Ruby Rose has joined the cast of the upcoming film 1UP!
The former Batwoman actress is taking over the role from Elliot Page, who has stepped away from the project, THR reports.
Also joining the cast are The Kissing Booth 2‘s Taylor Zakhar Perez, Hari Nef and Nicholas Coombe.
Fans may have already guessed that Taylor, Hari and Nicholas were cast in the film as they have been seen in Instagram photos posted by Paris Berelc and director Kyle Newman.
The movie is the first from Buzzfeed Studios and Lionsgate’s partnership, and production began back in November in Toronto.
Here’s a synopsis: A female gamer named Vivian Lee (Berelc) quits her college eSports team rather than put up with sexism from her male counterparts. But with her scholarship on the line, she is forced to assemble a Varsity caliber, all-women’s team that can compete with the boys.
With the help of an enigmatic coach (Rose) who returns to the spotlight after her own GamerGate scandal, the young woman recruits an unlikely crew of unskilled misfits to kick some serious gamer butt.
