A Very Special Girl

It’s a tale as old as time that of the Beauty and the Beast.

And that is why Disney has remade its 1991 Best Picture Oscar-nominated Beauty and the Beast as a live-action musical directed by Bill Condon (Dreamgirls) and starring Emma Watson and Ryan Gosling Dan Stevens.

Herewith is the first teaser for the film, which is scheduled to be released next March 17:

Beauty and the Beast will feature Luke Evans (High-Rise) as Gaston, Audra McDonald as lady-in-waiting/wardrobe Garderobe, and Ewan McGregor as Lumiere, among others.
