According to reports, back in August 2019, during D23 Expo in Anaheim, California, the studio had shared an exclusive first look of Stone portraying the character. The actress while talking to Entertainment Weekly had said that her Cruella will be a "punk rock" live-action origin story for the classic villain.

In the first look, while Emma can be seen in a similar look with bold red lips, she could also be seen with co-stars Joel Fry and Paul Walter Hauser in the background. The picture shows Emma walking three Dalmatians while wearing a leather jacket. The film also stars Emma Thompson in a supporting role.
This is not the first-time Cruella's story has been seen on the big screen. Back in 2000, live-action film 102 Dalmatians showed Glenn Close playing the character. She will be severing as an executive producer on this new adaptation.
The latest version, written by Kelly Marcel and directed by Craig Gillespie, will recreate Cruella's story, who started out as a designer but turned into a woman obsessed with wearing a coat made of puppy skin.
