"Based on the graphic novel by Isabel Greenberg, Julia Jackman's film features the Masters of the Universe He-man star again seducing royalty, as he did in Red, White & Royal Blue. The novel is inspired by the legendary collection of folk tales, One Thousand and One Nights, and focuses on two women in love, Cherry and Hero. A synopsis for the film reads: "When her neglectful husband departs after placing a secret wager to test her fidelity, Cherry (Maika Monroe) and her sharp-witted maid, Hero (Corrin), must fend off a dangerously seductive visitor: Manfred (Galitzine).""
"The trailer establishes the key relationship between Cherry and Hero and we see the bet being set up, with Manfred's potential prize being a castle and "everything in it". From there, Manfred tries to seduce Cherry by - having lost his shirt along the way - dragging a stag's carcass up a gravel path, as well as offering water to Cherry. Despite Hero's interventions, Cherry seems to succumb to Manfred's moves."
Julia Jackman's 100 Nights of Hero adapts Isabel Greenberg's graphic novel inspired by One Thousand and One Nights. The film stars Nicholas Galitzine as Manfred, Maika Monroe as Cherry and Emma Corrin as Hero, with a brief appearance by Charli XCX. The plot centers on a neglectful husband's secret wager to test Cherry's fidelity, leaving Cherry and her sharp-witted maid to resist Manfred's seductive attempts. The trailer shows Manfred seeking a castle and "everything in it" through staged displays like dragging a stag carcass and offering water. Despite Hero's interventions, Cherry appears to waver. The film premiered at Venice and opens in the US on December 5, followed by a UK release in January.
