Secret Society of Second Born Royals follows Sam, a teenage royal rebel second in line to the throne of the kingdom of Illyria. Just as Sam’s disinterest in the royal way of life is at an all-time high, she discovers she has super-human abilities and is invited to join a secret society of similar extraordinary second-born royals charged with keeping the world safe.
With guidance from their Secret Society instructor James, Sam and a new class of royal recruits must first learn to harness their new powers at a top-secret training camp before they can save the world.
Secret Society of Second-Born Royals follows Sam (Lee), a rebellious teenage royal who unknowingly develops superpowers from a genetic trait attributed only to second-borns of royal lineage. Second-in-line to the throne of the kingdom of Illyria, Sam constantly questions what it means to be royal and wants to create her own legacy. Unlike Sam’s picture-perfect older sister Eleanor (Liao) who will become the next queen, Sam would rather rock out with her bandmate and best friend Mike (Lomax) at an illegal protest or ditch a royal engagement for a wild night out.
Fed up with her daughter’s misbehavior, Queen Catherine (Yung) sends Sam to a summer boarding school where she and four other second-born royals – Tuma (Fitch), Roxana (Deeble), January (Thomas) and Matteo (Rakotohavana) – discover they have unique super-human abilities and are invited to join a secret society with a longstanding tradition of covertly keeping the peace. With a new sense of purpose and a little help from their Secret Society instructor James (Astin), Sam and her fellow royal recruits must learn to harness their newfound powers and work together as a team before they can save the world.
Secret Society of Second-Born Royals will premiere on July 17 on Disney+!
