There's no word yet on the role that Michael will play, but this will mark the first time he has collaborated with both of his parents.
Previously, he worked with his father on The CW's Riverdale, where he played a younger version of Hiram Lodge. And during his appearance on Live with Kelly and Ryan, he explained how he got into character for the role.
"I took a bunch of acting classes to prepare for this episode, I have a great teacher," Michael said. "And I like to talk into the mirror, so I would just say the lines and work on my voice, sounding confident, sounding composed. But I really didn't feel like I was complete until I got into the suit. That makes it real for me." We imagine that Michael will adopt the same habits as he prepares for his film debut.
Ripa and Consuelos will executive produce the film under Milojo Productions as part of their partnership with Lifetime, and Dewan will also executive produce. Robin J. Hayes will serve as director and Jennifer Irwin will also star, according to IMDB.
Let's Get Physical drops on October 15, and we'll definitely be counting down the days.
