Disney unveiled the latest trailer for Cruella during the 2021 Grammy Awards, and the fashion in the upcoming film looks absolutely fierce! The film, which is set in 1970s London, is an origin tale of the iconic 101 Dalmatians villain, and will follow a young Estella de Vil played by Oscar-winner, Emma Stone as she tries to break into the world of fashion design.

In addition to Stone, the film stars Emma Thompson, Joel Fry, Paul Walter Hauser, Emily Beecham , and Mark Strong. The new one-minute trailer set to a cover of “These Boots Are Made for Walking” gives us some new footage of this punk-rock version of Cruella. Take a look!

Here’s the official synopsis for Cruella:

Academy Award winner Emma Stone (“La La Land”) stars in Disney’s “Cruella,” an all-new live-action feature film about the rebellious early days of one of cinemas most notorious – and notoriously fashionable – villains, the legendary Cruella de Vil. “Cruella,” which is set in 1970s London amidst the punk rock revolution, follows a young grifter named Estella, a clever and creative girl determined to make a name for herself with her designs. She befriends a pair of young thieves who appreciate her appetite for mischief, and together they are able to build a life for themselves on the London streets. One day, Estella’s flair for fashion catches the eye of the Baroness von Hellman, a fashion legend who is devastatingly chic and terrifyingly haute, played by two-time Oscar® winner Emma Thompson (“Howards End,” “Sense & Sensibility”). But their relationship sets in motion a course of events and revelations that will cause Estella to embrace her wicked side and become the raucous, fashionable and revenge-bent Cruella. 

Cruella is scheduled to be released May 28, 2021. No word yet on whether Disney plans to follow in the footsteps of Raya and the Last Dragon and Mulan by giving the film a Premier Access release on Disney+ alongside a theatrical release.
