'He's All That' Ending Explained: Do Padgett, Cameron get together in the end?

Here's how the Netflix movie 'He's All That,' starring Addison Rae ended

Netflix’s latest movie ‘He’s All That’ is a reimagining of the 1999 movie ‘She’s All That’ with Addison Rae and Tanner Buchanan in the lead roles. The movie is set in the world of Tik Tok and Instagram where popularity on social media is everything. This is what our lives have become.

The way the millennial generation uses IG or any other social media platform these days can be quite stressful. The ''likes' they get on their posts works like dopamine and provides the validation teenagers crave from their peers, while too many thumbs down means social suicide. This is exactly what the movie's plot capitalizes on. Social media influencer Padgett Sawyer (Addison Rae) sees her world crashing down after an ugly breakup with her boyfriend Jordan (Peyton Meyer) that becomes a social media spectacle. As she loses her reputation, her followers dwindle as well and she is on the verge of losing her sponsorship from a renowned brand.

'He's All That' Full Cast List: Meet Addison Rae and other stars from Netflix movie

She makes a bet with her friend-turned-enemy Alden (Madison Pettis) that she’ll make an average-looking guy named Cameron Kweller (Tanner Buchanan) the prom-king. If she fails to do so, she would have to get ‘loser’ tattooed on her arm.

The major part of the movie is about Rae making Cameron confident about himself and making him know that he can be different. Even though she is doing it for her own gain, she starts having a genuine attraction toward him. So, what happens in the end? Did Cameron and Padgett go to the Prom together? Or did they end up being together? Let’s see how the movie concluded.

'He's All That' Ending Explained

During the final moments, we see Cameron deciding to not go to the Prom. Even though, he knows that Padgett genuinely likes him, his cynicism stops him from going there. He believes something bad will happen and ruin everything. His sister, Brin (Isabel Crovetti), convinces him to go to the event and patch up with Padgett. We get to see an emotional moment between a brother and sister here. Brin believes that her brother has always been cynical after their mother’s death and he seems to like his old, cheerful self when he’s with Padgett. He goes to the Prom and patches up with Padgett and they are not interested in the prom anymore.

Padgett’s ex-boyfriend Jordan wins the prom king accolade while Padgett is labeled as the Prom Queen. But she refuses to take the award and goes on stage to talk about how she fakes her perfect personality on social media and now she knows that relationships are much important than popularity. She reveals that she doesn’t want to lose Cameron.

So, it is clear that both of them have gotten together and they are living their lives happily. In one of the earlier scenes, Cameron revealed that he wanted to travel the world while Padgett always wanted to see Paris. In the closing moments, we see the duo getting their pictures clicked in Paris and some other places across the globe. They embark on their dream journeys together and even get matching tattoos, which say “loser”.

Also, the best part of the ending was seeing Matthew Lillard showing his insane dancing moves. That was one heck of a nostalgic moment. A befitting end to their story. Let’s see, in how many years, someone else decides to reimagine this enjoyable movie.

‘He’s All That’ is currently streaming on Netflix.
