To add to the list of interesting Disney creations this year would include “Cruella”, played by actress Emma Stone.

Emma Stone Teaches Us How To Be A Fearless Woman

At some point in your life, you’re bound to prioritize what others think of you. Stone is no exception in this area. In an interview with media recently the actress emphasizes enjoyment towards, “playing these women who are much less concerned with what people think about them”.

To cut things short, watching Stone’s character in the movie is just as inspiring as it is ‘sobering’, as she “simultaneously works on that herself in her life”.

 

No Smoking Scenes!

Based on the legendary 1956 children’s novel “Hundred And One Dalmations” written by Dodie Smith, an accessory that you couldn’t have missed would include the Disney character’s cigarette holder. So if you’re wondering why it’s missing, it was in fact completely intended. Disney has made it a point by banning smoking from all of its owned movies since 2015.

 

Sensational Costume Designs

There’s a lot to look out for and appreciate as the costumes in the film are designed by 71 year old Academy Award winning designer Jenny Beavan.

“The sheer luck of doing a movie like this is that the costumes do a lot of the work for you,” Stone explained in a video interview with Walt Disney Studios. “Once you put those things on, you feel like Cruella De Vil.”

According to Beavan, Cruella is the biggest film she’s ever done. Having designed 47 sets for the film, “it was very important to her for Cruella to be black, white, grey and red”. Emma herself has admitted to taking a lot of pictures (and why wouldn’t she?) on the first day the looks were put together, which she called “a narcissistic day”.

If you’re as excited for this as we are, check out the trailer to this gem.

 

 

Cruella will drop on Disney+ on August 27th, mark your calendars!
