All the in-jokes, the bizarre encounters, and the recklessly stupid decisions available in gameplay shouldn’t work in a movie but they actually do. DnDMovie

isn’t one story. It’s a tabletop role-playing game that players and their drunk idiot friends can take in any direction imaginable. There are countless existing narratives that can be adapted, but those stories are only starting points. Chances are slim that any studio or filmmaker correctly guesses what D&D fans might want in a movie adaptation. The in-jokes, the bizarre encounters, the recklessly stupid decisions that shouldn’t work but do—they’re all bespoke to each player’s experience.

Our heroes, from Chris Pine’s bard Edgin to Justice Smith’s sorcerer Simon, form an unlikely party with existing interconnected allegiances, grudges, and relationships. Some of them would die for each other. Some can’t stand each other. And they’re all thrust together by just-plausible-enough circumstances. In other words, it’s just as chaotic and silly as your typical D&D game.
