Kenneth Branagh is testing three more young actresses for the titular lead of CINDERELLA. And those three ladies are Bella Heathcoate, Lily James and Margot Robbie. I guess they’re the next step down after Emma Watson, Saoirse Ronan, Alicia Vikander and Gabriella Wilde all turn you down.
In this ‘re-imagined’ version of the tale Cinderella must fight her way out of the enchanted forest in order to prevent the prince from entering a marriage that will destroy the kingdom. Here’s hoping her glass slippers eject diamond-edged ninja stars!
Producing will be Simon Kinberg.
Heathcoate was last in “Killing Them Softly” and is repped by WME. James was last in “Broken”. Robbie will next be in “The Wolf of Wall Street” and is repped by CAA.
