And later on, the live-action remake happened in 1996, where Glenn Close played Cruella up to its sequel 102 Dalmatians in the year 2000.
In her punk-rock theme wardrobe, the La La Land star looks unrecognizable, and it was more complemented by dark lipstick, and her smokey eye makeup further compliments her character's70s-inspired' fit.
Stone's raspy accent is heard in a voiceover in the trailer during its release.

Helen Reddy's feminist song is heard over the trailer quoting the lyric, "I am woman, hear me roar."

Thompson will play the boss of Cruella, and she is the reason for Cruella to act villainous journey in the story.

The Plot of the Movie
Cruella is a story of a teenage girl who is smart, imaginative, and very determined to make a name in fashion. Cruella's movie is set in London during the punk rock movement in the early 1970s. Estrella befriended a couple of young thieves who are on her in making mischief, and they are more than willing to work and create a life with Estrella and for themselves on the streets of London together.
One day, Estella's fashion style catches Baroness von Hellman's attention, played by Emma Thompson, who was very devastatingly elegant and Haute in the movie. To add sequences in the story to the events and to set revelations in motion. Their relationship will only lead Estella to embrace her nasty side and will suddenly become notorious and chaotic yet trendy and vengeance-bent Cruella.
In this movie, we would expect a deepening of the villain's character, who is Cruella, same as the format of Maleficent, whose story was unfolding for the audiences to understand their reasons why they chose wickedness.
