Disney’s Cinderella, the Second Trailer

Cinderella

I just watched the second trailer for Cinderella, the Live-Action version of the story coming from Disney on March 13, 2015. You can really see Disney working hard to develop the character of Cinderella and her kindness and strength. There are more moments with Cinderella’s Evil Stepmother, played by Cate Blanchett. More moments with Cinderella and the Prince. There seems to be a larger conspiracy happening to keep Cinderella and the Prince apart. At least that is whay I’m seeing from the trailer. See for yourself.

There is more about the movie, which hits theaters on March 13, 2015, below.

The story of “Cinderella” follows the fortunes of young Ella (Lily James) whose merchant father remarries following the death of her mother. Eager to support her loving father, Ella welcomes her new stepmother (Cate Blanchett) and her daughters Anastasia (Holliday Grainger) and Drisella (Sophie McShera) into the family home. But, when Ella’s father unexpectedly passes away, she finds herself at the mercy of a jealous and cruel new family. Finally relegated to nothing more than a servant girl covered in ashes, and spitefully renamed Cinderella, Ella could easily begin to lose hope. Yet, despite the cruelty inflicted upon her, Ella is determined to honor her mother’s dying words and to “have courage and be kind.” She will not give in to despair nor despise those who mistreat her. And then there is the dashing stranger she meets in the woods. Unaware that he is really a prince, not merely an apprentice at the Palace, Ella finally feels she has met a kindred soul. It appears her fortunes may be about to change when the Palace sends out an open invitation for all maidens to attend a ball, raising Ella’s hopes of once again encountering the charming Kit (Richard Madden). Alas, her stepmother forbids her to attend and callously rips apart her dress. But, as in all good fairy tales, help is at hand, and a kindly beggar woman (Helena Bonham Carter) steps forward and, armed with a pumpkin and a few mice, changes Cinderella’s life forever.
