Cruella is an upcoming American live-action film which will be distributed by Walt Disney Pictures. Glenn Close, Andrew Gunn, Aline Brosh McKenna and Marc Platt will serve as producers of the film.^[1] McKenna was also hired as the writer of the film; in October 2015, she was replaced by Kelly Marcel, who also wrote the screenplay for Saving Mr. Banks.

This is not the first time 101 Dalmatians was adapted in live-action. The 1996 film and its sequel were the first two.
