The Harry Potter actress is thrilled beyond words for the latest piece of “Beauty and the Beast” casting news!
Dan Stevens, from Downton Abbey, and Luke Evans, known for a dozen of Hollywood ensembles he’s part of, are on-board to portray ‘Beast’ and ‘Gaston,’ respectively.
Emma has already expressed her joy for Dan on Twitter, saying “Could not be more happy that this man will be Beast!!! Welcome aboard @thatdanstevens #beautyandthebeast.”
Meanwhile, “Bonjour Gaston! Welcome! #BeautyAndTheBeast,” were her welcoming words to Luke.
The former tweeted a photo with the words “BEAST MODE,” an indication that he’s also ecstatic about the gig.
Disney, the brains behind this yet-another fairy tale adaptation, is still mum if the flick’s going to be a musical or not. [Don’t put those great songs to waste, guys!]
More on the lovely Emma!
