“Cruella,” a live-action film reimagining the classic animated Disney villain, was added to Disney Plus’ streaming library on May 28.

Since its launch, the film’s premium access fee has been a source of confusion for many interested in watching the movie. Questions about the fee, and a few other aspects of the film’s presence on Disney Plus, have become some of the most popular search trends on Google.

This version of Cruella de Vil, played by Emma Stone, has a very punk-rock energy. The film gives Cruella an origin story, showing what she was like before the events of the classic tale The Hundred and One Dalmatians, first published as a novel in 1956 and adapted for the silver screen twice, first as an animated film in 1961 and as a live action movie with Glenn Close and Jeff Daniels in 1996.

Here's everything you need to know.

This live-action movie starring Emma Stone and directed by Craig Gillespie (“I, Tonya”) is, at best, very loosely related to the 1961 animated film (or the 1996 live-action pic with Glenn Close for that matter).

Instead, this is a part punk, part camp origin story set in 1970s London about a girl who has dreams of designing high fashion and gets a shot from Emma Thompson’s slightly sadistic Baroness.

Here is everything you need to know about Cruella on Disney Plus, including how to watch and how much it costs.

Cruella: how and platform to watch

Due to delays caused by the coronavirus pandemic, Cruella's release date moved from Christmas to May 28, 2021. You can see it in both movie theaters or via paid Premier Access on Disney Plus. If you're not prepared to shell out extra cash, the movie will become available to all Disney Plus subscribers for no extra fee on Aug. 27.

Until it's more widely available, accessing the movie in Premier Access will cost an additional $30 on top of your monthly bill for Disney's streaming service.

The story and trailer

A new trailer in February showed Cruella as a young woman trying to make it in the fashion world in London. "I was born brilliant, born bad and a little bit mad," Stone says in voiceover. The trailer shows Dalmatians growling at her, Cruella speeding around in a vintage car, and the villainess setting things on fire.

In August 2019, at Disney's D23 event, a video from Stone and Emma Thompson -- who were filming the movie at the time -- said the film will "take us back" to the villain's younger years.

"It's 1970s, set in London," Stone said in the video. "It's punk rock. A great cast."

Here's the main cast:

  • Emma Stone as Cruella de Vil
  • Emma Thompson as the Baroness
  • Kirby Howell-Baptiste as Anita Darling
  • Kayvan Novak as Roger 
  • Joel Fry as Jasper
  • Paul Walter Hauser as Horace
  • Mark Strong as John the valet
