100 Nights of Hero: Nicholas Galitzine to Star in Fantasy Romance Movie

As a seasoned gamer with a penchant for both virtual and real-life adventures, I must say the casting of Nicholas Galitzine as Manfred in “100 Nights of Hero” has piqued my interest significantly! Having followed his impressive journey from “Cinderella” to “Red, White & Royal Blue,” I am eager to see him bring a lecherous villain to life.


Actor Nicholas Galitzine (from Cinderella, Bottoms) has been chosen to play one of the main characters in the forthcoming movie “100 Nights of Hero,” which is adapted from Isabel Greenberg’s fantasy romance graphic novel of the same name. This 2016 publication was influenced by the timeless collection of folktales, One Thousand and One Nights.

Most recently, Galitzine appeared in the Amazon MGM Studios’ romantic comedy film “The Idea of You,” starring alongside Anne Hathaway. Upcoming projects for Galitzine include a sequel to “Red, White & Royal Blue” (2023) where he will reprise his role as Prince Henry opposite Taylor Zakhar Perez as Alex Claremont-Diaz. Additionally, Galitzine has been chosen to embody the character of He-Man in Amazon MGM Studios and Mattel’s upcoming live-action “Masters of the Universe” movie.

Who will Nicholas Galitzine play in 100 Nights of Hero?

As reported by Deadline, the tale “100 Nights of Hero” is set in medieval times and revolves around two women, Cherry and her maid Hero, who are married to each other. Cherry’s malicious husband makes a wager with his friend Manfred: if Manfred can win Cherry’s affection within 100 nights, he will receive his castle and wife. Unbeknownst to them both, however, Cherry and Hero have secretly prepared a strategy to keep Manfred at bay by engaging him in captivating storytelling sessions over the course of the next 100 nights.

In this upcoming movie, Galitzine will take on the character of Manfred, a notoriously lewd antagonist. The film will be helmed by director Julia Jackman (Bonus Track), with Erebus Pictures, led by Helen Simmons and Stephanie Aspin, serving as producers. As of now, Galitzine is the sole confirmed actor for the project. Production is slated to commence towards the end of this month.

In the realm of Migdal Bavel, Cherry is wed to Jerome, a malevolent man who enters into a sinister bet with his companion Manfred: if Manfred succeeds in winning over Cherry within a hundred nights, he will claim Manfred’s castle and, moreover, Cherry herself. However, Jerome remains oblivious to the fact that Cherry harbors deep affection for their maid Hero. In response, they concoct a strategy: Hero, who belongs to the League of Confidential Storytellers, intends to keep Manfred occupied by narrating captivating tales night after night for a hundred nights, thereby preventing him from approaching Cherry. These stories are artfully presented here, exploring themes such as love, deceit, fidelity, and insanity.
