Variety reports that the movie “follows 1980s hair metal band CougarSnake, whose career ended just as it was starting due to clashes over the direction of the group. In the present day, a mention of the band in an interview by Billboard charting Gen-Z music star Bryce Cooper (Brandon Butler), whose absentee father introduced him to CougarSnake as a child, creates a frenzy to find the members of the group and reunite them as opening act for Cooper’s forthcoming charity concert. Scott stars as Jesse, the bass player for CougarSnake, who has not so comfortably settled into single fatherhood. Unsure whether he wants to relive his faded rockstar dreams, his daughter Alex (Miller) and her best friend Kat (Dunn) join forces to change his mind and get the band back together.”
Jake will be playing Justin, a “potential new lead singer, who must overcome stage fright to lead the band back to glory.”
Teala has recently appeared in a recurring role on Freeform’s Good Trouble as well as the Hulu rom-com Crush, while McKaley recently had a stint on 9-1-1: Lone Star and starred in the move Butter. Tom has recently been seen in Dolly Parton’s Mountain Magic Christmas and The Summer I Turned Pretty.
