Emma Stone & Emma Thompson Talk About Their New Disney Film, 'Cruella' | PEOPLE

[mcsuperstar]

I seriously want a part 2 of Cruella... They both done it so bloody well. It's wickedly wonderful. Both actresses are brilliant.

[leonardomauhs]

Two of the most likeable, relatable, fun and incredibly talented actors of our time. The duo we never knew we needed. So happy to see them both together, can't wait to see the movie

[FashionMystiqueMason]

This, to me, was one of Emma’s best roles. She took this part and became another person. She is known usually for her comedic acting and she now is highly respected as a suspenseful drama. Absolutely perfect!

[Moonitot]

Emma stone nailed that role I can't imagine someone else play it

[Louclark]

Watched it last night and it gave me a lot of The Devil Wears Prada vibe. Emma S and Emma T did a fantastic job.

[MerryGoGirl]

I'm glad Emma T mentioned about how visually stunning the film is because honestly the story could have been terrible and the film would have been totally saved on the visuals alone. Thankfully everything in the film was fantastically on point.

I took my Mom to see it and we could not have had a better time!! I’m so happy we could do that in the pandemic, and so full of love for both Emmas for having delivered such an iconic enjoyable story. I truly loved Emma Thompson’s baroness so incredibly much. She beat Meryl hands down and I’ve always been an absolute Meryl fan.

[amy_yoshikawa]

This Movie was seriously dark which is extremely rare coming from Disney movies and I loved❤️ it.

[batoulalbar]

This movie is a timeless masterpiece. MASTERPIECE from A to Z.

[caton_andrew]

Awww, Emma T calls Emily by her real name. That’s so cute 🥺

[leonardomauhs]

I'm hypnotized by Emma S's hair. So gorgeous.

[julianamolinasilva]

Ahhh i love them both, they have such an amazing chemistry and they are incredible actresses

[Imfae]

"I'm doing all of this in heels"- the moment I fell in love! 😆

[audiotinker]

I’m legitimately mad they didn’t show more of her on the car because that scene was amazing and she looked incredible!!!! That entire look was my favorite.

[scarlvoe]

I love how they both can do their accents seem so accurate. Emma Stone did an amazing job; especially how she had to do a certain accent for Estella and more of a suttle and evil type of accent for Cruella. They did amazing!

[Melanie-wwyk]

You know when someone plays a role so well, it's almost too well and you start to feel uneasy about the whole thing? That's how well Emma Stone played it. Just brilliant. She and Emma Thompson.

[lucketmi]

i FORGOT Emma isnt Brittish while watching the movie, such a good role !

[Applauseify]

my love for emma thompson and some connect grows everytime I hear her. Love her

[modyblues]

i really love the fact they both admired and respected each other, and wanted to work together. two talented actresses.

[dardar.]

I LOVED IT SO MUCH!! BOTH EMMAS ARE BRILLIANT! I will see it multiple times for sure!
