Netflix has unveiled the first image from its upcoming animated feature Steps, set for release in 2026. The film offers a fresh perspective on the classic Cinderella story, focusing on the stepsisters as central characters.

The newly released still highlights the film’s unique visual style and introduces audiences to a reimagined fairytale world. Ali Wong and Stephanie Hsu will voice the stepsisters, Lilith and Margot, who are portrayed as more complex and sympathetic than their traditional storybook versions.

Directed by Alyce Tzue and John Ripa, Steps follows Lilith as she joins forces with Cinderella and an unexpected troll character to mend their fractured fairytale and show that even so-called villains deserve a happy ending. The story centers on two sisters—one who fits into the fairytale world and one who does not—discovering their similarities and the power of kindness.

The directors have described the film as a personal and meaningful project, aiming to resonate with anyone who has ever felt like an outsider. Steps is part of Netflix’s growing lineup of original animated features, which includes titles such as KPop Demon Hunters, Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio, Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl, Nimona, The Sea Beast, The Mitchells vs. The Machines, Over the Moon, A Shaun the Sheep Movie: Farmageddon, Klaus, Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget, Leo, Back to the Outback, and In Your Dreams.
