The second trailer for Disney’s Cinderella starring Lily James and Richard Madden, as Cinderella and the prince respectively, has surfaced.
The first trailer for the Kenneth Brannagh-directed film came out on New Year’s Day, giving us the first glimpse of the Downton Abbey star in the title role, starring opposite Madden (Game of Thrones).
Brannagh is clearly trying to give this age-old tale a new spin and in the second trailer, that becomes more apparent.
In the new peek of the film, Cinderella meets her prince in the woods and she scolds her wicked stepmother (Cate Blanchett). “I will protect the prince from you, no matter what becomes of me,” she tells her.
We get to see some more of Helena Bonham Carter as the Fairy Godmother and a modernized take on Cinderella getting ready for the ball. Thanks to CG effects, her glass slippers shine like they’ve never shone before.
Cinderella hits theaters March 16.
