In case that first red-band trailer for Your Highness didn't sell you on Danny McBride's ability to play a lecherous medieval prince, Universal has released a second red-band trailer for David Gordon Green's fantasy comedy due in theaters April 8. In the second red-band promo (third trailer total), Natalie Portman plants a kiss on Danny McBride and a gaggle of topless nymphs chase James Franco through the woods, but does the studio accidentally uncover a major plot twist that could spoil the movie for viewers?

No, unless that plot point involves Portman cavorting in a thong lakeside to the delight of Danny McBride and James Franco's characters. Unlike the first trailer (which featured her thong briefly) and the second trailer (which gave the Oscar-winner a more modest bikini bottom), the third trailer showcases the Black Swan actress's thong scene more prominently (like you didn't notice the freeze-frame of her diving into the water). Good thing she already won that Oscar, amirite? There's also more pot smoking, penis jokes and scantily clad females. Remember when David Gordon Green directed things like All the Real Girls and George Washington?
VERDICT: James Franco can't blame Bruce Vilanch if this flops.
