Netflix viewers 'can’t wait anymore' as new Millie Bobby Brown film is teased

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Netflix viewers are on the edge of their seats waiting for the first instalment of a new film release starring Millie Bobby Brown.

Damsel premieres on March 8 with Angela Bassett, Robin Wright, Nick Robinson, and Ray Winstone also on the cast list. Milly plays the 'determined and courageous' Elodie in this fantasy adventure where the traditional fairy tale has been completely 'flipped upside down.' The story will follow a princess whose happily ever after is 'brutally interrupted' when her Prince Charming sacrifices her to a dragon. “She’s a damsel who doesn’t need to be saved,” Milly told Netflix. “She saves herself in many ways.

It subverts what you expect: You’re expecting the prince to turn around and save her, and… no. Don’t wait for the prince.” The dutiful damsel Elodie agrees to marry a handsome prince, only to discover it was all a trap.

The royal family recruits her as a sacrifice to repay an ancient debt. She’s then thrown into a cave with a fire-breathing dragon, where she has to rely solely on her wits and will to survive.
