EXCLUSIVE: Josephine Langford (Moxie), Drew Starkey (Outer Banks) and Archie Renaux (The Greatest Beer Run Ever) have signed on to star in The Other Zoey, a rom-com from Gulfstream Pictures that will head into production this month in North Carolina.
The film to be directed by Sara Zandieh (A Simple Wedding) centers on Zoey Miller (Langford), a bright college student who rejects traditional ideals of love and dating, only to have her entire perspective on romance turned upside down when another student mistakes her for his girlfriend, also named Zoey.
