The classic fairy tale is getting an all-new twist! Reports of a reimagined Cinderella surfaced earlier this month and it looks like the stepsister-spiked story is turning into a can’t-miss event.
Even though there’s no word yet on whether the latest version of the iconic tale will follow the traditional Cinderella narrative we’ve come to know and love, the idea for the new take comes straight from the mind of late-night talk show host James Corden. If the rumors are correct, expect to see the same orphaned girl versus evil stepmother dynamic—but in an entirely new way.

Beyond starring as Cinderella herself, Cabello is likely to have a heavy hand in the in the film’s soundtrack. While there are no other celebs tied to the flick yet, Pitch Perfect writer Kay Cannon is set to helm the musical remake.
As of now there is no release date for the new take on Cinderella. But reportedly Sony (the company behind the film) will fast-track production. We’ll keep you posted as we learn more deets!
