New Trailer, Clip And Featurette For Disney's Cinderella

Disney's latest live-action re-imagining, coming to theatres next month.

After Mark Romanek stepped down from directing The Wolfman and Joe Johnston took over, a lot of the prep work remained intact and many of the designs were used with very little modification. I can't help but wonder how much this is also true of Cinderella, which Romanek had developed until fairly shortly before production. Kenneth Branagh was the man to take over this time, and his resume reveals a strange kind of double personality. There are those projects he seem to have made for love and passion, and those he appears to have taken as a job in between. Not to say, of course, he didn't apply that same love and passion to those work-for-hire gigs, or at least a measure of it, once he had the megaphone in his hand. Cinderella does look, no matter how it wound up on the screen, like a very lavish, impressive production. Here's the new trailer, as released this morning, plus the first full clip and, finally, a little featurette on the film. But don't watch this trailer too, too closely. There seems to be at least one major digression from the story of Cinderella as we know it, and this promo appears to spoil it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n44EWI92Tc8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UYJEaL-7_Jw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vHQnjqmYxTw Cinderella will be released in the US on March 20th and the UK on March 27th. It looks like a smash hit even before you add in the Frozen Fever factor.
