Julie Andrews has joined The King’s Daughter as narrator as Arclight Films introduces the Louis XIV fantasy drama to buyers heading into the virtual Cannes market later this month.

Pierce Brosnan stars as the Sun King alongside Kaya Scodelario from Skins and the Pirates Of The Caribbean franchise.

The film, previously known as The Moon And The Sun, imagines a quest for immortality by the megalomaniacal king – whose reign spanned the 17th and 18th centuries – as he captures and steals a mermaid’s life force.
