Camila Cabello's non-Disney Cinderella now has a teaser

The trailer’s stinger is a bellwether for the movie’s tone, which is to say, this is less stately and more comedic than the 2015 Kenneth Branaugh adaptation. The end of the trailer has that snappy sitcom energy with Porter asking, “Do you want to go to that ball?” and Cabello quipping, “Yes, I was just crying and singing about it like two minutes ago.” There’s a real Seth Rogen energy to this reading that plays up the “not your daddy’s Cinderella” factor. Blockers director Kay Cannon is behind the helm, so maybe this will have lots of jokes, which would be good because who doesn’t love to laugh?

There are some other touches here, too. Cinderella isn’t just step-sister to three abusive siblings, she’s a budding entrepreneur and aspiring dressmaker who plans to open a shop, “Dresses by Ella.” Still, many of the superficial touches in the trailer evoke a Disney-ness that’s hard to shake. It feels like this was a story screaming for a modern-day interpretation, which probably would’ve helped differentiate itself.

Anyway, that’s what we could surmise in these brief 30 seconds. Who knows, maybe a full trailer will give us a better sense of what to make of it. Cinderella dances onto Amazon on September 2.
