WHAT’S IT ABOUT?

As a child, Prince Phillippe Charming (Valderrama) is cursed with having every woman he comes across fall madly in love with him. Years later, when he is just shy of his 21st birthday, he has compulsively proposed to many women, leaving a lot of scorned and vengeful lovers in his wake, which leads his father the King (Cummings) to give him an ultimatum: find a true and honest bride before he turns 21, or lose all claim to the throne. Teaming up with Lenore (Lovato), a maiden disguised as a merchant, Charming sets out on an adventure to finally find the love of his life…

IN ONE SENTENCE, WHY SHOULD YOU BE EXCITED?

An irreverent fairy tale comedy in the same vein as Shrek – it’s even produced by the guy who also produced those films – Charming offers a funny and fresh new take on the fantastical world of dreams and wishes.
