Estella is an ambitious up-and-coming designer stepping into haute couture without the fear of risks. From an early age, she notices that she is different from everyone else and tries to fit into society’s moral standards while embracing the outsider qualities that make her such an inspired designer. However, as the film progresses, we can expect t...
The Baroness is the head of the celebrated London fashion house where Estella works early in her career as a designer, and her character is more in line with what we traditionally expect from Cruella herself, absent of any remorse or goodwill. She is a pivotal part in Estella’s development into Cruella, both a rival and mentor who doles out advice ...
Jasper will be familiar to any fan of One Hundred and One Dalmatians, as one-half of Cruella's henchmen duo.

In 2019, Beecham won the Best Ac...

According to Variety, Fry is set to play Jasper in Cruella, with Paul Walter Hauser ( I, Tonya) costarring as Horace. It was previously reported that Hauser is playing Roger from 101 Dalmatians, but it makes more sense for him to be portraying Jasper's companion (seeing as, prior to 101 Dalmatians, Roger and Cruella had never met one another).
