Never Underestimate A Distressed Damsel

David Flemming Has Scored DAMSEL, Coming to Netflix March 8th

February 16, 2024

DAMSEL is an upcoming American dark fantasy film directed by Juan Carlos Fresnadillo and written by Dan Mazeau. The film stars Millie Bobby Brown, Ray Winstone, Nick Robinson, Shohreh Aghdashloo, Angela Bassett, and Robin Wright. DAMSEL sees Brown as a dutiful… well, damsel, who agrees to marry a handsome prince – only to discover it was all a trap: the royal family recruits her as a sacrifice to repay an ancient debt. She’s then thrown into a cave with a fire-breathing dragon, where she has to rely solely on her wits and will to survive. As Elodie fights alone in the bowels of the monster’s lair, she is the audience’s eyes and ears. “You feel that you are experiencing the journey of surviving and facing this creature with Elodie,” Fresnadillo says. “The emotional arc is so intense.”

Composer David Flemming (MR. & MRS. SMITH, THE LAST OF US, THE NIGHT LOGAN WOKE UP, BLUE PLANET II) provides the film’s score).

The film was scheduled to be released by Netflix on October 13, 2023; but it was postponed due to the impact of the 2023 SAG-AFTRA strike in the United States on the film’s promotion. The movie is now scheduled to be released by Netflix on March 8, 2024.
