On the Spoiler Special podcast, Slate critics discuss movies, the occasional TV show, and, once in a blue moon, another podcast, in full spoiler-filled detail. This week, Slate’s movie critic Dana Stevens is joined by Slate staff writer, Dana Stevens, to spoil Cruella, the new Disney live-action origin story for one of it’s most infamous villains, Cruella de Vil.  

Who was Cruella before she became the Cruella we all know and hate? This teen-friendly backstory holds the answers. 

Note: As the title indicates, this podcast contains spoilers galore.
