Academy Award® winner Emma Stone (“La La Land”) stars in Disney’s “Cruella,” an all-new live-action feature film about the rebellious early days of one of cinemas most notorious – and notoriously fashionable – villains, the legendary Cruella de Vil. “Cruella,” which is set in 1970s London amidst the punk rock revolution, follows a young grifter named Estella, a clever and creative girl determined to make a name for herself with her designs. She befriends a pair of young thieves who appreciate her appetite for mischief, and together they are able to build a life for themselves on the London streets. One day, Estella’s flair for fashion catches the eye of the Baroness von Hellman, a fashion legend who is devastatingly chic and terrifyingly haute, played by two-time Oscar® winner Emma Thompson (“Howards End,” “Sense & Sensibility”). But their relationship sets in motion a course of events and revelations that will cause Estella to embrace her wicked side and become the raucous, fashionable and revenge-bent Cruella.
Disney’s “Cruella” is directed by Craig Gillespie (“I Tonya”) from a screenplay by Dana Fox and Tony McNamara, story by Aline Brosh McKenna and Kelly Marcel & Steve Zissis. It was produced by Andrew Gunn (“Freaky Friday”), Marc Platt (“Mary Poppins Returns”) and Kristin Burr (“Christopher Robin”), with Emma Stone, Michelle Wright, Jared LeBoff and Glenn Close serving as executive producers. Two-time Oscar®- winning costume designer Jenny Beavan (“Mad Max: Fury Road,” “A Room with a View”) creates the dazzling and imaginative costumes, which take on a life of their own.

Marvel Studios’ “Loki” features the God of Mischief as he steps out of his brother’s shadow in a new series that takes place after the events of “Avengers: Endgame.”

Before we had a chance to run a Fantasy Cast for this, Marvel has gone right ahead and cast Loki without any suggestions from our avid readers. Tom Hiddleston has been put into the role of Thor’s mortal enemy. This move reunites Hiddleston with director Kenneth Branagh, who directed the young actor in a stage production of “Ivanov.” The two also appeared together in the BBC mini-series “Wallander.”
In the comics, Loki and Thor are raised by Odin as brothers before becoming sworn enemies. Loki makes several attempts at defeating Thor and taking control of Asgard.
Not long ago, we informed you of some news/rumor that Kenneth Branaugh is courting Alexander Skarsgà ¥rd (‘True Blood’) to play the mighty Thor in the coming movie based on the Marvel comic books. Now, it seems he has a favorite in mind to play Thor’s villain.
So far as we know, the villain will be Loki (aka God of Mischief) who happens to be Thor’s brother. Loki is at constant odds with Thor and makes numerous attempts to dispose of his brother to claim the throne of Asgard for himself.
According to sources of IESB.net, Josh Hartnett is on a “very short list” of potential candidates to play Loki, and is apparently excited about the opportunity to play a villain for the first time. No official selections have been made.
