TV director and actress Cecilie Mosli (the TV series Thin Ice) is now shooting a new family film entitled Three Wishes for Cinderella. The project, a modern remake of the 1973 Czech feature of the same name directed by Václav Vorlíček, was penned by Kamilla Krogsveen and Karsten Fullu alongside writing duo Anna Bache-Wiig and Siv Rajendram Eliassen.

The story follows Cinderella (played by popular Norwegian music star Astrid Smeplass, best known as Astrid S), who, armed with a great deal of courage, and empowered by her three magical hazelnuts, is able to break free from her cruel stepmother's tyranny and rescue the prince (Cengiz Al) from his gilded cage.
