BE SOMEBODY arrives on DVD September 13th

Two teens from very different worlds discover that they have a lot more in common than they ever imagined in the romantic drama BE SOMEBODY, arriving on DVD September 13, 2016 from Paramount Home Media Distribution. Social media superstar Matthew Espinosa stars as teen pop star Jordan Jaye, who just wants to live like a regular teenager. When he's chased down by some excited female fans, he finds a perfect hideout and a reluctant new friend in a small town high school art student named Emily Lowe (Sarah Jeffery, Descendants). Over the course of several days, the two embark on an unexpected journey of friendship, first love and self-discovery -- proving that maybe opposites really do attract.

Espinosa, who makes his feature film debut in BE SOMEBODY, has more than 18 million followers on social media and more than 1 billion loops/views on Vine. BE SOMEBODY also stars Tava Smiley ("General Hospital"), Caitlin Keats (Kill Bill: Vol. 2), LaMonica Garrett ("Sons of Anarchy," "The Game") and Allison Paige ("Days of Our Lives," "The Lizzie Bennet Diaries").

The BE SOMEBODY DVD is presented in widescreen enhanced for 16x9 TVs with English 5.1 Dolby Digital, Spanish 5.1 Dolby Digital and English, French and Spanish subtitles. The DVD includes the feature film in standard definition, as well as behind-the-scenes footage and a gag reel.
