TRAILER: Cate Blanchett Gives Joan Crawford Realness in Live-Action ‘Cinderella’ (2015)

Published by

Swooping down today with nothing less than a trailer, a poster and a glorious set of production stills and shots from Annie Leibovitz featuring Oscar-winner Sandy Powell’s costumes is Disney’s live-action remake of Cinderella, starring Cate Blanchett as Lady Tremaine (intensely channeling Joan Crawford), Helena Bonham Carter as the Fairy Godmother and Downton Abbey‘s Lily James as the titular character. No doubt hoping that the Christmas release of Into the Woods is big for Disney, Cinderella aims to piggyback on that hopeful success as it will debut near the end of the former’s theatrical run. The film is directed by Kenneth Branagh (Thor, Hamlet, Much Ado About Nothing) and will arrive in theaters on March 13, 2015.

Erik Anderson is the founder/owner and Editor-in-Chief of AwardsWatch and has always loved all things Oscar, having watched the Academy Awards since he was in single digits; making lists, rankings and predictions throughout the show. This led him down the path to obsessing about awards. Much later, he found himself in film school and the film forums of GoldDerby, and then migrated over to the former Oscarwatch (now AwardsDaily), before breaking off to create AwardsWatch in 2013. He is a Rotten Tomatoes-approved critic, accredited by the Cannes Film Festival, Telluride Film Festival, Toronto International Film Festival and more, is a member of the International Cinephile Society (ICS), The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics (GALECA), Hollywood Critics Association (HCA) and the International Press Academy. Among his many achieved goals with AwardsWatch, he has given a platform to underrepresented writers and critics and supplied them with access to film festivals and the industry and calls the Bay Area his home where he lives with his husband and son.
