Spellbound.

A princess tries to undo a spell that has changed her family.

Ellian has been quietly managing the kingdom of Lumbria while hiding an extraordinary problem: her parents have turned into enormous monsters. When their secret escapes the palace, she sets off with them to find a way to break the spell. The journey brings strange creatures, magical obstacles and a harder discovery about what it means for a family to change.

Why it’s a little special

A colorful musical adventure with Rachel Zegler leading a story about family upheaval, complicated feelings and finding a way forward together.

Know the story.
Know your little people.

PG
Parental guidance suggested

US film rating

The official US PG rating cites thematic elements and some action/peril. Large monsters, magical attacks and a threatening dark force can be frightening. Parental arguments, separation and divorce are central themes; children may need reassurance that repairing adult relationships is not their responsibility. Expect emotional scenes alongside the songs and comedy.

Our notes are a starting point, not an age recommendation. G and PG films can still include intense moments. You know your family best.
