72 HOURS OF YOU

August 2026 - Disney-Hyperion (US)

72 hours before someone dies, Sydney Hoffman sees a pink neon clock appear over their head. Being able to see death’s updates in real-time would have broken lesser seventeen-year-olds, but not Sydney. She might be more nihilistic than her peers but, really, she’s fine… as long as she follows three rules: 

1. Don’t tell anyone. 

2. Don’t witness a Zero Hour. 

3. Don’t get involved.

But when a classmate and a teacher tragically die in the same month, the seniors start wearing all black and hosting drunken grief groups, making it impossible for Sydney to ignore the clocks. Enter transfer student Peter Beckett: outgoing, open, charismatic, and handsome (if you’re into that classic ABC Freeform type of hot). When he discovers what Sydney can do, he convinces her that she doesn’t have to handle the clockings alone. Together they come up with a new plan: 

1. Go into the city and find Clockers.

2. Help them live the best End Hours of their lives.  

3. Maybe, actually, have some fun?

The more people they secretly help, the more Sydney starts to believe that maybe she can let go of the memories that haunt her and hold on to Peter instead. But just when she starts to feel a shred of happiness, the universe delivers a devastating blow that reminds her: death never plays by the rules.
