In case you've been absent from social media today, Disney dropped the first full-length trailer of Beauty and the Beast on Good Morning America. To say it was amazing is an understatement! We can't wait to see the movie this coming March 17th, 2017!

 

A few things that caught our eye (and warmed our hearts) was how perfect Emma Watson appears to portray Belle! I can almost feel the chemistry between her and Beast in the trailer! To see these characters as real people vs an animation will be very intriguing.

We did a little digging and found out a few things that will set this movie apart from the original. The script has been updated to show Belle as less of a Damsel and more in control of her destiny. Minor adjustments to wardrobe were also made for practicality. More background is also set to be given for Belle and Beast to further pull you in and understand their story.

Director Bill Condon (also directed Twilight Saga, Dreamgirls) has brought in Alan Menken, who wrote the original score of ''Be Our Guest'' to add more songs to this iconic film! Tim Rice has also been brought in to add a few tracks to the movie. This one is sure to be a must-watch!

To sum it up we are very excited for March to come!
