Addison Raesays thatHe’s All Thatwouldn’t have been the same without her friendKourtney Kardashian.
The TikTok star-turned-actress — who makes her big-screen debut in the upcoming Netflix film — opened up toAccesson Tuesday about Kardashian’s cameo in the project.
Asked how Kardashian, 40, landed the small role in the movie, Rae, 20, told the outlet, “I thought it’d be so incredible.”
When asked how the two get along, Rae said she and Kardashian “are really similar” in temperament and interests.
“I think both of us are very honest people and we like a lot of the same things,” explained Rae. “It started off with both of us just loving to workout. We were doing that together a lot.”
“She’s just a very real person and honest,” Rae added. “She’s been so helpful to me in every way. She’s such a good person to lean on.”

The first trailer forHe’s All Thatdebuted earlier in August.
In the original film, it was Zack Siler (Freddie Prinze Jr.) turning teen artist Laney Boggs (Rachel Leigh Cook) into Prom Queen.
This time, teen queen and social media influencer Padgett Sawyer (Rae) is working her magic on outcast Cameron (Cobra Kai’s Tanner Buchanan).
Cook will be back in the film, as will another of the movie’s original stars, Matthew Lillard. Both will be playing new roles.
Back in May, Cook told PEOPLE that there was a role in the film for Prinze too, but “it ended up not being a good fit for him.”
“He and the creative team are behind it are totally cool,” Cook said. “I think his part was a little bit up in the air. …. He said, ‘It’s not going to work out for me, but I totallyobviously support you doing whatever you wantwith this. Go run with it — I’ll support this movie all the way and everyone involved.’ "
