Annie: A Royal Adventure! (also known as Annie 2 or Annie 2: A Royal Adventure!) is a 1995 American comedy film and the sequel to the 1982 theatrical film Annie. It was released as a television film on ABC in the United States on November 18, 1995. The film has no songs apart from a reprise of "Tomorrow" sung at the end of the film, immediately after Daddy Warbucks is knighted.
None of the cast members from the previous film appear in this sequel. Annie, Daddy Warbucks, Molly, Punjab, Asp, Sandy, and Miss Hannigan are the only characters from the original to appear in this film. Grace, Rooster, Lilly and Mrs. Pugh are not in the sequel. Many of the original cast had either moved on to other projects or were too old for the sequel.[1]
Plot
A year after the 1982 film, twelve year old Annie Warbucks (Ashley Johnson), Oliver "Daddy" Warbucks (George Hearn), their dog Sandy, Annie's new friend Hannah (Emily Ann Lloyd), an eccentric scientist (Ian McDiarmid), and Annie's old friend Molly (Camilla Belle) (who is still an orphan but gets adopted by the Webb family in the end), travel to Britain, where Warbucks is to be knighted by His Majesty the King. However, the kids and their new English friend Michael Webb (George Wood) get mixed up in the scheme of an evil noblewoman known as Lady Edwina Hogbottom (Joan Collins) to blow up Buckingham Palace while all the heirs to the throne are present for Daddy Warbucks' knighting.
