Aug. 14 (UPI) -- Emma Stone is set to star in the sequel to her Disney hit, Cruella.
Deadline and Variety reported Friday that Stone has officially inked a deal to play the titular villain in Cruella 2, another prequel to the studio's classic 101 Dalmations story.
Cruella was released in theaters and on Disney+ in May. The live-action film co-starred Emma Thompson, Joel Fry, Paul Walter Hauser, Emily Beecham, Kirby Howell-Baptiste and Mark Strong.
