Good news for those suffering from Stranger Things withdrawal: Netflix has dated its new Millie Bobby Brown film.
Damsel, a fantasy feature from Spanish director Juan Carlos Fresnadillo (28 Weeks Later), sees Brown playing a dutiful damsel who is selected by her queen to marry a handsome prince. But the dream turns into a nightmare when she realizes she’s being used by the royal family as a sacrifice to pay an ancient debt. Thrown into a cave with a fire-breathing dragon, she has to fight to survive.
Robin Wright plays the evil queen in a cast that also includes Angela Bassett, Ray Winstone, Nick Robinson and Shohreh Aghdashloo. Written by Dan Mazeau, Damsel‘s producers include Joe Roth (Maleficent), Jeff Kirschenbaum (Fast X) and Chris Castaldi (The Gray Man).
Netflix on Wednesday said that it will be bowing Damsel on its platform worldwide on March 8, 2024.
The streamer also released new images from the film as well as key art.
Netflix had released a new teaser trailer for the film last month. The opening scene sees Brown running for her life through a spooky fairytale woods, as Timber Timbre’s “Run From Me,” plays ominously. We later watch Brown’s “damsel” finding ways to save herself, fashioning a rope out of her clothes to climb a cavern of sharp, crystal spikes, narrowly escaping dragon fire and, finally, raising a sword to fight.
Stranger Things fans will have to wait a while longer for their grand finale. The fifth and final season of the sci-fi hit, which made Millie Bobby Brown a star, isn’t set to drop on Netflix until 2025.
