Beauty and the Beast is perhaps one of Disney’s most beloved and successful animated features, especially from its era.
They are joined by Ewan McGregor (Lumiere), Ian McKellen (Cogsworth), Emma Thompson (Mrs. Potts) and Gugu Mbatha-Raw (Plumette).
Harry Potter alum and gender equality ambassador Emma Watson is the Belle of the ball as the lead alongside Dan Stevens (Downton Abby) as the Beast and Luke Evans (The Hobbit) as Gaston.
Due to Disney’s recent success with live-action adaptations from their animated catalog, and the buzz already surrounding this feature, the studio does not need much to encourage audience interest between now and the movie’s 2017 release.
