The new Cinderella movie sees Cabello as the titular character. The movie revolves around her dream of being a dressmaker. It has many elements similar to the classic fairytale, such as the evil stepmom and stepsisters.
However, the movie also adds a unique spin to the well-known story. Cabello spoke about her experience playing the role during a virtual appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
I was in this kind of new badass version of this kind of classic fairytale but it’s told in a totally different way. And Cinderella is just like a badass in this one. You know, she’s not waiting for a prince to save her, she’s saving herself. And I feel like those fairytale values need to be rewritten.
Cabello further added that Cannon wrote the script as it is because she wanted to change those values for young people of today.
