Netflix's 'Steps' Trailer Reimagines Cinderella From Stepsisters' View

Published 17 September 2026

Netflix has released the first trailer for "Steps," an animated fantasy comedy that reimagines the classic Cinderella story from the perspective of the stepsisters. The film, scheduled to premiere exclusively on Netflix on November 20, 2026, marks a significant production milestone as the first feature created entirely in-house by Netflix Animation Studios. The story centers on Lilith, voiced by Ali Wong, who grows tired of living in Cinderella's shadow. She steals the Fairy Godmother's magic wand and hijacks the Royal Ball with her sister Margot, voiced by Stephanie Hsu. This act disrupts the traditional fairy tale narrative and inadvertently allows the villainous Priscilla, voiced by Nikki Glaser, to seize control of the kingdom. To correct her mistake, Lilith must form an unlikely alliance with Cinderella, voiced by Amanda Seyfried. Together, they embark on a quest to save the kingdom, battling biker trolls, evil henchmen, and navigating the treacherous Screaming Woods. The film's synopsis emphasizes that their journey is as much about saving their relationship as it is about restoring order.
