A first cast photo from the new Beauty and the Beast just dropped!

Roll on 2017! It might be early days yet for the live-action Beauty and the Beast movie, but we are already getting butterflies.

With Emma Watson signed on as Belle, Luke Evans as Gaston, Dan Stevens as Beast, Frozen's Josh Gad as LeFou and Ian McKellen as Cogsworth the clock, it has to be one of the most well casted films in quite a while.

Yesterday we finally got a first glimpse at a cast picture, when Josh posted this cute group shot of himself, Dan, Luke and Kevin Kline (Maurice) all together, captioning it, "Can't wait for you to be our guest." 

 

Can't wait for you to be our guest.

So exciting!
