100 Nights of Hero is clearly a romantic fantasy, but the romance part of that gets a bit more weight in this first trailer. Sure, we get a tiny taste of Hero (Deadpool & Wolverine<\/a>\u2018s Emma Corrin) talking up her storytelling abilities, but most of the focus is on the battle of wills between Hero, Cherry (Longlegs<\/a>\u2018 Maika Monroe), and Manfred (future He-Man<\/a> Nicholas Galitzine)\u2014the latter of whom has been summoned by Cherry\u2019s husband to secretly test her loyalty while he\u2019s away, perhaps not realizing Cherry and Hero also have a rather strong attraction.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s at stake? Several hearts and at least one castle, from the looks of things. We are loving the lavish production design, especially the costumes and quirky hats, and the whimsical fairy tale quality.<\/p>\n

\u201cAny time you feel like you need rescuing, I\u2019ll tell a story,\u201d Hero tells Cherry in a tender moment, and later we see the stories become a way of coping with the predicament Cherry\u2019s husband has put everyone in. However, aside from a few quick glimpses, we don\u2019t get much on the stories in this trailer\u2014or characters we\u2019re particularly excited to meet played by Charlie XCX and a silver-haired Felicity Jones.<\/p>\n

Written and directed by Julia Jackman and based on Isabela Greenberg\u2019s acclaimed graphic novel, The One Hundred Nights of Hero, the movie also features Amir El-Masry and Richard E. Grant. 100 Nights of Hero hits theaters December 5.<\/p>\n
