Emma Stone Is Cruella de Vil?
Updated : April 06, 2016 11:02 AM IST Known for her role as Gwen Stacy in The Amazing Spider-Man films, Emma Stone, is in talks to play the role of Cruella de Vil in a live-action Cruella movie, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Cruella is the classic villainess from 101 Dalmations. In the 1996 film, the character of Cruella de Vil was played by Glenn Close.
The project does not have anyone in the director’s seat but it is expected that the movie will go on floors this year. The script for the film will supposedly be written by Kelly Marcel. Stepping away from the Dalmations theme, this movie will be the origin story of Cruella.
The untitled movie will be produced by Andrew Gunn. Kristin Burr and Jessica Virtue will be overseeing the project for The Walt Disney Studios. The character was brought to life in the 1956 book by Dodie Smith titled The Hundred and One Dalmatians. She was first brought on screen as an animated character in the 1961 classic.
