Cruella de Vil! Cruella de Vil! If she doesn’t scare you, no evil thing will!
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Disney plan to fast-track an in-development live action feature focusing on evil fashionista, Cruella de Vil.
The iconic villain with a hatred for all things furry, first appeared in Dodie Smith’s novel ‘One Hundred and One Dalmatians’ and was immortalised with Disney’s animated adaptation in 1961.
Disney has reportedly hired FIFTY SHADES OF GREY screenwriter, Kelly Marcel to work on the script chronicling Cruella’s activities as a fetish loving cougar.
Cruella De Vil has previously been portrayed by Glenn Close in the live-action 101 DALMATIANSÂ and 102 DALMATIANS, and by Victoria Smurfit in contemporary fairy tale series ONCE UPON A TIME.
The Cruella de Vil feature will most likely follow in the vein of MALEFICENT, and loosely follow the events of 101 DALMATIANS FROM her unique perspective. You’ll love the wannabe puppy murderess in no time.
The Cruella movie joins a long line of to be released live-action adaptations of Disney’s animated classics, including: JUNGLE BOOK, ALICE THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS, BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, DUMBO, THE SWORD AND THE STONE, and PETE’S DRAGON.
Look out for Cruella de Vil, and her mink coat on QVC!
