This is a request by Dragon123r for Lady Tremaine (Cate Blanchett) from Disney's Cinderella 2015 live action remake in this dress being bound and gagged.
Lady Madonna Tremaine is the main antagonist of the 2015 fantasy romance film Cinderella, a live-action remake of the 1950 traditionally animated classic film of the same name.
She is the wife of the late Lord Francis Tremaine and the mother of Anastasia and Drizella Tremaine. Following her husband's death, Lady Tremaine marries Cinderella's father, but after her second husband dies as well, she grows to be more jealous and greedier, becoming an abusive stepmother for Cinderella. She is also based off her original incarnation with the same name.
Lady Tremaine has had her share of broken dreams, which have left her cruel, bitter, and manipulative. She longs to have a life that is taken care of from a financial point of view and a secure future for her daughters. However, she is easily jealous of any affection her second husband bestows upon his biological daughter Ella, whom she grows to resent for her youth, innocence, and goodness.
Following the death of her second husband, the financial pressures and panic cause Lady Tremaine's jealousy to grow, and it manifested itself through cruelty and contempt directed at her stepdaughter, who is forced to become the servant of her own house. In the end, though, Lady Tremaine's jealousy, spite and ambition get the better of her.
Cate Blanchett was born on May 14, 1969 in Melbourne, Victoria,
Australia, to June (Gamble), an Australian teacher and property
developer, and Robert DeWitt Blanchett, Jr., an American advertising
bexecutive, originally from Texas. She has an older brother and a younger
sister. When she was ten years old, her 40-year-old father died of a
sudden heart attack. Her mother never remarried, and her grandmother
moved in to help her mother.
Cate graduated from Australia's
National Institute of Dramatic Art in 1992 and, in a little over a year,
had won both critical and popular acclaim. On graduating from NIDA, she
joined the Sydney Theatre Company's production of Caryl Churchill's "Top Girls", then played Felice Bauer, the bride, in Tim Daly's
"Kafka Dances", winning the 1993 Newcomer Award from the Sydney Theatre
Critics Circle for her performance. From there, Blanchett moved to the
role of Carol in David Mamt's
searing polemic "Oleanna", also for the Sydney Theatre Company, and won
the Rosemont Best Actress Award, her second award that year. She then
co-starred in the ABC Television's prime time drama Heartland 1994,
again winning critical acclaim. In 1995, she was nominated for Best
Female Performance for her role as Ophelia in the Belvoir Street Theatre
Company's production of "Hamlet". Other theatre credits include Helen
in the Sydney Theatre Company's "Sweet Phoebe", Miranda in "The Tempest"
and Rose in "The Blind Giant is Dancing", both for the Belvoir Street
Theatre Company. In other television roles, Blanchett starred as Bianca
in ABC's Bordertown (1995), as Janie Morris in G.P. (1989) and in ABC's popular series Police Rescue (1994). She made her feature film debut in Paradise Road (1997).
Cate married writer Andrew Upton
in 1997. She had met him a year earlier on a movie set, and they didn't
like each other at first. He thought she was aloof, and she thought he
was arrogant, but then they connected over a poker game at a party, and
she went home with him that night. Three weeks later he proposed
marriage and they quickly married before she went off to England to play
her breakthrough role in films: the title character in Elizabeth (1998)
for which she won numerous awards for her performance, including the
Golden Globe for Best Actress in a Drama. Cate was also nominated for an
Academy Award for the role but lost out to Gwyneth Paltrow. 2001 was a particularly busy year, with starring roles in Bandits (2001), The Shipping News (2001), Charlotte Gray (2001)
and playing Elf Queen Galadriel in the "Lord Of The Rings" trilogy. She
also gave birth to her first child, son Dashiell, in 2001. In 2004, she
gave birth to her second son Roman.
Also, in 2004, she played actress Katharine Hepburn in Martin Scorsese's film The Aviator (2004),
for which she received an Academy Award as Best Supporting Actress. Two
years later, she received an Academy Award nomination as Best
Supporting Actress for playing a teacher having an affair with an
underage student in Notes on a Scandal (2007). In 2007, she returned to the role that made her a star in Elizabeth the Golden Age (2007).
It earned her an Oscar nomination as Best Actress. She was nominated
for another Oscar that same year as Best Supporting Actress for playing Bob Dylan in I'm No There (2007).
In 2008, she gave birth to her third child, son Ignatius. She and her
husband became artistic directors of the Sydney Theatre Company,
choosing to spend more time in Australia raising their three sons. She
also purchased a multi-million dollar home in Sydney, Australia and
named it Bulwarra and made extensive renovations to it. Because of her
life in Australia, her film work became sporadic, until Woody Allen cast her in the title role in Blue Jasmine (2013),
which won her the Academy Award as Best Actress. She ended her job as
artistic director of the Sydney Theatre Company, while her husband
continued there for two more years before he too resigned.
In
2015, she adopted her daughter Edith in her father's homeland of the
United States. That same year, she and her husband sold their
multi-million dollar home in Australia at a profit and moved to America.
Reasons varied from her wanting to work more in America to wanting to
familiarize herself with her late father's American heritage. She played
the title role of Carol (2015),
a 1950s American housewife in a lesbian affair with a younger woman,
for which she received an Oscar nomination as Best Actress. While most
actresses might slow down in their forties, Blanchett did the opposite
by stretching her boundaries even further, such as when she played 13
different characters in Manifesto (2015)
and then making her Broadway debut in 2017 in "The Present", which is
her husband's adaptation of Chekhov's play "Platonov" for which she
earned a Tony nominatio n as Best Actress in a Play. Also in 2017, she
was selected for the highest honor in her birth country: the Companion
of the Order of Australia (AC).
