Synopsis

'The School for Good and Evil' is a film based on the epic international bestsellers by Soman Chainani, directed by Paul Feig. It follows the lives of two misfit super friends, Sophie (Sophia Anne Caruso) and Agatha (Sofia Wylie), who share the most unlikely bond possible. Both living in a town called Gavaldon, Sophie is a blonde-haired seamstress who dreams of escaping the monotony to become a princess. Agatha, with her dull image, has the makings of a real witch. One night, under a blood-red moon, a strange force drags them to the School of Good and Evil, where the true stories of every great fairy tale begin. And yet, something goes wrong from the start: Sophie ends up in the School of Evil, and Agatha ends up in the School of Good. The headmaster (Laurence Fishburne) reveals that only a kiss from the love of his life can change the rules and the situation, sending each to the right school to fulfill their true destiny. But when a sinister and dangerous figure, who has mysterious ties to Sophie, resurfaces and threatens to take down the school and the entire magical world around her, the only possible happy ending is to survive their real-life fairy tale.

The film stars Sophia Anne Caruso, Sofia Wylie, Laurence Fishburne, Michelle Yeoh, Jamie Flatters, Kit Young, Peter Serafinowicz, Rob Delaney, Mark Heap, Patti LuPone and Rachel Bloom, with Kerry Washington and Charlize Theron. The cast also includes Earl Cave, Demi Isaac Oviawe, Freya Parks, Kaitlyn Akinpelumi, Holly Sturton, Emma Lau, Briony Scarlett, Ally Cubb, Rosie Graham, Joelle, Chinenye Ezeudu, Oliver Watson, Ali Khan, Myles Kamwendo and Misia Butler.
