Variety has revealed that Disney are hoping to slip the glass slipper onto Emma Watson for their remake of Cinderella. Cate Blanchett has been attached to play the wicked stepmother for a while now, although the film recently gained a new director in the form of THOR's Kenneth Branagh after creative differences led to Mark Romanek departing the project. She has yet to read the script and scheduling issue may prove to be a problem, but the British actress who found fame in the Harry Potter franchise is their favourite. The studio have also considered Gabriella Wilde (The Three Musketeers), Imogen Poots (Need for Speed) and Alicia Vikander (Anna Karenina).

Not bad but i say Kristin Stewart. She was a great Snow White and she would be perfect for Cindy.

Anybody else think that it's pretty obvious that Emma Watson's gonna have the best career out of the Potter trio?

I'm willing to consider watching anything with Emma Watson.

MisterNiceGuy, What if I'm not? Kristin Stewart is actually a really good actress. I thought she was superb in Adventureland. Watson is great, too don't get me wrong.

Emma Watson is a great, beautiful actress. I'm sure she'd do well as Cindy.

No we need Meagan Fox as MJ and Emma Watson for A proper Supergirl

Gemma Arteton as Gretel
Amanda Seyfried as Red Riding Hood
Kristen Stewart as Snow White
Emma Watson as CInderella


So the next logical move are
Mary Elizabeth WInstead as Ariel the little Mermaid
Megan Fox as Jasmine from Aladdin
Eva Green as Esmeralda from Hunchback of Notre Dame

what a childhood i had... :)

Nice choice! But what happened to Del Toro's Beauty & The Beast? Read last year she was specifically chosen for that? Is this project dead? Or is that following Pacific Rim?

She has a noble air about herself. But I don't see her as Cinderella. She's too grounded in reality.

@ Soul Eater: Y'know, come to think of it, she DOES look like a Belle. Huh. Oh well, she's a good actress either way, so full steam ahead, O thriving childhood-exploiting industry...

I hope this movie won't be like watching the Tri-wizard Ball all over again. That would make me sick to my stomach.
