The trailer for the new season of The Two Princes from Gimlet (a Spotify company) features the voices of Noah Galvin (Waitress, Dear Evan Hansen) and Tony Winner Ari'el Stachel (The Band’s Visit). The second season drops in its entirety December 11.
This season, Princes Rupert (Galvin) and Amir (Stachel) are getting ready to begin a happily ever and unite their two rival kingdoms—but an evil sorceress has other plans. Last season, the young men met and fell in love despite initial protestations from their families and subjects. Now, they’ll have to put their wedding on hold to save the realm.
