Emma Stone might be the new Cruella De Vil
As part of its ongoing and apparently unstoppable effort to transform its roster of famous cartoon characters into their more-marketable flesh-and-blood equivalents, Disney recently announced that it was planning a live-action movie about 101 Dalmatians villain Cruella De Vil. (The task of converting Maleficent into a sympathetic anti-hero having apparently just been a warm-up for investing audience interest in a woman whose primary hobby is the premeditated murder of puppies.) Now, The Hollywood Reporter’s Heat Vision blog is reporting that Emma Stone might be the actress tapped to step into Cruella’s fashionable dog-skin coat and Halloween fright wig, with the Amazing Spider-Man actress in early talk to take on the role.
