This is our world, where we can fight the forces of evil and where anything is possible.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>However we soon see that the actual playground \u2013 which she and her friends <span lang=\"EN-GB\">nickname The Kingdom<\/span> \u2013 isn\u2019t quite as glamorous as her imagination makes it out to be, and that plans are afoot to do something about it.<\/p> <p>\u201cThe neglected land at the end of your road has long been an eyesore,\u201d says a character known as Clipboard, played by James Bond star Naomie Harris. \u201cOur redevelopment project changes all that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut what about The Kingdom?\u201d we then hear Robin ask, before she later tells one of her friends: \u201cDon\u2019t you get it? It\u2019s not you versus me, it\u2019s us versus them,\u201d and is seen to galvanise the rest of the gang.<\/p>\n<p>You can watch the full trailer \u2013 which also introduces characters played by <a
