Have you seen The Accused yet?
Speaking about the role, Chaneil told Digital Spy: “What Accused does is beautifully highlight things that as a society we like to think we know. The main thing I want people to take away is that sometimes these mobs are targeted at people who deserve it, but it’s important to be aware of honest belief if someone is accused of something on social media. Make up your own mind and judgment about things instead of being swayed by what’s in your feed.”

I might have to do a rom-com or something later though.”
