NEW YORK, Nov. 30 (UPI) -- Anna Kendrick says she was pleased to hear her Into the Woods director Rob Marshall say he wanted to infuse the movie musical's fairytale characters with a modern sensibility.
Kendrick plays Cinderella to Chris Pine's Prince Charming in the film, which is set to open nationwide Dec. 25. Unlike the traditional telling of the tale, this Cinderella leaves her husband after she realizes she wants more out of life -- and because he was spotted kissing the baker's wife in the forest.
