Production resumed in August 2020 and concluded in September.Ĭinderella was released in select theaters and digitally on Amazon Prime Video on September 3, 2021. Principal photography began in February 2020 at Pinewood Studios, and was suspended in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The film was produced by James Corden, through Fulwell 73 with Leo Pearlman, Jonathan Kadin, and Shannon McIntosh. ĭevelopment on the film began in April 2019, when Sony Pictures announced a musical-style film of Cinderella, with Cannon writing and directing. It is a jukebox musical, featuring pop and rock hits, in addition to several original songs. Written and directed by Kay Cannon, it stars singer Camila Cabello as the title character in her acting debut, alongside Idina Menzel, Minnie Driver, Nicholas Galitzine, Billy Porter, and Pierce Brosnan. But the generic writing only pulls down all the good work done by the technical team.Cinderella is a 2021 romantic jukebox musical comedy film based on the fairy tale of the same name by Charles Perrault. The film is mounted well and the technical team, especially cinematographer Rammy and music director Ashwamithra, do a fine job to give it a slick look and a classy sound (the song Aalavanjiye is repeat-worthy). His comic lines in this guest appearance are crass and cringe-worthy and only reinforce the notion that it is time our comedians realise that even verbal innuendos are sexual abuse. This flashback segment is the strong point of the film, but we also get a tasteless comedy scene featuring Robo Shankar who tries to make us find lines like Priyanka Chopra. Even the scares are mainly jump scares that we can anticipate much before they happen. Raai Laxmi's earnest performance in these portions somewhat carry the film, but Cinderella is otherwise filled with predictable plotting. A rich, young man (read a prince) falling for her. a maid who is harassed by her employers discovering the angel within her after buying a costly gown. There is a flashback that slightly plays around with the Cinderella story. But given that we have had 789 horror films and horror comedies over the past decade, the film hardly comes across as a fresh attempt. If it had been released some 10 years ago, Cinderella might have come across as mildly engaging. Who is the ghost and why is it on a killing spree? Meanwhile, Ramya (Sakshi Aggarwal), a rich girl is killed and her mother becomes the next target of a ghost. She finds a Cinderella costume in an antique shop and brings it home and has paranormal experiences. She has come to a hill station to record the sounds of a few rare birds for a Hollywood project. A character (here, it is Raai Laxmi as Akira, a sound designer) is arrested as a suspect, but she claims she is innocent. Right from its opening scene, in which a man is murdered by a ghost, Cinderella sticks close to the horror movie formula.
