What happens in A Cinderella Story: Once Upon a Song from start to finish, spoilers included, with a timeline of 13 key events. The opening is below; the full summary is a 3-minute read.
Spoilers ahead
Katie Gibbs, Lucy Hale, is a teenage aspiring singer who endures relentless pressure from her adoptive family—the Van Ravensways: Gail Van Ravensway, [Missi Pyle], Bev Van Ravensway, [Megan Park], and Victor Van Ravensway, [Matt Lintz]. Despite the cruelty, she clings to her dream and even daydreams of performing a music video for her breakout hit, Run This Town.
At the Wellesley Academy of the Arts, Gail’s school becomes a launchpad for a new opportunity when Guy Morgan, [Dikran Tulaine], the English president of Kensington Records, enrolls his son Luke Morgan, [Freddie Stroma], at the academy. Katie, hoping for real change, slips her demo into Guy’s briefcase, nudging him toward a showcase for Luke. Luke, however, isn’t eager to follow in his father’s footsteps.
