Today, we’re chatting about a crown princess who becomes a prisoner in her own home and sets out to change her fate; a woman who gets pulled into a cult horror film that is determined to have a sequel; a podcaster and producer who fall in love over email without realizing they know (and hate) each other in real life; and a woman stuck in a holiday romance movie who must complete the plot to get back home.
