What Is The Princess About?

Here’s Hulu’s official synopsis of The Princess:

When a beautiful, strong-willed princess refuses to wed the cruel sociopath to whom she is betrothed, she is kidnapped and locked in a remote tower of her father's castle. With her scorned, vindictive suitor intent on taking her father's throne, the princess must protect her family and save her kingdom.

The Princess isn’t about the perfect, story-book, rule-abiding royalty. She’s a force to be reckoned with, a fierce warrior, and a strong-willed daughter who vows to save her family from an evil prince. And she will do anything in her power for her freedom, and fight every single person who stands in her way.

Watch the Trailer for The Princess

The official trailer of The Princess proves that this movie isn’t your average fairy tale and royalties that you usually read about. This is clearly a princess you don’t want to mess with. The action-packed clip introduces Joey King as the titular princess – forced to get married against her will and sad about it until she isn’t. Running away from her wedding to slashing her enemies, this young royal seems to be on a dangerous mission.

The trailer highlights the awe-inspiring action sequences with Joey King’s kickass moves that you would want to die for, while Joan Jett & the Blackhearts’ “Bad Reputation” plays in the background. And no, this princess doesn’t care about reputation, she only cares about justice, whatever it takes.
