Lola Tung from The Summer I Turned Pretty and Nico Parker from How To Train Your Dragon will star in The Young People , the first feature under Osgood Perkins’ first-look deal with Neon.

The company is co-financing with Lyrical Media, and will release the film theatrically in the US and commence international talks with buyers at TIFF next week.

Perkins is producing with his partner Chris Ferguson for Phobos, and Brian Kavanaugh-Jones for Range.

Production is set to begin this fall in Vancouver and plot details remain under wraps.

Neon and Perkins first partnered on the 2024 smash Longlegs that earned $75m in North America and $127m worldwide. That was followed by early 2025 release The Monkey . Next up is Perkins’ Keeper on November 14.
