The story begins with a young farmhand named Jack (Nicholas Hoult), who, in a bid to sell his horse to help support his family, inadvertently acquires a handful of magic beans. When one of these beans is accidentally watered, it sprouts into a gigantic beanstalk that reaches far into the sky, connecting the human world to the realm of giants.
When Princess Isabelle (Eleanor Tomlinson) is accidentally carried away by the beanstalk, Jack embarks on a daring quest to rescue her. He joins forces with a group of the king’s elite guards, led by the brave Elmont (Ewan McGregor), and the duplicitous Roderick (Stanley Tucci), who has his own nefarious plans involving the giants. As they ascend the beanstalk, they encounter a world filled with colossal dangers and discover that the giants, led by the fearsome General Fallon (Bill Nighy), are planning to descend to the human world and wreak havoc.
