In February 2013, it was announced that Ellen Page would direct the film, in her directorial debut, from a screenplay by Julia Hart, with Anna Faris attached to star in the film as a teacher. It was also announced that the film would be produced by Gilbert Films and Anonymous Content, Gary Gilbert and Jordan Horowitz producing in representation of Gilbert Films and Doug Wald producing in representation of Anonymous Content. Nicole Romano and Trevor Adley are executive producers representing Anonymous Content. In May 2015, Anthony Quintal announced via his YouTube channel that he had been cast in the film.

In an interview, Quintal later said that Julia Hart had approached him and said "I just know that you are perfect for this role. I have been looking for someone to play this role for so long. I came across you and your videos recently and thought, 'This is it. He is the one.'" In June 2015, it was announced that Lily Rabe, Timothée Chalamet, Lili Reinhart, and Rob Huebel had all been cast in the film, with Rabe replacing Faris. It was also announced Julia Hart, who wrote the screenplay, would make her directorial debut, replacing Page.
