James Franco will reunite with his Pineapple Express director David Gordon Green for medieval comedy Your Highness.

Written by Express star Danny McBride and Ben Best, the story involves two big-headed princes facing off against an evil wizard who has kidnapped their father and the older prince's fiancé, says Variety.

The Universal comedy is allegedly inspired by '80s fantasy films such as Krull and The Sword And The Sorcerer.

Shooting begins on Your Highness this July in Dublin. Scott Stuber is producing, while McBride will serve as executive producer.
