Classic
Disney animation meets contemporary urban chaos when a frightened princess is banished from her magical animated homeland to modern-day New York City in a
romantic comedy penned by
Bill Kelly (
Blast from the Past), directed by
Kevin Lima (
Tarzan), and featuring music by composer
Alan Menken and lyricist
Stephen Schwartz.
Princess Giselle (
Amy Adams) lives in the blissful cartoon world of Andalasia, where magical beings frolic freely and musical interludes punctuate every interaction. Though
Princess Giselle is currently engaged to be married to the handsome
Prince Edward (
James Marsden), her fate takes a turn for the worse when the villainous
Queen Narissa (
Susan Sarandon) banishes her to the unforgiving metropolis of New York City. As the cruelty of the big city soon begins to wear down the
fairy-tale exterior of the once-carefree princess, the frightened
Giselle soon finds herself falling for a friendly but flawed divorce lawyer (
Patrick Dempsey) whose kind compassion helps her to survive in this strange and dangerous new world.
