Disney Drops First Trailer for 'Cruella'

Disney dropped Wednesday on YouTube the first trailer for the live-action origin story of "Cruella", which is set to be released on May 28.

The movie is set in the 1970s and highlights how the eponymous villain Cruella de Vil (Emma Stone) became someone who thought it was a good idea to try and murder dozens of puppies to make a new outfit.

It also stars Emma Thompson, Joel Fry, Paul Walter Hauser, Mark Strong, and others.

The crime comedy is directed by Craig Gillespie and from a screenplay written by Aline Brosh McKenna, Jez Butterworth, Kelly Marcel, Tony McNamara, Dana Fox, and Steve Zissis.

The production was announced in 2011 with Andrew Gunn hired to produce the film and Glenn Close, who played the titular character in the 1996 live-action remake and sequel, serves as an executive producer.

In January 2016, Stone was cast in the titular role.
