So James Acaster is in the upcoming Cinderella film and it’s a massive understatement to say it’s stirred the masses into spirals of joy.
The trailer for the Camila Cabello-starring musical dropped via Amazon Prime on Tuesday and featured comic Acaster as one among three mice-turned-footmen, alongside Romesh Ranganathan and James Corden.
Camila performs downtrodden Cinderella, who spends her days within the basement of her residence, making attire below the label Ella, whereas her Stepmother (Idina Menzel) and ugly sisters lord it over her. Sounds fairly basic, proper?
Meanwhile, King Rowan (Pierce Brosnan) and Queen Beatrice (Minnie Driver) throw an enormous ball in a bid to discover a spouse for Prince Robert (Nicholas Galitzine). So far, so fairystyle.
Thanks to her Fairy Godmother (Billy Porter) and three lovable however clumsy footmen (aforementioned Corden, Ranganathan and Acaster) Cinderella will get to the ball, however her assembly with the prince doesn’t precisely go to plan. You know, glass slippers, midnight, that complete shebang…
While, certain, musicals are cool and all that, Acaster quickly started trending on Twitter as excited punters noticed him within the trailer and demanded extra, extra, extra screentime from the Taskmaster icon (who is alleged to have changed John Mulaney).

It appeared extra followers have been gassed on Acaster and Ranganathan’s fleeting appearances than the top-billed names together with Cabello and Brosnan, with one writing on Twitter: ‘Will watch this just for James Acaster and the two lines of dialogue they end up giving him.’
Echoing those self same sentiments, one other added: ‘I will literally only be watching the bits of this film that have James acaster in srry Amazon [sic].’
Many have been demanding justice for Acaster, with some feeling Corden’s second took away his shine: ‘James Acaster is in this as well, but you didn’t see him within the trailer as a result of his face was coated by James Cordon.’
In truth, they dubbed it the Mike Wazowski therapy, from Monsters Inc.
And some, properly some have been feeling litigious: ‘I already know it’s positively going to be the case, but when they gave james corden the entire strains for the footmen and james acaster and romesh solely say like 3 phrases I’m suing. [sic]’
For others, they have been offered on Acaster’s mere presence, as one mused: ‘Ok. When I heard James Corden was going to be in this I was like “Nah mate, not again–” BUT James Acaster in a musical? Yeah I’ll f**ok with that.’
Cinderella is out on September 3 on Amazon Prime Video.
