    Stone’s title character Cruella de Vil is set to unleash her madness as she appears ready to challenge Emma Thompson’s Baroness Von Hellman, the head of a prestigious fashion house.

    Feb 18, 2021
    AceShowbiz – Emma Stone morphs into Cruella de Vil in the first official trailer for Disney’s “Cruella”. Set to tell the origin story of “One Hundred and One Dalmatians” villain from the point of view of the title character, the trailer sees a young fashion designer, Estella de Vil, who transforms into the baddie.
    “From the very beginning, I realized I saw the world very differently than everyone else,” Stone’s character narrates the video. “That didn’t sit well with some people, but I wasn’t for everyone. I guess they were always scared that I would be … a psycho,” she says, followed by the sound of her maniacal laugh.
    Estella is then seen turning heads at a party, where she comes face-to-face with Emma Thompson’s Baroness Von Hellman, the head of a prestigious fashion house who hires Estella. Seemingly ready to challenge the woman with power in the room, she continues saying in voiceover, “But a new day brings new opportunities. And I was ready to make a statement. How does the saying go? I am woman, hear me roar.”

    The trailer gives off strong Harley Quinn vibes as Estella a.k.a. Cruella is set to unleash her “mad” side. “I was born brilliant, born bad, and a little bit mad,” she declares, while the scenes show her driving off in a possibly stolen car and other crimes likely pulled off by her.
    Described as “an all-new live-action feature film about the rebellious early days of one of cinemas most notorious – and notoriously fashionable – villains, the legendary Cruella de Vil,” “Cruella” is set “in 1970s London amidst the punk rock revolution, follows a young grifter named Estella, a clever and creative girl determined to make a name for herself with her designs. She befriends a pair of young thieves who appreciate her appetite for mischief, and together they are able to build a life for themselves on the London streets.”
    The official synopsis continues, “One day, Estella’s flair for fashion catches the eye of the Baroness von Hellman, a fashion legend who is devastatingly chic and terrifyingly haute, played by two-time Oscar winner Emma Thompson (‘Howards End’, ‘Sense & Sensibility’). But their relationship sets in motion a course of events and revelations that will cause Estella to embrace her wicked side and become the raucous, fashionable and revenge-bent Cruella.”
    The movie is directed by Craig Gillespie (“I Tonya”) from a screenplay by Dana Fox and Tony McNamara, and story by Aline Brosh McKenna, Kelly Marcel as well as Steve Zissis. It is set for a theatrical release in the U.S. on May 28.

      Emma Stone and Rachel Weisz Gave Up Oscar Nomination for 'The Favourite' Co-Star Olivia Colman

      by

      Fox Searchlight Pictures

      According to Olivia Colman, her co-stars in the 2018 royal movie declined being nominated for Best Actress at the 2019 Academy Awards because they felt she deserved the nod.

      Feb 10, 2021
      AceShowbiz – Olivia Colman’s “The Favourite” co-stars Emma Stone and Rachel Weisz secretly declined being nominated for a Best Actress Oscar because they felt she deserved the trophy.
      The three actresses starred together in the 2018 drama, and although they were all leading ladies, only Olivia received an Oscar nomination for Best Actress – which she won for her role as Queen Anne – whilst both Emma and Rachel, who played Abigail Masham and Lady Sarah Churchill respectively, were put up for Best Supporting Actress.
      And now, Olivia has revealed her co-stars – who both lost out in the Best Supporting Actress category – actively chose not to put themselves forward for a Best Actress nomination because they believed Olivia deserved the gong the most.
      She told Total Film magazine, “What I didn’t realise for the Oscars was that you are meant to say what category you want to go up for. I went: ‘No, that’s rude. I’m not doing that.’ ”
      “And also because I felt that we were all three equal people – Emma, me and Rachel were three equals. I said: ‘If they can’t change it so that we can all be equals, then I don’t want to do it, because it’s not right.’ ”

      “So I refused to say it. I said: ‘We can either all go up for lead, or all go up for supporting.’ ”
      Explaining the kind deed her co-stars had done in secret, she then explained, “But then what I didn’t realise … someone let slip that Emma and Rachel had both decided – which makes me feel quite emotional – that they would go supporting to make me go lead, because they said they’d both had it, so it was my turn.”
      “Isn’t that amazing? That’s two incredible friends. I said I was not doing it unless we could all be equal. So they ignored me, and did something selfless and charitable.”
      Rachel had previously taken home an Oscar in 2006 for Best Supporting Actress in “The Constant Gardener” while Emma won Best Actress for “La La Land” in 2017.
      And this year could see another big win for 47-year-old Olivia, who is up for two Golden Globes and two SAG Awards for her work in Netflix hit “The Crown” – in which she plays Queen Elizabeth II – and “The Father”.
      The Academy are set to announce the nominees for the 2021 Oscars ceremony on March 15.
