Sucsy is directing from a script by Susannah Grant, who created a fictional story and characters to compliment the Beach Boys songs that will drive the film, which takes its title from one of the band’s songs/albums.

Meron and Zadan served as executive producers on ABC’s 2000 TV movie “The Beach Boys: An American Family” along with Stamos, who played with and remains close to the legendary group.
