Crush is a 2022 American coming-of-age film directed by Sammi Cohen in her feature directorial debut from a script written by Kirsten King and Casey Rackham. The film stars Rowan Blanchard and Auliʻi Cravalho in a story about a teen girl joining her high-school track team to get closer to her crush, only to find out she's is getting closer to another teammate. The film is a Hulu original production.
Premise
Paige is a high-school artist who joins her school's track team just to get closer to the girl she has a crush on. Not knowing anything about track, her coach assigns her teammate AJ to train her. As Paige and AJ's friendship develops, Paige finds herself in a dilemma over who she should be pursuing.
Cast
- Rowan Blanchard as Paige
- Auliʻi Cravalho as AJ
- Megan Mullally as Paige's mother
Production
By July 2021, Kirsten King and Casey Rackham had written a script based on their own life experiences, telling a LGBTQ story that would show more queer joy growing up rather than the tales typically told simply about coming out. Sammi Cohen identified with the project, initially called Love in Color, and signed on to direct. Rowan Blanchard and Auliʻi Cravalho were cast in the lead shortly afterward, and shooting began in the Syracuse area of New York that summer. In March 2022, the final title was set as Crush with a release date set for April 29, 2022 on Hulu.
Reception
On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 73% of 11 critics' reviews are positive.
