Oscar winning-actress Emma Stone has signed a deal to star in the second instalment of `Cruella`. The news of `Cruella 2` came out in early June, just weeks after the live-action prequel to the Disney animated classic `101 Dalmations` opened in theaters, reports variety.com.

Talking about the new deal, Patrick Whitesell, Executive Chairman of Endeavor said: "While the media landscape has been disrupted in a meaningful way for all distributors, their creative partners cannot be left on the sidelines to carry a disproportionate amount of the downside without the potential for upside."
