Netflix’s cheesiest Christmas film of 2018, The Princess Switch, is getting a sequel, and in the festive name of mince pies and eggnog, we have never been so excited.
For those unfamiliar with the original film, American commoner Stacy (Vanessa Hudgens) and her business partner Kevin (Nick Sagar), are invited to the fictional city of Belgravia by the royal family to compete in a baking competition. It’s here that she meets Margaret, the Duchess of Montenaro (also Hudgens), who upon realising that they look exactly the same, asks Stacy to switch lives in the weeks leading up to her wedding to Prince Edward (Sam Palladio). As fate would have it, Stacy falls in love with Prince Edward, and Margaret ends up confessing her love to Kevin, and the whole film turns into a royal wife swap (kinda).
As a Christmas film it ticked all of the boxes – Christmas baking, love squares, and a rags-to-riches story line – and as fate would have it, their narrative continues.
