Auli’i Cravalho, Asher Angel, & More Attend Special Screening of Darby and the Dead

20th Century Studios held a special screening of its new movie, Darby and the Dead last night, November 30 in Hollywood, CA. Held at the Los Angeles Threatre Center, Auli’i Cravalho, Riele Downs, Chosen Jacobs, Derek Luke, Asher Angel, Kylie Liya Page, Nicole Maines, and Genneya Walton, as well as director Silas Howard, screenwriter Becca Greene, story writer Wenonah Wilms, producers Adam Saunders and Eddie Rubin, and executive producer Mac Hendrickson walked the carpet before heading in for the screening.

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 to Hulu on Friday, December 2.
