Mumblecore veteran and recent Emmy-winner Kent Osborne (Uncle Kent) and Dylan Sprouse (Disney’s “The Suite Life of Zack and Cody,” Big Daddy) star in BoulderLight Pictures’ thriller Dismissed, which marks the feature directorial debut of Benjamin Arfmann, who previously directed the acclaimed SXSW short “Random Stop.”

“In the film, an idealistic, straight-laced English teacher (Osborne) is drawn down a nightmarish rabbit hole by an honor roll student (Sprouse) who will stop at nothing to get an ‘A.’”

Rounding out the cast will be Randall Park (The Interview), Chris Bauer (“True Blood”) and Alycia Delmore (Humpday).

EW shared the poster art and trailer for the film will open on VOD and digital platforms on Nov. 21.
