Raven said she had wanted to do a project with Walt Disney and when they presented this script, she made it happen.
“I was hoping that parent-daughter relationship came through the camera,” Raven said about working with comedian/actor Martin Lawrence. “I am a fan of Martin and I didn’t want that to show on camera, but when the camera was off; I was so excited …asking him questions.”
College Road Trip is about a relationship between a daughter (Raven Symone’) and her father, a police chief (Martin Lawrence), and his attempt at keeping her close to home when she attends college in the fall. The father decides to accompany his daughter on a road trip to see colleges in hopes he can persuade her to stay home. The result is a ton laughs to keep you viewing the film all the way to the end.
