Spellbound premieres on Netflix on November 22.
On the eve of her 15th birthday, Ellian (Rachel Zegler) should be celebrating like royalty.

When they escape the palace, panic spreads throughout the kingdom and Ellian must go on a daring quest to undo the spell before it’s too late. But she quickly learns that even if she succeeds, her family may still be changed forever.
