THEY’RE ALL THAT

‘She’s All That’ Stars to Reunite for Holiday Rom-Com

The pair will play sportscasters who team up at Christmas.

The stars of She’s All That are coming back for round two. Rachel Leigh Cook and Freddie Prinze Jr., who played love interests in the 1999 teen rom-com, are set to reunite with a new rom-com, The Christmas Affair. According to a press release from Fox Entertainment, Cook, 45, and Prinze, 49, will play sportscasters who discover just before Christmas that their respective spouses are cheating, leading them to an “unlikely alliance.” Jennifer Gibgot, a co-producer on She’s All That, will also produce this film. The Christmas Affair will mark the first time Cook and Prinze have shared the screen since their iconic rom-com 26 years ago. (The pair both appeared in the USA series Psych, but never shared a scene.) In the interim, Cook has starred in and produced plenty of subsequent rom-coms, including Love, Guaranteed in 2020 and A Tourist’s Guide to Love in 2023. Meanwhile, this will be Prinze’s second time starring in a Christmas rom-com, after the 2022 film Christmas With You. Cook made a cameo in the 2021 rom-com He’s All That, Netflix’s gender-swapped reboot of the original film.
