Disneys live-action Cinderella spinoff feature has found the perfect fits to lead the project.
Akiva Schaffer is set to helm Stepsisters, offering a comedic take on the propertys villainous characters who torment Cinderella. Writers Dan Gregor and Doug Mand, who worked with Schaffer on Paramounts movie reboot The Naked Gun and Disneys Emmy-winning feature Chip n Dale: Rescue Rangers, will pen the screenplay that is based on an original script from Michael Montemayor.
Ali Bell produces the film for Party Over Here.
Disneys first feature version of Cinderella was the 1950 animated film adapting the classic fairy tale. The story centers on the titular character, who is a servant to her malicious stepmother and stepsisters until getting the chance to attend a glamorous ball and meet the prince.
Lily James, Cate Blanchett and Richard Madden starred in Disneys 2015 live-action version of the tale. Sophie McShera and Holliday Grainger played the shallow stepsisters in that movie.
More to come.
