Feb. 17 (UPI) -- Disney is giving a glimpse of its new movie Cruella.

Cruella gives an origin story for Cruella, who is a young fashion designer in the movie.

"From the very beginning, I realized I saw the world differently than everyone else," the character says. "That didn't sit well with some people."

"But I wasn't for everyone," she adds. "I guess they were always scared that I'd be a... psycho."

In the preview, Cruella is seen unveiling a new look at a gala, being barked at by dalmatians and wreaking havoc around the city.

"The thing is, I was born brilliant. Born bad. And a little bit mad," she says.

Disney released a poster for the film Tuesday.

Cruella is directed by Craig Gillespie (I, Tonya) and co-stars Emma Thompson, Joel Fry, Paul Walter Hauser, Emily Beecham and Mark Strong. The movie opens in theaters May 28.
