Production
The script was written in July of 2015. The original story, according to the script, was originally supposed to be about Zay and Lucas' backstory at Texas. However, Michael Jacobs and April Kelly hated the idea, and the plot was rehashed with Riley and Maya discovering that there is a new evil principal who wants to rule New York and his name is Blockford Banshee. Kevin Spacey was cast as that character on August 14, 2015. Filming started on October 2015 and ended on July 2016. During filming in March 2, 2016, there was a sudden fire drill so everyone had to evacuate the filming studio due to a flame burning up a cutout inside the studio. Rowan Blanchard thought of the fire drill as "Scary fire drill interrupting us on March the second... Ugh!" Editing was finally complete in July 29, 2016 and April Kelly finally announced the film's release in September 2016 for October 22, 2016. The score was composed by Ray Calcord (until he died) and Hans Zimmer. In fact, the movie was dedicated to Ray Calcord too.
