1. Bette Midler. Need I Say More?
Literally, Bette Midler. The Divine Miss M! The woman who gave us ‘The Rose’ and ‘Hocus Pocus.’ If anyone can bring sass, wisdom, and a killer song to the role of Fairy Godmother, it’s her. We are not worthy, but we are SO ready.

You know Netflix doesn’t do basic. ‘Steps’ is reportedly a modern take, so forget the pumpkin carriage. We’re talking maybe a tricked-out electric scooter? Or perhaps a self-driving limo? The possibilities are endless and my curiosity is piqued.
3. The Title ‘Steps’ Is Lowkey Intriguing
Why ‘Steps’? Is it about climbing the social ladder? Or literal steps in a dance competition? Maybe it’s a metaphor for taking big leaps in life? Honestly, the mystery is killing me, and I love it. Give us answers, Netflix!
4. Musical Numbers Are a MUST
With Bette Midler involved, we’re practically guaranteed some show-stopping musical numbers. I’m already picturing her belting out a ballad about believing in yourself. Please, oh please, let there be a montage scene with a killer soundtrack.

Imagine Bette Midler rolling her eyes as Cinderella makes a ridiculous wish. She’s done comedy for decades, so I’m expecting some seriously witty one-liners. No more sweet, simpering magical beings. We need a godmother with attitude!
6. The Potential for a Killer Soundtrack
Beyond Bette’s numbers, who else is rumored to be on the soundtrack? Is it all pop hits? Original songs? If they get some serious talent involved, this could be the soundtrack of the year. I’m manifesting a Dua Lipa feature.
7. Modern Cinderella = Relatable Problems
A reimagined Cinderella probably means she’s dealing with more than just a wicked stepmother. Maybe she’s struggling with student loans? Or trying to launch her own business? I can totally see Bette giving her advice on adulting.
