A reluctant monarch must learn to navigate his reality as the new King of England in Director David Mich么d鈥檚 historical drama, The King.
Mich么d鈥檚 film tells the story of Prince Hal (Timoth茅e Chalamet), who had turned his back on royal life to live among the people until the death of his tyrannical father. Now crowned King Henry V, the young ruler is forced to embrace the world he had previously tried to escape and must steer his way through palace politics, chaos and the war his father left behind.
