Fan Trailer Reimagines CRUELLA as a JOKER Prequel About Arthur Fleck's Mom
I’ve got a great fan-made trailer here that reimagines Disney’s Cruella as a prequel film for Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker. Lots of fans have compared the Cruella trailer to Joker, and this trailer imagines a film that is about Arthur Fleck’s mom.
The video was created by comedian Matthew Highton and I’m sure many of you will get a kick out of it. Check it out and tell us what you think!
Cruella is “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. 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.”
The movie was directed by Craig Gillespie (Mr. Woodcock, Lars and the Real Girl, Fright Night, Million Dollar Arm, The Finest Hours, and I Tonya), and the rest of the cast includes Emma Thompson, Mark Strong, Paul Walter Hauser, Emily Beecham, Joel Fry, Kirby Howell-Baptiste, and John McCrea.
Cruella will be released in theaters on May 28th, 2021.
