It’s official Camilizers!
Camila Cabello is set to take on the lead role in Sony Pictures upcoming adaptation of the classic tale, “Cinderella”.
Directed by “Pitch Perfect” director, Kay Cannon, the movie will be a music-oriented version of the classic story. The idea for the movie initially came from James Corden who is famously known for hosting “The Late Late Show with James Corden” and for skits like the “Carpool Karaoke”.
In fact, Corden himself is set to produce the feature film with Leo Pearlman under their production company, Fulwell73 banner.
It was also revealed that Cabello is closely involved in the music-making for this film. Following the announcement of this movie, Sony took to twitter to express their excitement for the film.

The upcoming adaptation will mark Cabello’s first acting role in a feature film. Before landing on this role, Cabello first gained recognition as a member of the girl group, “Fifth Harmony” before deciding to pursue a solo career.
Her single “Havana” and debut album “Camilla” made history right out the gates, landing on both the Billboard 200 and Artist 100 charts in the same week. Her single “Havana” was also the most streamed song by a female artist on Spotify. The tune was crowned the best-selling digital single worldwide by music organisation, IFPI.
