After the tremendous success of Cruella (2021), it was only a matter of time before Disney announced a sequel to this bold, stylish, and delightfully rebellious story. That’s right, Cruella 2 is officially in development, and if you—like us—fell in love with the visuals, soundtrack, and Emma Stone’s impeccable performance, you can start celebrating!
In this article, we’ll tell you everything we know so far about the movie: Cruella 2 release date, cast, possible storylines, where to watch, and more.
The big question: What is the release date of Cruella 2?
Although Disney hasn’t officially confirmed the release date, we know that the sequel is in progress. Emma Stone has even revealed in interviews that the script is being developed and that the movie could come out “sooner rather than later.”
This means the release could happen as early as 2025 or 2026, if all goes well. But for now, there’s no official schedule. The only certainty? Fans are counting the days!
Emma Stone and the return of an iconic villain
Yes, Emma Stone is officially returning as the lead! After bringing a more complex and layered Cruella to life, the actress signed on to reprise her role in the sequel.
Emma has even expressed excitement in recent interviews, saying she’s thrilled about the direction the script is taking and that the character still has many layers to explore.

Cast of Cruella 2: Who else is expected to return?
In addition to Emma Stone as Cruella, the return of other standout characters from the first film is anticipated, such as:
- Joel Fry as Jasper;
- Paul Walter Hauser as Horace;
- Kirby Howell-Baptiste as Anita Darling;
- Mark Strong as John, the loyal butler;
- And possibly Emma Thompson as the Baroness Von Hellman.
While the full cast hasn’t been officially confirmed, all signs point to the core cast returning—with potential new villains and allies joining the story.
What will Cruella 2 be about?
We don’t know the exact plot yet, but we can speculate. At the end of the first film, we saw Cruella taking over Hellman Hall and beginning her rise in the fashion world, driven by power and style.
The sequel could delve into how she evolves into the ultimate villain we know from 101 Dalmatians. There’s also room to explore her rivalry with Anita, her legendary schemes, and possibly the origin of her obsession with Dalmatians.
In other words: expect more fashion shows, bold makeup, elaborate plans, and a killer soundtrack that rivals any playlist.
Where to watch Cruella 2 when it’s released?
The first film premiered simultaneously in theaters and on Disney+ with Premier Access. Therefore, it’s very likely that Cruella 2 will follow a similar path: a theatrical release followed by availability on Disney’s streaming platform.
Once Disney officially announces the details, we’ll update this article with direct links to watch it.
Cruella 2 trailer: Is there a teaser yet?
Not yet! So far, there is no official trailer for Cruella 2, but that’s totally understandable—the movie is still in development.
But don’t worry: as soon as Disney releases a teaser or trailer, you’ll find it here on TVStreamzilla with a full breakdown.
The success of the first movie
It’s worth remembering that Cruella (2021) was a critical and box office success. The film grossed over $230 million worldwide and was praised for its costume design (it won the Oscar for Best Costume Design), soundtrack, and of course, Emma Stone’s standout performance.
The mix of punk rock, 1970s London, and fashion rebellion captivated a new generation of fans. That’s precisely why the sequel is so highly anticipated.
