Fans React to ‘Beauty and the Beast’ Trailer
The first trailer for the highly anticipated live action remake of Disney’s Beauty and the Beast has finally arrived.
The trailer doesn’t show much, but it gives a peek at the castle and some of its rooms as the familiar score from the 1991 animated film music plays. Voices are heard near the end, with Lumiere saying, “Look, it’s a girl!” Cogsworth replies, “Yes, I can see it’s a girl, you fool!” Lumiere then says,“What if she’s the one?” The teaser then concludes with a glimpse of Emma Watson as Belle looking at a rose encased in glass.
In addition to Watson, the film stars Dan Stevens as the Beast, Luke Evans as Gaston, Ewan McGregor as Lumiere, Ian McKellen as Cogsworth, Emma Thompson as Mrs. Potts, Josh Gad as Le Fou, and Kevin Kline as Maurice. It will also feature Stanley Tucci and Audra McDonald.
It may be a tale as old as time, but the release of the trailer sent the Internet into a frenzy Monday. Check out some of the fan reactions below.
Plenty of fans were ecstatic:
