You bibbidi bobbidi better believe it! Billy Porter has officially been cast as the Fairy Godmother in James Corden's live-action Cinderella remake, and I'm already imagining the outfit possibilities. The Pose star will make an appearance on the big screen [1], alongside Camila Cabello as the enchanting princess herself [2].
The Cinderella reboot will be directed by Pitch Perfect's Kay Cannon. Porter will also star alongside Frozen [3]'s Idina Menzel, who will play Evelyn, Cinderella's evil stepmother and his character's polar opposite.
In addition to taking home the Emmy for outstanding lead actor in a drama series for his role as Pray Tell on Netflix's Pose in September, Porter is also working on a new album — set to be released in 2020 — and will star in the upcoming comedy film Like a Boss with Tiffany Haddish [4], Rose Byrne, and Salma Hayek [5].
