Spellbound follows the adventures of Ellian, the tenacious young daughter of the rulers of Lumbria, who must go on a daring quest to save her family and kingdom after a mysterious spell transforms her parents into monsters. In this Goggler exclusive, we sat down with Tituss Burgess and Nathan Lane to talk about their characters, working together and improv.

Spellbound premieres on Netflix on November 22.

On the eve of her 15th birthday, Ellian should be celebrating like royalty. Instead, the tenacious young daughter of the rulers of Lumbria harbors a secret: a mysterious spell has transformed her parents, Queen Ellsmere and King Solon, into monsters. 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.

Spellbound was directed by Vicky Jenson, with an original score from EGOT-winning composer Alan Menken and lyrics by Glenn Slater. The movie stars Rachel Zegler, Nicole Kidman, Javier Bardem, John Lithgow, Jenifer Lewis, Nathan Lane, and Tituss Burgess.
