Overview

Can't Hardly Wait is a contemporary teen comedy released in 1998, starring a few of the biggest young names in show business at the time. This was the second full-length film to be written and directed by Deborah Kaplan and Harry Elfont (who worked previous on the Very Brady Sequel). The main story follows six different high school students on the night of their graduation, all attending the same party, as they try to overcome issues stemming from their last four years of school. The film was released during the mid-summer season of 1998 and grossed roughly $15.5 Million by the end of its theatrical run.
