21 Jump Street is the headquarters for a squad of police officers who specialize in investigations relating to young people.

The plot concerns a new drug that has run rampant at a high school, and Jenko (Channing Tatum) and Schmidt (Jonah Hill) are tasked with cutting it off at the source. Dave Franco will play Eric, a high school student who also happens to be a psycho drug dealer.
