00:00The name's daddy. Cinderella's daddy.
00:04Alright, he may not say that or be 007 anymore, but the former James Bond, Pierce Brosnan, is getting the
00:11royal treatment for Sony's Cinderella musical.
00:14The actor has joined the growing cast of the retelling of the classic fairy tale from writer-director Kay Cannon
00:20as the musical comedy's resident king.
00:23Camila Cabello will not only star in the project, but also will be heavily involved in the music for the
00:28film.
00:28Billy Porter will play the fairy godmother, and Idina Menzel, the evil stepmother, as well as UK actor Nicholas Galatine
00:36as Prince Robert.
00:38The Columbia Project reimagines the traditional Cinderella story in which our heroine is an ambitious young woman whose dreams are
00:45bigger than the world will allow.
00:47James Corden, who is credited with the original idea for the project, is producing the feature with Leo Perlman, his
00:54partner at Falwell 73.
00:55Brosnan is no stranger to the musical genre, having starred in Universal's Mamma Mia! films.
01:01Up next, he will be seen in Will Ferrell's Netflix comedy Eurovision, and the A24 horror pick False Positive from
01:09Ilana Glazer.
