"It's a combination of The Simpsons, Lord of the Rings, and American Grafitti," says 'Disenchantment' writer Josh Weinstein

The animated Netflix original stars Abbi Jacobson, Nat Faxon, Eric André in the three lead roles of Princes Bean, Elfo, and the demon, Luci, respectively.

Picture this - a progressive, humor-laden comedy at par with The Simpsons and Futurama, set in the medieval times of Game of Thrones. Sounds exciting right? And believe it or not - it is every bit as promising as the aforementioned shows turned out to be. Such is the aura of Matt Groening's latest, upcoming venture - Disenchantment. Co-written with Josh Weinstein, the show follows the story of a medieval princess - certainly not your regular princess, in that she chugs beer like a fish and holds gambling a dear hobby. Living in a patriarchal kingdom, she knows she can never rule, but Princess Bean here wants a life far away from all of this. So who is her escort in the journey? An elf and a demon.
