The Disney title will aim to shift ‘Peter Rabbit 2’ from the top spot.
Disney’s Cruella becomes the first title to debut in over 500 locations since UK cinemas reopened, as the number of releases grows following last weekend’s strong box office showing.
There are 10 new films debuting in UK cinemas today, plus an additional one which opened on Wednesday. This is up on the five that opened last Friday; at least 11 films did come out on Monday 17 when cinemas reopened, although several of these had previously been released on VoD during the shutdown.

As cinemas re-open, you could do a lot worse than going to see Zebra Girl, a film that feels unlike anything else you’ll have seen for a good long while. To mark the occasion we had the pleasure of speaking to director Stephanie Zari, alongside leading star Sarah Roy.
We discussed the themes of the film, and how they managed to blend the whimsical elements and genre movie tropes, with a moving and challenging subject matter. They talk about their own connection to the themes, dragging as lifeless Tom Cullen around for a week, and we ask Roy if she kept the now iconic pink jumper…

But Zebra Girl’s quirky comedy is not quite distinctive enough, and the script lurches iffily into serious issues of child abuse and mental illness in the second half.
Sarah Roy plays the murderer, Catherine, who grabs a knife from the cutlery drawer after catching husband Dan (Tom Cullen) watching unpleasant porn at 3am in the study of their country pile. A shrieky horror movie score blares as she does the deed and afterwards she wraps a...
