Entertainment Film Distributors has just debuted Curtis Vowell‘s (Baby Done) comedy road movie set in Dark Age Britain, Seize Them!
Helmed by Vowell, from a script penned by Andy Riley (Gnomeo & Juliet, The Boy in the Dress) , Seize Them! brims with warmth, humour and swordfights as it centres on Queen Dagan (Aimee Lou Wood – Living, “Sex Education”), an egotistical yet lonely monarch, whose reign is toppled by the charismatic Humble Joan (Nicola Coughlan – Barbie, “Bridgerton”) and the treacherous Leofwine (Jessica Hynes – Shaun of the Dead, Paddington 2). Now a fugitive with a hefty bounty on her head, the Queen embarks on a quest to regain the throne with the help of Shulmay (Lolly Adefope – Saltburn, “Ghosts”), a castle worker with mysterious motives, and Bobik (Nick Frost – Shaun of the Dead, Fighting with My Family), a shit shoveler who dreams of a grander life. Her new friends and wild adventures make her question the kind of Queen she wants to be.
The film also features James Acaster (Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire), Paul Kaye (“Game of Thrones”, “The Stranger”) and John Macmillan (“The Burning Girls”, “One Day”).
Seize Them! opens in UK & Irish cinemas this 5th APRIL 2024 and in the meantime, we’ll leave you to enjoy a right royal laugh with the first official trailer for the film.
