Two new members join the cast of Disney's new live action Beauty and the Best. First we have Downton Abbey's Dan Stevens who will be playing the Beast/Prince joining him will be Luke Evens playing Gaston. They will both stay along side Harry Potter's Emma Watson. What a cast. I can't wait to see the final product.
Downton Abbey’s Dan Stevens is in talks to take the title role in Disney’s forthcoming live action Beauty and the Beast remake, according to the Hollywood Reporter. If negotiations are successful, he will star opposite Harry Potter’s Emma Watson, who is taking her first lead role in a major film since the wildly successful series of fantasy films which made her name.
