Barbie: Princess Adventure (also known as Barbie Princess Adventure or Barbie Princess Adventures) is a 2020 computer-animated musical adventure comedy children's/family streaming television film directed by Conrad Helten and written by Ann Austen.[3][4]

The film was produced by Mattel Television (previously Mattel Creations) with Mainframe Studios, and was first released on September 1, 2020, on Netflix in the United States.[5][6][2] It is the 37th entry in the Barbie film series, preceded by Barbie: Dolphin Magic in 2017.[7]

Production[]

It is the first film adaptation of the streaming TV series, Barbie: Dreamhouse Adventures, as Dolphin Magic was marketed by Mattel as the pilot to the TV series.[8]

Plot[]

Barbie takes a road trip to the Kingdom of Floravia, after being invited by Floravia's princess Amelia. Barbie discovers that Amelia, whose life is rigidly controlled by her royal advisor Alfonso, wants to switch places with her for a week because the two look almost identical. Barbie agrees, and Amelia goes to enjoy a week of freedom before her coronation. Amelia is kidnapped by her fiancé Prince Johan, who uncovered the ruse and wants to force Amelia to marry him so he can rule both his country and Floravia. Barbie rescues Amelia, and they foil Johan's plot. Afterwards, Amelia is coronated, and both Barbie and Amelia agree to remain true to themselves.
