VIDEO: First Look - Cate Blanchett & More in All-New CINDERELLA Trailer!

Walt Disney Studios has just released an all new trailer from the spectacular new live action film CINDERELLA, opening in theaters March 13, 2015! Get a first look below!

The story of "Cinderella" follows the fortunes of young Ella (Lily James) whose merchant father remarries following the death of her mother. Eager to support her loving father, Ella welcomes her new Stepmother (Cate Blanchett) and her daughters Anastasia (Holliday Grainger) and Drisella (Sophie McShera) into the family home. But, when Ella's father unexpectedly passes away, she finds herself at the mercy of a jealous and cruel new family.

Soon, she is forced to become their servant, disrespected, covered in ashes and spitefully renamed Cinderella. Yet, despite the cruelty inflicted upon her, Ella will not give in to despair nor despise those who mistreat her, and she continues to remain positive, determined to honor her mother's dying words and to "have courage and be kind."

When Ella meets a dashing stranger in the woods, unaware that he is really the Prince (Richard Madden) and not merely Kit, an apprentice at the palace, she believes she has finally found a kindred soul. It appears her fortunes may be about to change when the King (Derek Jacobi) summons all maidens in the kingdom to attend a royal ball at the palace, raising Ella's hopes of once again encountering the charming Kit. Alas, her Stepmother forbids her to attend and callously destroys her dress.

Meanwhile, the calculating Grand Duke (Stellan Skarsgård) devises a plan to thwart the Prince's hopes of reuniting with Ella and enlists the support of the devious Stepmother. But, as in all good fairy tales, help is at hand. Soon, a kindly beggar woman (Helena Bonham Carter) steps forward and, armed with a pumpkin, a few mice and a magic wand, changes Cinderella's life forever.

Cate Blanchett will soon star in the U.S. premiere of Jean Genet's The Maids. The Sydney Theater Company's production will be part of the 2014 Lincoln Center Festival. The actress received the Academy Award for her role in The Aviator, and received a nomination for the films Notes on a Scandal, I'm Not There and Elizabeth: The Golden Age.

Her other film credits include Blue Jasmine, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and The Lord of the Rings trilogy. Her recent notable stage roles include Uncle Vanya, Big and Small, A Streetcar Named Desire and Hedda Gabler.
