Take Your First Look at Auli’i Cravalho and Asher Angel’s New Movie, Darby and the Dead
The first look at Auli’i Cravalho and Asher Angel’s new movie, Darby and the Dead has been released. The duo is joined in the supernatural teen comedy by Riele Downs, Chosen Jacobs, Wayne Knight, with Derek Luke and Tony Danza,
After suffering a near-death experience as a young girl, Darby Harper (Downs) gains the ability to see dead people. As a result, she becomes introverted and shut off from her high school peers and prefers to spend time counseling lonely spirits who have unfinished business on earth. But all that changes when Capri (Cravalho), the Queen Bee of the school’s most exclusive clique, unexpectedly dies in a freak hair straightening accident, resulting in the obvious cancellation of her upcoming “Sweet 17.” Capri, however, pleads with Darby from the other side to intervene and convince Capri’s friends to proceed with the party as planned. In order to appease the wrath of the undead diva, Darby must emerge from her self-imposed exile and reinvent herself — which along the way allows her to find new joy back in the land of the living.
The movie will be released on December 2 exclusively on Hulu in the U.S., Star+ in Latin America, and Disney+ under the Star banner in all other territories.
