Lana Condor will reportedly star opposite Cole Sprouse in HBO Max rom-com 'Moonshot'

That sound you hear is teenagers screaming.

According to Deadline's Justin Kroll, Lana Condor and Cole Sprouse have been cast in a forthcoming HBO Max romantic comedy titled Moonshot. Kroll provided more context:

"Chris Winterbauer is attached to direct from a screenplay by Max Taxe. Sprouse’s Riverdale exec producers Greg Berlanti and Sarah Schechter will produce through Berlanti/Schechter Films along with Jill McElroy and Jenna Sarkin of Entertainment 360.

"The romantic comedy with a sci-fi twist is set in a future where Mars is terraformed and colonized by the best humanity has to offer. Two very different college students wind up joining forces and sneak onboard a space shuttle to the red planet in order to be united with their significant others."

Condor has already acted her way to the top of the rom-com universe as Lara Jean Song Covey in Netflix's wildly popular To All the Boys film trilogy, adapted from Jenny Han's novel series. The 23-year-old saw her time with the franchise officially wrap—and Lara Jean's swoon-worthy teen romance with Peter Kavinsky (Noah Centineo) continue into college—when To All the Boys: Always and Forever hit Netflix on Feb. 12.

Sprouse is most widely known for playing Jughead Jones on The CW's Riverdale series since 2017. The 28-year-old had previously taken what was intended to be a permanent hiatus from acting after working as a Disney child star alongside his twin brother, Dylan, on The Suite Life until 2011. As for Sprouse's experience with romantic comedies, he recently starred opposite Haley Lu Richardson in Five Feet Apart (2019).
