When ‘Cinderella’ arrives on Amazon’s Prime Video in the Fall, it’ll see Billy Porter star alongside Camila Cabello as a reimagined incarnation of the Fairy Godmother.
Ahead of the film’s arrival, EW has given the first look at the star’s sparkling role in the flick and additional details.
Full story below…
Per the publication, the movie’s writer-director Kay Cannon set out to modernize the iconic tale.
Part of that process includes lead Cabello’s Cinderella being “vocal and active, [someone who] craves independence and has dreams and wants to follow them.”
It also saw Emmy winning ‘Pose’ actor Porter given free reign in his role as Fab G.
According to Cannon, the star was given the autonomy “to make it Billy Porter.”
Fitting because she says she wrote the role specifically for the 51-year-old – whose casting she asserts was the “easiest thing” in the film’s creation.
Operating from the standpoint that “magic has no gender,” Porter’s Fab G is a supernatural being who stands for being true to oneself, and who transcends the regimented labels humans so often apply to themselves.
‘Cinderella’ arrives on Amazon’s Prime Video in September.

We all knew this is a F u c k e d up Cinderella movie💅🏿💅🏿💅🏿 Even lil nas x is in the movie WTF?????
Yep. This killed it for me. I love Camila but it’s a no-watch for me with all this “non-gender” bs.
I’m not having my daughter watching a fairy as a fairy.
oh my gosch what is going on in this world 😭
Period.
A lead role in a Hollywood movie, normani can never. Even tyler perry will never cast that boring bìtch in one of his movies
😂😂
Camila = a blessed bìtch. Booked and busy. Paid. Queen of cashing checks. 😌💅
Normani on the other hand cant release a second single or album. We are half way thru the year and still no album or second single. RCA records has shelved the flop bìtch.
Its what she deserves.
Go against Camila, its gonna cost u, BIG TIME
😌💅
Gurl that movie was NOT made it Hollywood 😂😂😂 stop telling these folks that lie. Talm bout a 6 figured check!!! I screamed 😩😩😩 btch you know damn well you don’t get any residuals from streaming a YouTube video 😭🤣🤣🤣 the BIG BUCKS are made when it’s a box office hit. Btch this is HARD MISS. Camila not even gonna promote this lmfaooo. She’s so desperate to be down w the black community, that she got Bill Porter on board as the fairy godmother?!! 🥲💀💀💀 her career is DONE. I cannot wait to watch this now 😹😹😿😿
Chloe Bailey will perform on ‘Good Morning America’ for their Summer Concert Series on Monday, June 21st.
F******* stans, worry about this.
Lmaooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!
I can’t stop laughing. It’s giving flop teas already.
It’s going Straight to DVD , so that makes sense. 😂😂😂😂
Hopefully Billy Porter smacked Camicky in the face for her racism. She’s going to be reminded for the rest of her life.
I thought her fans said that she was getting a BlockBuster Hollywood Treatment? Straight to DVD. I cannot stop laughing literally.
Remember they said she would make history for her tour and I said it will be cancelled. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
What happened? Cancelled.
I REMEMBER 😂😂
THEY SAID HER SECOND ALBUM WOULD BREAK RECORDS N GO NUMBER ONE BUT IT DID NO SUCH THANG 😂
HER TOUR FLOPPED PRE C*****
Key words “second album ”
Normani will never have a second album.
Normani cant even release a second single or album.
This is who u stan.
Atleast Camila has headlined a solo tour.
Normani is an opening act and she will die an opening act.
Normani has been out longer than megan thee stallion, but normani opened for megan thee stallion at that NBA all star show
😂😂😂😭😭
Embarrassing
Remember Camicky was marching in the BLM protest?
Go against Normani, it’s Gone Cost Ya. What has happened since it was shown she went against Normani
Cancelled tour
Flopped singles
No invitation to award shows
Straight to DVD movie
Failed apology
Flop album
Racism Classes. What a dumb b I t c h. Who goes to racism classes? Desperate. A 2 yr old knows more.
I literally cannot stop laughing. I predicted all this would happen. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Go against Mani, it’s gone cost ya.
You’re jealous of Camila is SCREAMING out of you! 🤣
*your jealousy
Shayla you dumb illiterate btch 😂😂😂

“I did it with camila cabello, who is stunning in the film.” — billy porter talking about the Cinderella film
😌💅

So what happened? 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣😭😭
It’s the quote fa me!!!
Normani has been in the industry longer than megan thee stallion but normani still opened for megan thee stallion at that NBA all star show
😂😂
Its regression for me.
That’s what happens when ur an ugly bitter talentless bìtch.
Now look at normani today, modelling cheap looking bags on Instagram, looking like a cheap reality show who has a show on Zeus network
😂
“Amazon Prime Video” has reached 200 MILLION subscribers
😍😍
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
What on earth does that have to do with straight to dvd release
😂😂😂😂
Amazon Prime can have 1 Billion subscribers, doesn’t mean they’re going to watch this trash.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
No one wants to pay pull price movie ticket at $20 to see Camicky in this.
Amazon subscribers are paying $15 per month for unlimited content. And they still may not think it’s even worth it to watch at less than a penny
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Do the lips of yo mouth flap non-stop because the lips of yo p**** never get to? Dried up, jealous bish 💯💋
Right!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂

Oh hunnie, a p**** is made to stretch and tighten back up. How do you we think we push BABIES out? A pathetic worm like you knows nothing of the female anatomy. Too busy hating on yo momma and listening to Eminem in that stank bedroom full of nasty socks.
Chile…this is bout to be a DISASTER❗It’s Already a tired concept to rehash this movie, AGAIN! But this “fab G” idea is not it. I’m all for inclusion honey, but y’all are terribly over doing it.

“They don’t know when it’s coming out,” no, they don’t, you t***** “it”

Billy Porter scenes will literally be a drag queen performance. Chile someone has to remind this queen that he’s shooting an actual film.
