to reimagine it for today’s audience.”
Brec will star as Shari Cooper, who is “a loyal and emotionally driven teenager reeling from her sudden and unexpected death. As grief and mystery give way to her sudden passing, Shari is pulled into a chilling search for answers that tests her courage and sanity.”
Charlie will play Peter Nichols. He is “compassionate and steady in demeanor, as he tries to remain rational while strange events unfold, serving as both a grounding force and a quiet source of emotional tension. Torn between moving forward and confronting the past, Peter embodies the struggle between logic and the lingering pull of unresolved feelings.”
Also cast in the movie include Mila Rayne as Amanda Parish, Phoebe Lyons as Jo Foulton, Matthew Vey as Jimmy Cooper and Kealeboga Masango as Beth Palmone.
Danishka Esterhazy will direct and executive produce from a script by Suzanne Keilly.
If you recall, Charlie is no stranger to working with Tubi. Last fall, he starred in Sidelined 2: Intercepted, alongside Noah Beck, Siena Agudong and more.
