10 Upcoming Movies From This Year's Oscar Winners That You Shouldn't Miss

3. Cinderella - Cate Blanchett

Release Date: March 15, 2015 More than any other Oscar-winner included in this article, then, it looks to be Cate Blanchett who has committed herself to the most upcoming roles - and her third to grace our list is the upcoming live-action remake of Walt Disney's Cinderella, which probably wouldn't be all that interesting to movie fans if it weren't for the fact that it's being helmed by Kenneth Branagh, who recently did an excellent job with Marvel's Thor and Jack Ryan: Shadow Recruit. Blanchett is set to play - and you've guessed the role already, haven't you? - the evil stepmother, Lady Tremaine. She's the ideal choice for such a character, of course, given her naturally icy presence. She'll star alongside Lily Collins, who will be playing Cinderella, and Richard Madden, who has nabbed the coveted role of Prince Charming - hopefully Disney will be able to bring something fresh and unique to this classic tale for 21st century audiences.
