(PCM) It’s less than a year away from the scheduled August 1, 2015 release date for 20th Century Fox’s The Fantastic Four reboot and there’s very little to show for it.

Up until now, there was only an official cast to speculate with, no synopsis, poster, trailer, or even official set photos. 20th Century Fox has answered Fantastic Four fans’ prayers and finally released the official synopsis, which states:

(PCM) Cate Blanchett poses a very intimidating and fashionable Wicked Stepmother in the new poster for Disney’s live action adaptation of Cinderella.

With a black-gloved hand on one hip and the other looking as though it should be supported by a cane, Cate Blanchett delivers on the cool, cold manipulative aura of Lady Tremaine, better known as Cinderella’s Wicked Stepmother, in her dramatic black hat and beautifully tailored gold with black floral pattern, black, and dark green gown.

Holliday Grainger and Sophie McShera flank Blanchett on both sides as the Wicked Stepsisters, sporting much brighter but also floral getups in the new poster.

Sixty-five years after Disney’s classic animated tale delighted audiences, Cinderella is slated to open in theaters nationwide March 13, 2015.
