The film has been penned by Ryan Landels, and Jon M Chu (G.I. Joe: Retaliation, Justin Bieber: Never Say Never) is directing.
Speaking of the theme Chu told USA Today: “It's actually about a group of young people who are going to be inundated with this idea of fame and fortune and products and stuff, and within all that, how do you stay true to who you really are? That's the real soul of the movie."
Jem and the Holograms is set for release on 21st October 2015 in the US and Boxing Day over in the UK.
