But when a gutsy outsider is unexpectedly nominated to the court, and the other girls start mysteriously disappearing, the class of ’88 is suddenly in for one hell of a prom night.”
Yvonne Bernard, Joan Waricha, Jane Stine will serve as executive producers alongside Caroline Pitofsky, who is overseeing production for Chernin Entertainment. Producers include Peter Chernin, Jenno Topping and Kori Adelson for Chernin Entertainment.
