This is it! This is real! Teases the teaser for the new fantasy movie, The School for Good and Evil on Netflix. Soman Chainani is the author of the best-selling franchise of the same name. The book has sold over 2.5 million copies. The movie looks like a combination of Harry Potter and Snow White. And no, it’s not because of Charlize Theron. Sure, she’s one of the reasons, but then there is a half-bitten apple, glass sandals and one of the main characters looks like she’s modeled after Cinderella. 

The school of magic where heroes and villains are trained

Unlike Hogwarts, which had four factions, The School for Good and Evil on Netflix has only two – good and bad. And best friends Sophie and Agatha quickly find out where the fairytale legacies go for schooling when a mysterious creature sweeps them off (literally) to a faraway land into a mystical school. The setting of the school does look like Hogwarts! But there’s no cursed child here and no prophecy. However, there’s misunderstanding and adventure as the two girls find themselves on the wrong sides of the battle. 

Sophie knew she was meant for the School for Good but has to train under Lady Lesso who heads School for Evil. On the other hand, Agatha is dropped in School for Good, where Professor Dovey oversees the training. Their fate and friendship are tested when a dark and mysterious figure arises, which has a link to Sophie’s past. To make matters worse, the duo learns that the only way to swap school is to get a kiss from their true love. So we’re not so off about the Snow White thing after all!
