故事发生在1660年的法国，国王路易（理查德·查伯兰 Richard Chamberlain 饰）整日沉湎于酒色之中，无心朝政，使臣民们生活在水深火热之中。路易有一个孪生弟弟名为菲利普（理查德·查伯兰 Richard Chamberlain 饰），史书中记载的菲利普刚刚出生便已夭折，可实际上，他被偷偷送往阿尔卑斯山的一个庄园中，隐姓埋名，生长在此。 　　国王的昏庸让内务大臣科贝尔（拉尔夫·理查德森 Ralph Richardson 饰）和火枪手队长达达尼昂（路易斯·乔丹 Louis Jourdan 饰）感到大为不满，他们决定找到菲利普，扶持他推翻哥哥的统治，登上王位。贪婪的财政大臣富凯（帕特里克·麦高汉 Patrick McGoohan 饰）早先一步找到了菲利普，他和国王一起设计，给菲利普带上铁面，投入了深牢之中。 Paris is starving, but the King of France is more interested in money and bedding women. When a young soldier dies for the sake of a shag, Aramis, Athos and Porthos band together with a plan to replace the king. Unknown to many, there is a 2nd king, a twin, hidden at birth, then imprisoned for 6 years behind an iron mask. All that remains now is D'Artagnan, will he stand against his long time friends, or do what is best for his country?

D'Artagnan stands still as the young Musketeers under his command come rushing up with swords drawn.
YOUNG MUSKETEER: Captain!
Seeing the dead assassin, their eyes fill with admiration.
YOUNG MUSKETEER: You are the best -- D'Artagnan can't even listen; with a last glance at the King he turns quickly and walks away.
INT. FORTRESS PRISON The Man in the Iron Mask sits on the floor. A key rattles in the lock and his keeper shuffles in, carrying food.
KEEPER:
Food, moron.
MAN IN THE IRON MASK Thank you, Keeper.
Not watching what he's doing, the bulbous keeper trips on something and stumbles, dropping the food. The prisoner jumps to his feet, concerned.
KEEPER:
Look what you've done!
He picks up the tray and slings it at the prisoner.
MAN IN THE IRON MASK I'm sorry, Keeper... The keeper looks for what he tripped on -- a worn Bible. He snatches it up and grabs a hunk of pages from its middle.
MAN IN THE IRON MASK No, Keeper, it's my only book!
Hearing the pleading in the prisoner's voice, the keeper looks squarely at him -- and rips out the pages.
MAN IN THE IRON MASK What number did you tear out?
KEEPER:
Eh?
MAN IN THE IRON MASK What number, on the first page?
KEEPER:
... Two-thirty-seven.
MAN IN THE IRON MASK Two-thirty-seven: "... And the descendants of Japeth are these: Obediah, Zebulon, Hezekiah..." As the prisoner rattles off the names of Biblical genealogy, the jailer gawks at the pages in his hand.
KEEPER:
You've... memorized...?
MAN IN THE IRON MASK What was the end page?
As the keeper is speechless, the prisoner looks for himself.
MAN IN THE IRON MASK Six-two-one: "... Though I speak with the tongues of men and angels, and have not love, I am but a clanging cymbal or --" The Keeper staggers in shock; the prisoner bubbles with joy.
MAN IN THE IRON MASK We're playing, Keeper! A game!
Take another page, any page! Keeper and I are playing a game!
And the prisoner takes the keeper's fat hands in his own and begins to dance and sing.
