Leah Lewis and Daniel Diemer are starring in a new Netflix movie!

In the upcoming flick The Half Of It, the two form an unlikely friendship as they vie after the same popular girl in school.

Here’s a synopsis: Bookish introvert Ellie Chu (Lewis) is perfectly content with her life: watching old movies with her widowed father and ghostwriting papers for her high school classmates to help pay the bills.

But her side gig turns personal when lovelorn jock Paul Munsky (Diemer) hires her to craft love notes to Aster Flores (Alexxis Lemire) — a smart, popular girl out of both their leagues… and Ellie’s own secret crush.

Just as the duo’s plan begins to work, a new wrinkle emerges: Ellie and Paul have fallen into a deep friendship neither could have anticipated, giving rise to a surprising love triangle.

The Half Of It premieres on May 1st on Netflix!
