In a top-secret government experiment gone wrong (or right, depending on your sense of humor), the DNA of history’s most influential figures has been used to create teenage clones. Now, these genetic replicas — from Cleopatra to Abraham Lincoln — are navigating the minefield of modern high school life, caught between the weight of their legendary destinies and the awkwardness of SAT prep. Set in the present day, the live-action adaptation blends biting satire with heartfelt coming-of-age drama. Between pep rallies and pop quizzes, the clones must wrestle with identity, destiny, and hormones — all while their shady government overseers pull the strings. As friendships form, rivalries ignite, and romances bloom (and combust), each clone begins to wonder: are they bound to repeat history… or can they rewrite it entirely?
