Kristen Wiig & Annie Mumulo Are Now Working on a Live Action Cinderella Evil Stepsisters Movie for Disney
(via Deadline)
Even though Wiig and Mumulo would have to work in the confines of both Disney and the Disney canon and that they will likely not play Cinderella’s infamous stepsisters themselves, the prospect of any of Annie Mumulo and Kristen Wiig’s next projects, following the instant classic that is Barb & Star Go To Vista Del Mar, are incredibly enticing.
The fact that they are working to develop a movie focused on those very same evil stepsisters of the legendary Cinderella has our mind racing for all the possibilities. We hold any hope that Disney will allow them to be as weird and offbeat and non sequitur as they want to be. That free-wheeling absurdist sense of humor is at what at the core of the Barb & Star Go to Vista Del Mar. Truly, if Wiig and Mumulo get to make whatever this project ends up being on their terms, it would most certainly to stand alone in Disney’s catalog, but what a grand standalone movie this would be.
