Netflix’s “Steps” Continues To Rewrite The Cinderella Story With New Villain Casting Reveal

Fairy tales are often built upon a familiar foundation.

Stories that have been told and retold for generations, with audiences knowing exactly who the heroes are, who the villains are and how the journey ultimately ends. Yet every so often, a creative team comes along and reminds us that there are still new paths left to explore.

That is exactly what Netflix’s forthcoming animated feature film, Steps, has been setting out to accomplish.

Over the past several months, we have been following the various casting announcements, story reveals and creative developments surrounding this fresh new spin on the classic Cinderella tale. With each new detail, it has become increasingly clear that this isn’t simply another retelling of a beloved fairytale. Instead, it is a bold reimagining that asks audiences to look beyond the glass slipper and reconsider the characters they thought they knew.

Now, Netflix has unveiled another key player in this magical adventure.

The streamer has officially revealed that Emmy, Grammy and Golden Globe-nominated comedian and actress Nikki Glaser will voice Priscilla, a villainous schemer who appears ready to redefine fairytale villainy when Steps arrives on Netflix in 2026.
