Trivia

During filming, Lily James (Cinderella) and Helena Bonham Carter (who plays her Fairy Godmother and wears an equally huge gown) had to get used to it taking a tedious amount of time to be dressed. While it initially took about an hour to get into costume, in the end, the process was brought down to twenty minutes. See more »

Goofs

Cinderella's glass shoes magically appear on her feet, obviously under her dress. When the magic has finished she looks out in front of her dress at the spot where her old shoes were and asks, "They're made of glass?". See more »

Quotes

Lady Tremaine: [Captain and Lady Tramaine walking into Cinderella's room] There, see, I told you, there is no one of any importance.
Captain: [to Lady Tremaine] We'll see about that.
[to Cinderella]
Captain: Miss, you are requested and required to present yourself to your king.
