Much like a fairly well-known school of wizards and witches, “The School for Good and Evil” boasts an impressive teaching staff of talent to help our heroes and villains find their path. Charlize Theron is the not-so-nice Lady Lesso, while Kerry Washington is the good and pure Professor Dovey. There’s also the always-welcome addition of Michelle Yeoh as Professor Anemone, and keeping an eye on it all is the legendary Laurence Fishburne as the Schoolmaster who has every chance of giving even Dumbledore a run for his money. Anyone that wants to argue this can meet us in the playground after school.

Naturally, this being another tale that takes from other familiar fairy tales, we see a host of characters linked to well-known characters as well. Jamie Flatters plays the son of King Arthur, Freya Parks portrays the daughter of the witch from “Hansel and Gretel,” and Earl Cave plays the offspring of one of Captain Hook’s trusty fellow pirates.
