Although I'm not fond of Camila's voice going back to The X Factor (I prefer Normani and Lauren of FH), Billy Porter and Idina Menzel will make this worth seeing.

I don't find him very handsome or cute, but he sounds like he has the acting chops.

He's playing the King.

Am unfamiliar with Spencer, and didn't see enough of Hairspray Live! to really get a sense of Baillio.

Wow Minnie Driver and John Mulaney! With the rest of the big names, this is star-studded! And there will be a town crier? So it may be set "once upon a time"! And there will be talking, wise-cracking mice who become footmen!

Minnie Driver is the only name there that I was excited about. Will she be playing the Stepmother?

No, Idina Menzel is playing the stepmother. Minnie Driver is playing the Queen.

Oh, yes, Idina was reported in November, I see. I think Driver would've made more sense as a stepmother actually. She's played self-centered divas before in Phantom of the Opera and Will & Grace. Has Menzel ever played a villain before?

Billy Porter will play a 'genderless' Fairy Godmother

I didn't want a man to play a woman in a film aiming to be the best Cinderella, just in case this was, but The Fairy Godmother being genderless, while still not traditional and is too wtf for me, is at least is a little better than a man being a woman in the role.

I am MAD This movie stoped filming beacuse that god dame Coronavirus.,
This pandemic has caused so much sh#t in the movie world !

I pry to(the christian) god it OVER SOON

I am in agreement with you!

Thanks Sotiris!

I like Camila's costume to a degree. It's ok. But Idina's is horrible. Camila's ball gown and the fairy godmother's ouftit better be a loooot better.

This looks cheap, but I also didn’t realize it would be a period piece.
