The hosts of the mega popular YouTube series Dead Meat have joined the cast of upcoming horror-comedy Best Friends Forever, Variety reports this morning.
James A. Janisse and Chelsea Rebecca have joined the cast alongside Aristotle Athari (“Saturday Night Live”), Ally Maki (“Toy Story 4”), Zac Oyama (“Game Changer”), and Lynley Eilers.
The previously announced cast includes Bobby Moynihan (“Saturday Night Live”), Catherine Corcoran (Terrifier), Kimia Behpoornia (“Abbott Elementary”), Eliza Bennett (“Dynasty”), Jessie Ennis (“Mythic Quest”), Aparna Nancherla (A Simple Favor), Esther Povitsky (“Crazy Ex-Girlfriend”), and Rekha Shankar (“Between Two Ferns: The Movie”).
The horror comedy follows the bachelorette party reunion of five high school friends as they become exposed to toxic positivity-turned-supernatural and begin to turn against each other. The film explores the things we don’t say and all the things we don’t show, as women, to our friends.
Liz Manashil will direct from a script she co-wrote with Amy Taylor.
Filmmakers Emily Hagins (Scare Package), Ted Geoghegan (We Are Still Here), and Carter Smith (The Ruins) serve as associate producers for the upcoming Best Friends Forever.
