The fabulous first trailer for Amazon’s new Cinderella story has arrived, and be forewarned: it’s not your typical fairy tale.
This new take on the classic story reinvents Cinderella as Ella (played by pop star Camilla Cabello), an aspiring fashion designer living with her oppressive stepmother (national treasure Idina Menzel). When the local prince (Nicholas Galitzine) hosts a ball to reunite with his future princess, Ella receives a visit from her fairy godmother (Billy Porter) to have a magical moment at the ball. Unlike other accounts, however, rather than reconnecting with her prince, Ella must decide whether she will succumb to a life of wealth or whether she will pursue a life of independence.

Pierce Brosnan, Minnie Driver and James Corden are also on the bill. Pitch Perfect screenwriter Kay Cannon also writes and directs.
As well as adding more contemporary themes to the story, Cinderella will use both original and pop music in her score.
Cinderella goes up to Amazon Prime on September 3.
