LOS ANGELES: Critically acclaimed actor Angela Bassett has been tapped to star alongside Millie Bobby Brown in Netflix’s upcoming fantasy film “Damsel”.
Oscar-nominated filmmaker Juan Carlos Fresnadillo is directing the movie from a script penned by Dan Mazeau.
According to Deadline, the story centres on a princess who’s shocked to find that she’ll be sacrificed to the dominion’s sacred cave dragon, after being married to her prince charming.
Bassett, who lately completed filming for Disney/Marvel’s much-anticipated sequel, “Black Panther 2: Wakanda Forever”, will play essay the function of Lady Bayford, the stepmother to Brown’s Elodie in “Damsel”.
Brown can also be serving as government producer for PCMA Productions, alongside Mazeau, Zack Roth, Chris Castaldi and Sue Baden-Powell. Joe Roth and Jeff Kirschenbaum are the producers.
