The photo shows Cruella de Vil holding three dalmatians. If you know anything about the Disney villain, she does not get along with the dogs in "101 Dalamatians," nor would she ever hold them on leashes.
The live-action movie is supposed to be an origin story for the villain, directed by Alex Timbers. We're expecting to find out exactly how Cruella and the canines had an eventual falling out.
At the D23 Expo, Stone described the movie as "1970s, set in london, and punk rock" in a message to fans from the movie's set.
Previously, Glenn Close played the character in the 1996 live-action remake of the animated movie.
The film was recently moved back from December 23, 2020 to May, 28, 2021.
