Here is the synopsis for Disney’s Cruella:
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,” 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. 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 and 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.
