The Prisoner of Zenda

A British tourist is unexpectedly catapulted into royalty when his royal cousin, next in line for the throne, vanishes, leaving him to impersonate the future monarch.

English tourist Rudolf Rassendyll is unexpectedly approached to impersonate King Rudolf V at his coronation due to their striking resemblance. He agrees to prevent his half-brother Michael from seizing the throne. Rudolf becomes embroiled in a battle for control over the king, his throne, and his bride, Princess Flavia, as Michael and his co-conspirator Rupert of Hentzau seek to claim the throne.
