They join an all-star voice cast that includes Ali Wong (Lilith), Amanda Seyfried (Cinderella), Stephanie Hsu (Margot), Nikki Glaser (Priscilla), and Bette Midler (Fairy Godmother).
Directed by Alyce Tzue (Student Academy Awards gold medal winner) & John Ripa (co-director on Raya and the Last Dragon) and slated for release on November 20, 2026, Steps marks the first film to be fully produced in-house within Netflix Animation Studios.
Think you know Cinderella’s “evil” stepsisters? Think again. Sick of living in Cinderella’s shadow, Lilith (Ali Wong) steals the Fairy Godmother (Bette Midler)’s magic wand and hijacks the Royal Ball with her sister Margot (Stephanie Hsu), breaking the Cinderella story as we know it and dooming the kingdom to the tyrannical rule of Priscilla (Nikki Glaser), a villainous schemer who swoops in and snatches the throne. Now, Lilith must team up with Cinderella (Amanda Seyfried) to fight biker trolls, outrun evil henchmen, and escape the Screaming Woods on an epic quest to save the kingdom, but most importantly, their relationship.
Steps is produced by Amy Poehler, Jane Hartwell and Kim Lessing (Poehler and Lessing producing for Paper Kite Productions) with a screenplay by Ava Tramer, James Madejski, Jen Chuck, Dana Schwartz and Felicia Ho from a story by Tramer, Madejski, Schwartz, Ho, Riki Lindhome and Kate Micucci. The film is part of Netflix’s original slate of animated features which includes KPop Demon Hunters (the most popular Netflix film ever); Academy Award®-winner Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio, the Academy Award®-nominated films Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl, Nimona, The Sea Beast, The Mitchells vs. The Machines, Over the Moon, A Shaun the Sheep Movie: Farmageddon and Klaus; the BAFTA®-nominated Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget and the comedy fan favorites Swapped, Leo and Back to the Outback.
