The early buzz on Amazon Primes film adaptation of Cinderella has focused on Billy Porter playing a genderless version of the fairy godmother, and based on some newly released footage, the Pose star does not disappoint.
The streaming network this week gave fans a first look at the long-gestating film by unveiling a new teaser, making it clear that this isnt your standard Cinderella.
For one, Cinderella (played by Camila Cabello ) is an ambitious, forward-thinking woman who dreams about running a dress shop, held back by both a wicked stepmother (Idina Menzel) and the social mores of her time. Enter Porter as the Fab G, who offers Cinderella an escape from her dreary reality.
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly published Wednesday, writer and director Kay Cannon confirmed that Cinderella is a jukebox musical that incorporates songs from varying decades and genres.
And while the classic fairy tale has been adapted for the screen numerous times most famously by Walt Disney Cannon said her version will be more relatable to what girls and young women in particular are going through, where they can really see themselves.
Catch the Cinderella teaser below.
