Cha Cha Real Smooth is all set to be released on Friday, June 17, at 3:00 am ET on Apple TV+. The film premiered at the 2022 Sundance Film Festival in January this year and earned an Audience Award from the U.S. Dramatic Competition.

The synopsis for the film reads:

"Fresh out of college and without a clear life path going forward, 22-year-old Andrew is stuck back at home with his family in New Jersey. But if there’s one thing that belongs on his nonexistent résumé, it’s how to get a party started, which lands him the perfect job of motivational dancing at the bar and bat mitzvahs for his younger brother’s classmates. When Andrew befriends a local mom, Domino, and her daughter, Lola, he finally discovers a future he wants – even if it might not be his own."

The official trailer was released last month. It featured tender moments between Andrew and Domino as well as his relationship with his mom, his step-father and Domino's daughter Lola.

The film is produced by Ro Donnelly, Erik Feig, Dakota Johnson, Cooper Raiff and Jessica Switch.
