'''''Quest for Camelot''''' (released internationally as '''''The Magic Sword: Quest for Camelot''''') is a 1998 American animated [[Musical film|musical]] [[fantasy film]] produced by [[Warner Bros. Feature Animation]], directed by [[Frederik Du Chau]], and very loosely based on the 1976 novel ''[[The King's Damosel]]'' by [[Vera Chapman]]. It features the voices of [[Jessalyn Gilsig]], [[Cary Elwes]], [[Gary Oldman]], [[Eric Idle]], [[Don Rickles]], [[Jaleel White]], [[Jane Seymour (actress)|Jane Seymour]], [[Pierce Brosnan]], [[Bronson Pinchot]], [[Gabriel Byrne]], [[John Gielgud]] (in his final film role), [[Frank Welker]], and Sarah Rayne. [[Andrea Corr]], [[Bryan White]], [[Celine Dion]], and [[Steve Perry]] perform the singing voices for Gilsig, Elwes, Seymour, and Brosnan. The story follows the adventurous Kayley (Gilsig), whose father was a [[Knight of the Round Table]] killed by the power-hungry Sir Ruber (Oldman). Ruber renews his attempt to usurp [[Camelot]] from [[King Arthur]] (Brosnan) by stealing Arthur's sword [[Excalibur]], but the plan goes awry. Kayley enlists the help of the blind hermit Garrett (Elwes) and a two-headed [[dragon]], Devon and Cornwall (Idle and Rickles), to help her retrieve the sword and save the kingdom.

Initially titled ''The Quest for the [[Holy Grail]]'', the film was announced in May 1995 as [[Warner Bros. Feature Animation]]'s first project. [[Bill Kroyer]] and Du Chau were tapped to jointly direct the film. It began production later that year, but it faced  delay when animators were reassigned to help finish ''[[Space Jam]]'' (1996). During the interim, the story was heavily re-tooled, including changing the central focus from the Holy Grail being to Excalibur. Creative differences spurred by these alterations resulted in prominent members of the animation and management staff, including Kroyer, leaving the project. Due to its troubled production, the film's release was six months later than intended, from November 1997 to May 1998. Animation was mostly done in [[Glendale, California]] and in [[London]].<ref name="BoxofficeGrail">{{cite news |last=Mallory |first=Michael |title=Warner Bros. searches for boxoffice grail |url=https://variety.com/1997/film/news/warner-bros-searches-for-boxoffice-grail-111662043/ |work=[[Variety (magazine)|Variety]] |date=November 17, 1997 |access-date=September 8, 2017 |archive-date=September 9, 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170909095918/http://variety.com/1997/film/news/warner-bros-searches-for-boxoffice-grail-111662043/ |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite interview |last=Kenyon |first=Heather |url= https://www.awn.com/mag/issue3.1/3.1pages/3.1kenyonhoward.html |title=An Afternoon with Max Howard, President, Warner Bros.

==Plot==
<!--Per WP: FILMPLOT, plot summaries should be between 400 and 700 words.-->
[[Sir Lionel]], a [[knight]] of the [[Round Table]], is killed foiling an [[assassination]] attempt on [[King Arthur]] by the evil Sir Ruber, who is then driven off by [[Excalibur]], Arthur's sword. Later, while at Lionel's funeral, Arthur tells Lionel's daughter Kayley and his widow Juliana that they will always be welcome at [[Camelot]]. Kayley dreams of becoming a knight, like her father, and she trains herself while working on their farm.

A decade later, Ruber's [[griffin]] attacks Camelot and steals Excalibur and injures Arthur. [[Merlin]] the wizard's pet falcon Ayden attacks the griffin, causing it to drop the sword into the Forbidden Forest. The griffin is driven away by the forest's sentient trees. When Kayley learns what has occurred, she embarks on her own search for Excalibur, which leads to an argument with her mother. Ruber attacks the farm, capturing Kayley and Juliana. He plans to use them to gain entry to Camelot. He uses a potion he acquired from witches to fuse his henchmen with their weapons and a henpecked [[rooster]] named Bladebeak. After hearing Ruber's plans, Kayley escapes to the forest, pursued by the steel men and Bladebeak. She is saved by a [[visual impairment|blind]] [[hermit]] Garrett and Ayden. They decide to search for Excalibur, and Kayley persuades him to let her join the quest. Ruber learns of this from Bladebeak and decides to follow them in order to obtain Excalibur.

Kayley and Garrett encounter a wisecracking two-headed [[dragon]] Devon and Cornwall. Its two heads dislike each other and dream of being separated. They can neither fly nor breathe fire. They escape from a group of attacking dragons, who are taken out by Ruber and his henchmen. Devon and Cornwall join their quest. During a night of rest (much to Kayley's reluctance), Garrett reveals he was once a [[stable boy]] in Camelot who dreamt of becoming a knight. While saving horses from a fire, he was kicked in the head which caused his blindness. Following the accident, Lionel still believed in Garrett and trained him personally. Garrett teaches Kayley more about the forest, including the existence of magical healing plants.

The next day, they discover Excalibur's belt and scabbard (but not the sword) in a giant footprint. Kayley's frustrated ranting causes Garrett to miss Ayden's signal, and he is injured by Ruber's men. Kayley uses the sentient trees to trap Ruber and his men. She escorts Garrett into a remote cave where she uses a healing plant to heal his wounds. The two reconcile and profess their love for each other. The next day, the group goes into a giant cave where a rock-like [[ogre]] holds Excalibur, using it as a toothpick. They recover Excalibur and flee from Ruber in the process.

After reaching the end of the forest, Garrett decides to stay behind, claiming he does not belong in Camelot. He gives Excalibur to Kayley. However, Ruber captures Kayley. He takes Excalibur and melds it to his right arm before imprisoning Kayley in the wagon with her mother. Devon and Cornwall witness this. They rush to Garrett and convince him to save Kayley. By working together for the first time, Devon and Cornwall are able to fly and breathe fire, and they transport Garrett to Camelot by flight. Bladebeak reconciles with his constantly henpecking [[Chicken|hen]] and frees Kayley from her ropes. She warns the guards of Ruber's trap, exposing him and his steel men. Garrett, Devon and Cornwall arrive shortly after to aid her. 

Kayley and Garrett enter the castle while Devon and Cornwall rescue Ayden from the griffin by breathing fire at the creature. Inside, Kayley and Garrett find Ruber attempting to kill Arthur with Excalibur. They intervene and trick Ruber into returning Excalibur to its stone, causing its magic to vaporize Ruber, revert his henchmen (including Bladebeak) back to normal and temporarily separate Devon and Cornwall, but they decide to end up back together again. Later, with Camelot and Excalibur restored to their former glory, Kayley and Garrett marry and become knights of the Round Table before they ride off into the distance together on their horse.

==Production==
In May 1995, ''The Quest for the Grail'' was [[Warner Bros. Feature Animation]]'s first announced project. [[Bill Kroyer]] and [[Frederik Du Chau]] were announced as the directors, with Sue Kroyer serving as co-producer. Elizabeth Chandler, who had co-written the screenplay for ''[[A Little Princess (1995 film)|A Little Princess]]'' (1995), was enlisted to write the script, but was eventually replaced by a trio of writers before [[Kirk DeMicco]] eventually got the job (who would go on to direct animated features such as the 2023 film ''[[Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken]]''). The initial story centered around a young female character named Susannah, who embarks on a dangerous quest for the [[Holy Grail]] to save her sister from [[Red Knight|a ruthless and powerful knight]].<ref>{{cite news|last=Berman|first=Art|url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1995-05-26-ca-6143-story.html|title=Movies: Warners Does a Disney|newspaper=[[Los Angeles Times]]|date=May 26, 1995|access-date=September 8, 2017|archive-date=May 24, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210524171255/https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1995-05-26-ca-6143-story.html|url-status=live}}</ref> According to [[Lauren Faust]], who was an animator for the film, it was initially envisioned with a [[Motion Picture Association film rating system#Ratings|PG-13 rating]] and was meant to draw homage to [[Ralph Bakshi]]'s ''[[Wizards (film)|Wizards]]'' (1977), but it was changed to be more family-friendly to compete with the [[Disney Renaissance]] films.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2011-05-11 |title=Why Lauren Faust Hated Camelot |url=https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13051478140A91478000 |access-date=2024-02-14 |website=[[TV Tropes]] |archive-date=March 19, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240319220531/https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=13051478140A91478000 |url-status=live }}</ref>

The film was put into production before the story was finalized. However, during the fall of 1995, the animators were reassigned to finish ''[[Space Jam]]'' (1996). Meanwhile, in April 1996, [[Christopher Reeve]] was cast as King Arthur.<ref name="Reeve">{{cite press release|url=https://www.thefreelibrary.com/Christopher+Reeve+signed+to+provide+character+voice+for+Warner+Bros....-a018146804|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170909095622/https://www.thefreelibrary.com/Christopher+Reeve+signed+to+provide+character+voice+for+Warner+Bros....-a018146804|title=Christopher Reeve signed to provide character voice for Warner Bros.

In particular, Excalibur replaced the Holy Grail, which Warner Bros. Feature Animation president [[Max Howard]] felt better reflected the film's setting: "The symbol of Camelot is the power of Excalibur, and that became a more interesting theme: Whoever held the sword, held the power."<ref name="BoxofficeGrail" /> By the middle of 1996, the Kroyers were allegedly fired by Howard,<ref name="MisguidedQuest">{{cite news|last=Wells|first=Jeffrey|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/60193384/article-about-quest-for-camelot/|title=A Misguided 'Quest'?|newspaper=[[The Record (Bergen County)|The Record]]|page=41|via=[[Newspapers.com]]|date=February 27, 1998|access-date=November 25, 2018}} {{Open access}}</ref> who later moved on to developing another project at Warner Bros.

In an article in ''[[Animation Magazine]]'', Chrystal Klabunde, the leading animator of Garrett, stated, "It was top heavy. All the executives were happily running around and playing executive, getting corner offices—but very few of them had any concept about animation at all, about doing an animated film. It never occurred to anybody at the top that they had to start from the bottom and build that up. The problems were really coming at the inexperience of everyone involved. Those were people from [[Walt Disney Animation Studios|Disney]] that had the idea that you just said, 'Do it,' and it gets done. It never occurred to them that it got done because Disney had an infrastructure in place, working like clockwork. We didn't have that."<ref name=beck/>{{rp|218}} Reportedly, "cost overruns and production nightmares" led the studio to "reconsider their commitment to feature animation."<ref name=Miller/> Filmmaker [[Brad Bird]] (who directed ''[[The Iron Giant]]'', Warner Bros.' next animated film) thought that micromanaging, which he said had worked well for Disney but not for Warner Bros., had been part of the problem.<ref name=Miller>{{cite web |url=http://mag.awn.com/index.php?article_no=1185 |title=Lean, Mean Fighting Machine: How Brad Bird Made The Iron Giant |access-date=December 9, 2008 |last=Miller |first=Bob |date=August 1, 1999 |work=Animation World Magazine |publisher=[[Animation World Network]] |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090203154900/http://mag.awn.com/index.php?article_no=1185 |archive-date=February 3, 2009|url-status=dead }}</ref>

The film was mainly animated at the main Warner Bros.

On the soundtrack, "The Prayer" was performed separately by [[Celine Dion]] in [[English language|English]], and by [[Andrea Bocelli]] in [[Italian language|Italian]]. The now better-known Dion-Bocelli duet in both languages first appeared in October 1998 on Dion's Christmas album ''[[These Are Special Times]]''; it was also released as a single in March 1999 and on Bocelli's album ''[[Sogno]]'' in April 1999.

"[[Looking Through Your Eyes]]" was the lead single for the soundtrack.

==Adaptations==
===Stage adaptation===
{{Main|Quest for Camelot Nights}}
Prior to the release of the film, [[Warner Bros.]] had plans to make a stage adaptation of the film that would tour around to different [[renaissance fair]]s throughout the [[United States]], as well as a nightly fireworks show for [[Six Flags Great Adventure]]. Both shows were designed by SLG Design & Creative Talent and Steve Gilliam.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://faculty.trinity.edu/sgilliam/SLG/QUEST/homepage.html|title=Quest for Camelot Tour|website=Trinity College|access-date=January 19, 2019|archive-date=September 14, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180914022909/http://faculty.trinity.edu/sgilliam/SLG/QUEST/homepage.html|url-status=live}}</ref>

The touring aspect of the project was cancelled soon after the film's release due to poor box office performance and the tour's anticipated cost, but the nightly firework show did end up coming to fruition. [[Quest for Camelot Nights]] debuted at Six Flags Great Adventure in 1998, and ran through 2001.

The show told the story of the film, with much of the film's main characters appearing as live characters in the show. The film's musical numbers were acted out with scenes from the film displayed with projections onto the show's "water curtains".<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.georgefledo.net/Quest%20for%20Camelot.htm|title=Quest for Camelot|website=George F.
