Hella CINDERELLA is Writer-Director Kay Cannon’s shot across the bow

In case you forgot the original ‘say yes to the dress’ scenario, writer-director Kay Cannon has some new ideas. This musical CINDERELLA has a grounded yet gorgeous Camila Cabello as an entrepreneurial designer saddled with some extra baggage, and not the Louis Vuitton kind. With this reboot comes a slate of re-purposed cover songs to make it extra winsome and updated.

Starry cast includes gifted songbird Idina Menzel, the unsinkable Minnie Driver, Nicholas Galitzine, with Billy Porter and, inevitably, the always dashing Pierce Brosnan.

Oh, and James Corden plays a footloose foot-mouse, but also serves as a producer with Leo Pearlman, Jonathan Kadin and Shannon McIntosh, and executive producers Louise Rosner and Josephine Rose. 

Here’s a first swatch from Amazon

Wise words from CINDERELLA Writer/Director Kay Cannon:

“While so many elements of the classic Cinderella tale are timeless, I really wanted to reach a new generation through contemporary touches on many of the aspects that felt outdated. The opportunity to turn some of those classic tropes on their heads was exciting to me, and I couldn’t wait to retell this in a way that’s more relatable to what girls, including my almost-eight-year-old daughter, and young women are going through today. Our Cinderella is not just some pretty face waiting to be saved by a prince. She’s vocal, active, fearless and witty; she has dreams and craves independence. Her main priority is her career in a time when women couldn’t have one. Our Cinderella is someone that parents can watch their kids look up to in a new way, and my hope is that families will laugh, dance, and sing while watching this movie together. If ya know the words, let me hear ya!” – Kay
