Disney representatives have expressed content with Cruella’s performance, both with the critics, moviegoers, and Disney+ subscribers, and they’re looking forward to another chapter of this story.

“We are very pleased with Cruella’s box office success, in conjunction with its strong Disney+ Premier Access performance to date… We look forward to a long run as audiences continue to enjoy this fantastic film,” said a Disney spokesperson.

Director Craig Gillespie and writer Tony McNamara are expected to come back for the sequel, but nothing is official just yet because the sequel is still in the early stages of development.

Cruella draws inspiration from Dodie Smith’s novel The Hundred and One Dalmatians and tells the origin story of the titular villain. In addition to Emma Stone, the film also stars Emma Thompson, Joel Fry, Paul Walter Hauser, Emily Beecham, Kirby Howell-Baptiste, and Mark Strong. It was released simultaneously on Disney+ and in US theaters on May 28th.

British actress Kirby Howell-Baptiste star of Hulu’s Veronica Mars revival, CBS All Access’ Why Women Kill, BBC America’s Killing Eve, and HBO’s Barry has joined the cast of Disney’s Cruella. 

Howell-Baptiste will star alongside Emma Stone who plays the titular villain. Also starring in the film are Paul Walter Hauser and Joel Fry. 

The live-action origin movie is directed by I, Tonya director Craig Gillespie from a script penned by Tony McNamara.

The studio remains tight-lipped on details, so no word on Howell-Baptiste’s character or the film’s plot. It is known, however, that the origin story for the 101 Dalmatians infamous puppy nemesis is set in 1970s London and has a “punk rock” vibe.
