Based on the twin’s true coming of age story, High School stars Seazynn and Railey Gilliland (of TikTok fame) as Tegan and Sara, Cobie Smulders (who most notably played Robin Scherbatsky in How I Met Your Mother) and Kyle Bornheimer (Marriage Story, Brooklyn Nine-Nine). 

Based in Calgary (where the musicians famously grew up), viewers can expect familiar sets, a solid 90s soundtrack, and maybe a friend or two in the background – as long as they’re available between now and June 2nd to film.

All races, ethnicities, and abilities are welcomed and needed and each actor will be paid, so check it out! We’ll be rooting for you!
