In a video posted by one of the cars that were stopped for the event, the group of stars can be seen jumping for joy and singing in costumes that look plucked directly from the upcoming film. Corden, dressed as a mouse, at one point goes up to the driver’s side window and thrusts his pelvis as he sings the chorus of the song.

As Elle notes, production on “Cinderella” has been over for a while, but like many movies in 2020 saw their release date waylaid by the infectious-disease out of fear of opening to a limited audience. It has since landed at Amazon Prime Video, where users will be able to stream it right in their homes starting on Sept. 3, 2021.
