The trailer for Joey King’s Princess looks like a Disney fairy tale crossover starring John Wick

The world of Hulu movie it can be casual, with old favorites and new surprises awaited each month. However, the director Le-Van Kiet next movie Princess is probably one of the most unexpected concepts planned for the summer. Imagine: a Disney fairy tale, crossed with a john wick film, with Joey King as the ruler ready to settle the score.

our title Princess (Joey King) is in a bit of a tricky situation because her dad promised to marry a villain in black (Dominic Cooper) and she resisted. Before you can say “Rapunzel”, the trailer released by Hulu (opens in a new tab) he finds said princess locked up in a tower on the land of the kingdom, with a situation that seems quite desperate.

At least, until he’s taught how to fight, through practice and determination. Once this angle comes into play, the chances of Princess’ the fight scenes get quite outlandish. While the trailer has something to say about it, there are some other fan-favorite blockbusters that you can spot in the DNA of this action fantasy.

Part of Princess obviously it looks like you will see Joey King come out of the tower that has become his prison; he hopefully with a pan in the mix, as a clever nod Tangled up. With the one pictured, the spirit of 20th century studios really seems to shine, because it looks like we have a die Hard-Style step in our hands. I don’t understand how anyone didn’t think before taking a princess movie and throwing it into some kind of panic from John McClane.

Someone behind the scenes, at least in the marketing department who shot this trailer, also wants to invoke these Shrek vibrations. Playing “Bad Reputation” by Joan Jett and the Blackhearts at Joey King cleaning the floor with Dominic Cooper’s henchmen is definitely reminiscent of Princess Fiona doing something very similar. Although there is not as much blood or oaths as the assigned R rating Princess seems very justified.

It’s been an action-packed summer for Joey King, amidst his leadership Princessas well as its role in Brad Pitt’s extravagant casting High speed train . like him john wick As the series progresses and the introduction of exciting new characters, it’s possible this film will see King finally recruited into this ever-changing universe. Maybe I can even resist Ana de Armas, the woman who has the most desire to play in Dancer divided .

For now, we can expect Princess Reign of Pain, which begins July 1; but you won’t find this happily ever after potential on Disney +. exclusive broadcast for Hulu subscribers , we recommend that you make sure your account is up to date, if you want to see all the fun.
