Actor Mckenna Grace, who recently starred in Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire, is set to headline Everything I Never Did, an upcoming young adult love story.

Australian director Jeremy Sims, known for his work in Last Cab to Darwin will direct the film which has screenplay by DJ McPherson and Scott Taylor.

According to the producers, Everything I Never Did tells the story of troubled teen Liam Black and Jenna Reid (Grace), a "seriously ill girl, who together embark on a transformative journey of living and loving in the face of adversity.”

McPherson said to Variety, “We are thrilled to finally announce ‘Everything I Never Did.’ It’s a project that is very close to our hearts, and we’re ecstatic to have Mckenna Grace leading our cast. Her profound ability to connect with complex roles will breathe life into this poignant narrative. We are thrilled to see her bring Jenna to life on the big screen.”

Production for the film is expected to start later this year. Grace is currently working on the pre-production of Straight Lines where she also serves as the executive producer. She has two more films - Anniversary and Spider & Jessie - in the pipeline which are in post-prodution.

Everything I Never Did's production is being overseen by Spencer McLaren from Aspect Entertainment, known for his work on La Brea and Dive Club.

McPherson and Jack Christian are also part of the production team under their newly formed banner, Filmology Features.
