Disney serves up film adaptations of its cartoons like on an assembly line. Let's remember. In recent years, classics such as Alice in Wonderland, Villain and Cinderella, The Jungle Book is coming, and in 2017 the Legend of Tarzan and Beauty and the Beast, which also received a feature film before the Hollywood treatment French language version. Instead of Léa Seydoux (Spectre, The Grand Budapest Hotel), the main role in the long-awaited film was given to the charming Emma Watson (Harry Potter saga, Noah, Bling Ring), who can be seen in the first trailer.
Beauty and the Beast is a timeless book classic Madame de Villeneuve about a beautiful girl and a terrifying creature we all know. It stuck in our memory the most as a Disney cartoon from the year 1991, in 2014 it also got a feature version of the French-German production, and now Beauty and the Beast has taken on another Hollywood (the first film version of Jean Cocteau dates back to 1947). He entrusted the main role Emma Watson, who some time ago shared the news that she had received the role Belle.
"I can finally tell you. In a Disney movie I will be playing Belle in Beauty and the Beast. This fairy tale was a big part of my growing up, so I still can't believe I'll be able to dance to the song Be Our Guest and sang Something There. The six-year-old in me is jumping to the ceiling. Time to start singing lessons!” she finished excitedly.
