Centineo replaces Ben Hardy, who originally was attached to the project.

Directed by Ian Samuels, the modern Cyrano de Bergerac film stars Shannon Purser as Sierra, who is intelligent and creative but not exactly the shallow definition of high school pretty. When an unexpected romance forms in a case of mistaken identity, Sierra must team with the popular girl in order to win her crush.

Kristine Froseth, RJ Cyler and Will Peltz co-star in the film, which was written by Lindsey Beer.

Centineo will appear in Season 2 of AwesomenessTV’s T@gged.
