While in the midst of gearing up for the fifth and final season of ‘Stranger Things,’ and recently seen in ‘Enola Holmes 2,’ actress Millie Bobby Brown has already expanded her collaborati𓆏on with Netflix. She’s set to star in ‘Damsel,’ one 💙of the forthcoming original movies on the streaming platform.
Netflix has unveiled a new poster for the upcoming film, showcasing Millie🦩 Bobby Brown in a fierce look, wielding a sword to confront monsters. The poster has the tagline written on it, which reads, “This is not a fairytale,” adding to the ant𝓰icipation ahead of the movie’s release.
Further, the caption read, “Millie is o🐼ut to slay (ꦡthe monster) in Damsel on 8 March, only on Netflix.”
The movie aims to subvert the basic concept of the ‘damsel in distress’ narrative. Brown takes on the role of Princess Elodie, a dutiful, obedient damsel chosen by her queen for marriage to a charming prince. However, her w🦋orld becomes topsy turvy when she finds out tha🦹t she is being used by the royal family to serve as a sacrifice to settle an ages-old debt. The story unfolds as she finds herself thrown into a horrific cave with a life-threatening, fire-breathing dragon, thus, beginning her battle for survival.
Other than the 19-year-old actress, ‘Damsel’ boasts of a star-studded cast, including Angela Bassett as Lady Bayford, Elodie's stepmother; Robin Wright as Queen Isabelle; Ray Winstone as t💮he King; Ni💮ck Robinson as Prince Henry; Brooke Carter as Floria, Henry's younger sister. Other stars in the film are Shoreh Aghdashloo, Sam Sharma, Sonya Nisa, Erickson Santos Gomes, Elmano Sancho and Saif Mohsen.
Directed by Juan Carlos Fresnadillo, written by Dan Mazea, and backed by Joe Roth and Jeff Kirschenbaum, this dark fantasy film is slated to release on March 8, only on Netflix.
