Kale even remarks that Jackson seems to be interested in Huck, and states that they’d make a cute couple. There’s definitely more chemistry between Huck and the male lead Jackson Stone (Michael Evans Behling) than Finley and Jackson, and it truly does seem to anyone without heterosexual blinders that Jackson is harboring a major crush on Huck – especially since that’s been the whole premise of the five previous movies in the franchise. My friend actually had a nervous breakdown after the whole scene because of how cringey and awkward it was.

(Yes, this is an Inception movie-inside-a-movie movie.) The director remarks, “That was weirdly erotic, but also not.” Yuck.
ANOTHER CINDERELLA STORY STARSTRUCK MOVIE
On the other end, though, there’s also a decidedly misplaced (if not entirely anti-) LGBT scene where the lead female character Finley, disguised as her male alter ego Huck (both played by Bailee Madison) a la Back to the Future, has to kiss her evil stepsister (who has a huge interest in Huck) for the movie they are acting in. To give credit where it’s due, this was the one element where the writers did not go ridiculously over-the-top and cliched there was no focus on the fact that he was gay, nor even a random declaration of his sexuality just so everyone could know. There is an LGBT+ side character: the evil step brother Kale (Richard Harmon), who is actually the best character in the movie (more on that later). Our little LGBT+ hearts fluttered – could this actually be a queer movie? A Cinderella Story: Starstruck (which I want to call “A Country Cinderella Story” every single time) is the fifth direct-to-DVD sequel, but has its own unique twist: the alter-ego of the female lead is male. Each of these are exactly what you would expect. took Hilary Duff’s Cinderella Story success formula and bled it dry, spawning FIVE (!) direct-to-TV/DVD sequels. It’s tried and true, and all very Miraculous Ladybug (2015). The female lead pretends to be someone else for one reason or another (in this case, to get a second shot at becoming famous) and the male lead falls in love with both versions of her. The classic Cinderella Story Dynamic™ is quite simple, but effective. Library of Congress so future generations may discover what a true rom-com is. Despite our differences, though, we can both agree that A Cinderella Story (2004) starring Lizzie McGuire (Hilary Duff) is a certified classic that deserves to be preserved in the U.S. My friend, however, absolutely lives for them I think factually there is not a single romance movie pre-2010’s that she hasn’t seen. I, personally, am very picky about my rom-coms. Now, I probably should go a bit more into our expectations, and the premise of this movie, before diving in any further.
