Games Of Thrones Madden To Be Prince
Richard Madden, better known as Game Of Thrones’ Robb Stark, is set to go from King Of The North to a Prince in Disney’s live-action Cinderella. Downtown Abbey and Fast Girls’ star Lily James is set to play the titular Cinderella who becomes a princess over night while her evil step-mother, to be played by Cate Blanchett, will stop at nothing to take her place. The film was originally going to be directed by Never Let Me Go’s Mark Romanek but he left over creative differences paving the way for Thor and upcoming Jack Ryan director Kenneth Branagh. The film marks a new trend from Disney who are in the process of bringing some of their much-loved animated stories to life with Angelina Jolie starring as Sleeping Beauty’s Maleficent next year. Before he starts asking ladies to try on a glass slipper, Madden has on going kingly duties in Game Of Thrones as well as starring in two films later this year with A Promise and Long Nights Short Mornings.
