Secret Society of Second-Born Royals gets Disney+ release date and new trailer

The story revolves around Sam, a rebellious princess to the kingdom of Illyria, living in the shadow of her older sister who is first in line to the throne.

Just as her interest in royal duty hits an all-time low, she discovers that she was born into a secret society of second-born royals, who are gifted with incredible powers and the responsibility of protecting the kingdom.

She and her peers are put through rigorous training at a secret facility, tasked with using their combined might to stop a mysterious villain from overthrowing the crown.
