Disney to bring Cinderella back in live action

[Sawyer]

OK, just as long as it's not creepy.

Because it's not like Jennifer Lawrence is playing love interest to guys nearly twice her age or anything...

Lily James and Richard Madden. What a boring cast!

Even the bad Red Riding Hood had a more interesting actress in the lead.
I think either the title character or the prince should be played by someone more noticeable.

Are the fairy tale adaptions being watered down now, as they can't attract bigger names?

Will there be a Red Wedding?!

Helena Bonham Carter will be playing the Fairy Godmother in this film:

She probably took that role because she's tired of little kids screaming and running away from her all the time.

From a deranged Voldemort follower to 'Bibbi Bobbi Boo'... now that's a journey in itself.

I'm kind of happy with this casting.

 

[Sawyer]

I think this is probably a role they could conceivably weird up for her. Not extremely, but so it's sort of closer to her shtick. What was more shocking to me was seeing a picture of her as Liz Taylor a few weeks back. I'm not used to seeing her looking glam at all...

Now that is a teaser. Though you just know some idiot will be like, "so the story is about glass heels?"

 

[Sawyer]

Well, this is internet after all...

 

[Loki882]

Watching Cate Blanchett as the wicked stepmother is going to so much fun.

 

[Airwings]

The teaser captures the magic more than I would have guessed. My hopes rocketed to the sky now

 

[Lencho01]

The teaser made me not want to watch the film.

 

[Lord]

Well, there were some pretty dumb comments on youtube, one even stated that this was Disney trying to catch on Frozen's success, when the film was in development long before that, it actually has more to do with the success of Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland.

 

[mclay18]

The score for that teaser is definitely from the composer, Patrick Doyle, who's regularly collaborated with Kenneth Branagh on every film he's done.

It sounds beautiful and whimsical.

 

[mclay18]

The movie's completed -- it's got the coveted PG rating.

Seems strange to have a completed movie done this early, and without any actual footage in the trailer. I think they may move this up.

Very nice.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

I almost forgot this existed. Looks alright. Hayley Atwell looks odd with blonde blonde eyebrows. I'll watch it for Cate. I do wonder how this would have looked if Emma Watson had agreed to star.

 

[Incarnadine]

New poster and a pic of Helena Bonham Carter...

 

[Dark Raven]

Hayley Atwell is in this? As a blonde, she looks like she could be her own niece.

I think they could've gotten a more beautiful Cinderella though. I see on Wikipedia that Margot Robie was one of the potential candidates but it didn't work out. I don't know if we've ever had a Cinderella who is stunningly beautiful. Not that Lily James is bad or anything as she is pretty. And I suppose there is some resemblance between her and Hayley Atwell.

So will the Prince recognise her when she goes to the ball, since he's already seen her in the woods before? And he must be a complete idiot later on if he's getting all these different women to try on the glass slipper, especially since he's already met her prior to dancing with her.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Lily James isn't stunningly beautiful now. Really?
