"Disney's Cinderella Official US Trailer" Have courage and be kind. Watch the brand new trailer for Disney's Cinderella, starring Cate Blanchett, Lily James, Richard Madden, and Helena Bonham Carter. See the film in theatres March 13, 2015. The story of "Cinderella" follows the fortunes of young Ella (Lily James) whose merchant father remarries following the death of her mother. Eager to support her loving father, Ella welcomes her new stepmother (Cate Blanchett) and her daughters Anastasia (Holliday Grainger) and Drisella (Sophie McShera) into the family home. But, when Ella's father unexpectedly passes away, she finds herself at the mercy of a jealous and cruel new family. Finally relegated to nothing more than a servant girl covered in ashes, and spitefully renamed Cinderella, Ella could easily begin to lose hope. Yet, despite the cruelty inflicted upon her, Ella is determined to honor her mother's dying words and to "have courage and be kind." She will not give in to despair nor despise those who mistreat her. And then there is the dashing stranger she meets in the woods. Unaware that he is really a prince, not merely an apprentice at the Palace, Ella finally feels she has met a kindred soul. It appears her fortunes may be about to change when the Palace sends out an open invitation for all maidens to attend a ball, raising Ella's hopes of once again encountering the charming Kit (Richard Madden). Alas, her stepmother forbids her to attend and callously rips apart her dress. But, as in all good fairy tales, help is at hand, and a kindly beggar woman (Helena Bonham-Carter) steps forward and -- armed with a pumpkin and a few mice -- changes Cinderella's life forever. I want to tell you a secret that will see you through all the trials that life can offer. Have courage and be kind. She'll mearly be your step-mother, and you'll have two lovely sisters to keep you company. So I'll know that as far away as I might be, you'll be safe. Wouldn't you prefer to eat when all the work is done? Ella. Yes, step-mother. Oh, you needn't call me that. Madam will do. Cinder wench. Dirty Elle. Cinderella! Whoa, whoa, whoa. Are you alright? Miss, what do they call you? Nevermind what they call me. I'm sorry. It's not your doing. Nor yours either, I bet. I hope to see you again, Miss. And I, you. Ella, you have more kindness in your little finger than most people possess in their whole body. It was my mother's old dress. It would be an insult to take you to the palace dressed in these old rags. You shall not go to the ball. Excuse me. Why are you crying. Who are you? That's better. My fairy godmother. Now, where are those mice? They're made of glass? And you'll find they're really comfortable. Now off you go. Oh, you shall go to the ball. They're all looking at you. Believe me, they're all looking at you. Where there is kindness, there is goodness, and where there is goodness, there is magic. No! I have to see her again. Are you looking for this?
