Paramount Studios has released the first trailer for Honor Society, an intriguing adolescent comedy starring Gaiten Mattero and directed by Oren Zagman, who has so far directed short films in Los Angeles.


Paramount Studios has released the first trailer for the intriguing adolescent comedy Honor Society, starring Gaten Matterzo (Dustin from "Strange Things" in his first film role), young Australian actress Angry Rice (Betty Brant from the Marvel-Spider-Man trilogy), and Christopher Mintz (McLabin from "Horny on Time", "Kick Ass").

The film, which will arrive on the streaming service Paramount Plus on July 29, also has a clear Israeli connection: the director is Oren Zagman, an actress and filmmaker born in Tel Aviv, who has performed in series such as "Hasamba Generation 3", "Zanzori", "Am Sgula", " The friends of Naor "and guest roles in" A Wonderful Land ", as well as in theater performances and in the film" Hunting Elephants "by Reshef Levy.

The film tells the story of Honor (Rice), an ambitious and cool high school student who will do anything to be accepted to the prestigious Harvard University - even if it means slyly sabotaging the chances of three other students competing with her for the coveted scholarship.

One of these students is Michael, the lovable layered nerd who poses the greatest threat to Honor's chances of acceptance.

But instead of neutralizing the threat, Honor discovers to her surprise that she is actually beginning to develop romantic feelings towards the diligent and kind-hearted student.

Is her promising academic future in doubt because of love?

The 38-year-old Israeli director Oren Zagman currently lives in Los Angeles, where she studied film, and has directed several short films to date.

Honor Society, shot on a budget of about $ 20 million, is her first full-length film.
