New Delhi: A follow-up to Kristoffer Rus’s popular family film Too Old for Fairy Tales, “Too Old for Fairy Tales 2” explores the transformative power of friendship, exploration, and feeling.
Based on the book Za duży na bajki by Agnieszka Dąbrowska, the coming-of-age comedy film Too Old for Fairy Tales (Polish name Za duzy na bajki) was directed by Kristoffer Rus. A young gaming star named Waldek has his priorities shaken when his mother’s eccentric aunt shows up, and the film follows him.
An entertaining and thought-provoking tale about friendship, confronting hardships head-on, and telling the truth, Too Old for Fairy Tales 2 is perfect for the whole family. Maciej Karaś, Amelia Fijałkowska, and Patryk Siemek reunited on set after their respective roles as Waldek, Delfina, and Staszek, respectively.
The Polish theatrical premiere of Too Old for Fairy Tales took place on March 18, 2022, while the worldwide Netflix release took place on July 18, 2022. Polish theaters opened Too Old for Fairy Tales 2 on March 15, 2024, and on June 1, 2024, the film will be available on Netflix.
Plot
The prequel of the film focuses on Waldek’s life and is mostly about video games. In the absence of his mother, he is left in the care of his crazy and unpredictable aunt, who teaches him responsibility and discipline.
Fans’ favourite gaming trio—Waldek, Staszek, and Delfina—returns in this film’s second instalment. The summer in Tatra Mountain will be full of exciting adventures for them. Waldek unearths the fact that his long-absent father resides in the area throughout the journey.
They embarked on their expedition along with Staszek when it was still dark. But what Delfina must accomplish is even worse than the dangers of the mountain trek. Because her aunt, Waldek’s mother, and her new companion are all investigating the boys’ disappearance, the imaginative adolescent must keep quiet.
