Narm: The sheer amount of Lampshade Hanging from Narissa on all the tropes being subverted in the climax.And Giselle thinking for any real length of time that he's dead. Like You Would Really Do It: Pip being thrown in the fire.Come Disenchanted (2022), and Giselle's wish to turn her life into more of a fairytale means she is forced to play the trope straight. Also on the subject of stepmothers, part of the film's subversion is that Giselle becomes a stepmother without becoming wicked.Yet, in 2021, Nancy's actress, Idina Menzel, finally played the part of the (straight) Wicked Stepmother in the Prime video version of Cinderella (2021). But it ends up subverted as Nancy is a Nice Girl. Her fears seems justified as Nancy surname is Tremaine, making her an homonym of Lady Tremaine, the stepmother in the Disney version of Cinderella. Still on Nancy topic, Morgan is initially afraid to have a stepmother as her knowledge of them is from fairy tales.Not to mention that Narissa's plans for Giselle at first are very similar to Regina's plan with the dark curse. Queen Narissa herself becomes this after you watch Once Upon a Time and see how close Regina's Evil Queen Self looks like her.Comparing Disney's Into the Woods to the play that inspired it, a scene of Cinderella's Prince cheating on Cinderella became toned down from him seducing the Baker's Wife, to simply him kissing her. When Nancy accuses Robert of cheating on her with Giselle, Giselle seems too naive to think that such activity involves anything more serious than kissing someone other than the one you love.Plus, Nancy married a prince she only knew for one day, while Elsa objects to her younger sister doing the same. Additionally, the Enchanted novelization reveals that Nancy eventually became Queen of Andalasia, while Elsa becomes Queen of Arendelle. And Nancy marrying Edward and becoming an animated princess becomes this as of 2013 - her actress, Idina Menzel, voices Elsa.Although an unintentional reference (filming for Enchanted just happened to take place while Returns was in theaters), it still served as a fun little nod to James Marsden's role in that film, and only got funnier once Amy Adams went on to play Lois Lane in Man of Steel.
