🎬 102 Dalmatians 2 (2025)
👉 Glenn Close, Gérard Depardieu, Ioan Gruffudd
The spots are back — and so is fashion’s most fabulously wicked villain. Nearly twenty-five years after her last escapade, Glenn Close once again struts onto the screen as Cruella de Vil in 102 Dalmatians 2 (2025), a bold, stylish, and delightfully outrageous continuation of Disney’s beloved live-action series.

Having narrowly escaped justice time and again, Cruella insists she has turned over a new leaf. But when London’s fashion world crowns a new rising star, Cruella’s jealousy — and her obsession with spotted fur — come roaring back to life. Determined to reclaim her throne as the queen of couture, she hatches her most elaborate plan yet: a global fashion heist that could make her legacy eternal, if only she can get her claws on one last perfect dalmatian coat.

Teaming up once more with the flamboyant Jean-Pierre Le Pelt (Gérard Depardieu), Cruella sets her sights on a brand-new litter of puppies. But she quickly discovers she’s up against more than just determined animal lovers. Kevin (Ioan Gruffudd), now running an expanded animal rescue with the help of a new generation of dalmatians, rallies his team — both human and canine — to stop her. From the cobblestone streets of London to glittering runways in Paris, the battle of style versus loyalty escalates into a spectacle of slapstick chaos, daring rescues, and lavish fashion shows gone hilariously wrong.

Glenn Close once again commands every scene with delicious wickedness, balancing Cruella’s outrageous flair with sharp comedic timing. Her dazzling costumes, dripping with eccentric glamour, make her as unforgettable as ever. Depardieu turns up the absurdity as Le Pelt, while Gruffudd provides the heart and grounding as the everyman determined to protect his four-legged family.
With laugh-out-loud antics, over-the-top set pieces, and a fresh litter of adorable pups ready to steal hearts, 102 Dalmatians 2 recaptures the playful magic of the originals while reintroducing Cruella de Vil to a whole new generation.
Big, bold, and brimming with fur-raising fun, 102 Dalmatians 2 (2025) proves that sometimes heroes come with wagging tails — and villains never really go out of style.
