The movie will be shot mockumentary-style with YouTuber Michael Gallagher of TotallySketch set to direct.
According to Variety:
The movie follows six Internet personalities — played by Dawson, Greene, Amanda Cerny, Christian DelGrosso, Wendy McColm and Richard Ryan — as they travel across the country to compete in a talent competition. The winner receives the chance of a lifetime: their very own TV show.
No official release date has been announced, but the movie is slated for digital release sometime in 2016.
