Disney releases Beauty and the Beast live-action sneak peek

September 1, 2016 by Gary Collinson

Following on from the concept art of Lumiere and Cogsworth and the first look at Dan Stevens’ Prince, Disney has now released a brief sneak peek at the live-action Beauty and the Beast movie, which includes a glimpse of Stevens and Emma Watson reading lines; check it out here…

The sneak peek is part of a longer preview of the live-action movie, which is included as a bonus feature on this month’s 25th anniversary re-release of the 1991 animated classic.

Disney’s “Beauty and the Beast” is a live-action re-telling of the studio’s animated classic which refashions the classic characters from the tale as old as time for a contemporary audience, staying true to the original music while updating the score with several new songs. “Beauty and the Beast” is the fantastic journey of Belle, a bright, beautiful and independent young woman who is taken prisoner by a beast in his castle. Despite her fears, she befriends the castle’s enchanted staff and learns to look beyond the Beast’s hideous exterior and realize the kind heart and soul of the true Prince within. 

Beauty and the Beast is directed by Bill Condon (Dreamgirls) and sees Emma Watson as Belle alongside Dan Stevens as Beast, while the cast also includes Ewan McGregor as Lumiere, Emma Thompson as Mrs. Potts, Luke Evans as Gaston, Gugu Mbatha-Raw as Plumette, Stanley Tucci as Cadenza, Ian McKellen as Cogsworth, Kevin Kline as Maurice, Josh Gad as Le Fou. The film is set for release on March 17th, 2017.
