FAQs

The contrasting personalities of Princess Poppy and Branch are the engine of Trolls. Poppy's unyielding optimism and Branch's deep-seated cynicism create immediate friction, providing much of the film's humour and dramatic tension.

This evolving, often exasperated, partnership is what makes their quest compelling and ultimately rewarding to watch.
