Disney Dish Out New Beauty And The Beast Poster

Disney has released a simple, yet elegant new poster for their Beauty and the Beast remake which pays homage to the 1994 classic. It’s the latest bit of promotional material to arrive on the web, after we got a new batch of photos early last week. They gave us a look at the star-studded cast in costume and while this new poster is nowhere near as revealing, it’s a welcome piece of art nonetheless.


Behind the camera for the remake is Bill Condon, who’ll be directing Emma Watson and Dan Stevens as the titular pair. As you can see in the gallery below, the poster is reminiscent of the one for the original, and is a nice nod to what’s widely considered to be one of Disney’s very best films.


Watson and Stevens may anchor the fairytale as the titular, lovestruck pair, but Bill Condon and Disney have assembled quite the stellar cast to fill out Beauty and the Beast. Chief among them are Ian McKellen and Ewan McGregor, who are on board as as Cogsworth and Lumiere, respectively. Elsewhere, Luke Evans will play the part of Gaston, Emma Thompson as Mrs Potts., Gugu Mbatha-Raw as Plumette and Kevin Kline as Belle’s father, Maurice. Josh Gad and Stanley Tucci also star.


Beauty and the Beast is set to hit theaters March 17, 2017
