'Beauty and the Beast' 2017 Update: Co-Producer Jack Morrissey Reveals First Look of Cast
Early this month, co-producer Jack Morrissey posted photos of the "Beauty and the Beast" cast in their costumes.
The "Beauty and the Beast" teaser trailer welcomed the viewers in May saying, "Be our guest". However, it seems like co-producer Jack Morrissey wants the guest list to be filled even before the movie is released.
Morrissey presented a couple of images showing how the set of the movie looks like. He clarified that the photos came from the "Sneak Peak" segment of Disney's "Beauty and the Beast" classic DVD which will be released next month.

While Emma Watson's final look as Belle is still a blur, Morrissey gave a glimpse of how Dan Stevens will look like in his princely attire with his long hair and candid smile.
The cast were also seen in their rehearsal suits, where Luke Evans (Gaston) and Watsons were found in midground, practicing their dancing and singing for the Gaston song.
On the same album, a photo revealed how Luke Evans looks like when he's wearing his Gaston costume. It also showed Josh Gad, who plays the role of comical LeFou.
The clock, Cogsworth, and the candelabra, Lumiere, were likewise featured on Morrissey's Facebook album. He said that the images will be the basis for Ian McKellen and Ewan McGregor's costumes for their roles as Cogsworth and Lumiere, respectively. He also noted that the designs were great, but they may not be the final look yet.
The album also displayed several screen captures of the filming of "Beauty and the Beast", which trended quickly on the social networking site.
