Dakota Johnson & ’Cha Cha Real Smooth’ at Variety Sundance Studio

When Dakota Johnson signed on to star and produce in “Cha Cha Real Smooth,” the first film under her Tea Time Pictures production company, director and writer Cooper Raiff wasn’t set to act in the production at all. But Johnson encouraged Raiff to change his mind, believing that he was perfect for the lead role of Andrew, a bar mitzvah party starter who befriends a single mom and her autistic daughter.
