Class Act: DVD Film — Randall Miller | Kid ‘N Play, Karyn Parsons, Alysia Rogers

Get ready for the ultimate case of mistaken identity with the Warner Bros. Pictures Archive Collection DVD release of the comedy classic Class Act.

Released in 1992 and directed by Randall Miller, this beloved teen comedy stars the legendary hip-hop duo Kid 'n Play (Christopher "Kid" Reid and Christopher "Play" Martin). The film brilliantly combines humor, high-energy music, and a classic coming-of-age story that centers on friendship, peer pressure, and finding your true identity in a demanding high school environment.

The story follows Duncan Pinderhughes and Michael Charles "Blade" Brown—two high school students who are total polar opposites. Duncan is a brilliant, straight-A student with thick glasses and zero street cred, while Blade is a carefree, leather-jacket-wearing slacker who has just been released from juvenile detention. When a school clerical error accidentally switches their academic records, the two are forced to navigate each other's worlds. As they frantically try to maintain their new personas to avoid expulsion, they run into a wild series of comedic mishaps, gang confrontations, and unexpected romantic entanglements that ultimately forge an unbreakable bond between them.
