Synopsis
Schmidt (Hill) and Jenko (Tatum) are more than ready
to leave their adolescent problems behind. Joining the police force and the
secret Jump Street unit, they use their youthful appearances to go undercover
in a local high school. As they trade in their guns and badges for backpacks,
Schmidt and Jenko risk their lives to investigate a violent and dangerous drug
ring. But they find that high school is nothing like they left it just a few
years earlier - and neither expects that they will have to confront the terror
and anxiety of being a teenager again and all the issues they thought they had
left behind.
21 JUMP STREET was written by Michael
Bacall (Project X, Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World), based on
the TV show “21 Jump Street” created by Patrick Hasburgh & Stephen J.
Cannell. It was produced by Neal H. Moritz (The Fast & The Furious series)
and Stephen J. Cannell (The A-Team, TV’s “21 Jump Street). Executive
producers are Jonah Hill, Channing Tatum, Ezra Swerdlow (The Smurfs, Zombieland)
and Tania Landau (Made of Honor, Vantage Point). The
