Beauty and the Beasts' Gaston and the Beast has been Cast

As many of you already know, Disney is making a "Beauty and the Beast" live action movie to add to their recent live-action remakes of their princess fairy tales (what with "Maleficent" re-imagining the Sleeping Beauty story from its "supposed-villain" point of view, and the upcoming "Cinderella" which just looks like a plain live-action remake of the fairy tale Disney cartoon). Emma Watson is already set to play Belle (the story's Beauty), and now, the cast for its two other major characters have recently been named. "Downton Abbey" star Dan Stevens will be playing the Beast, while Luke Evans will play the arrogant villain Gaston. Bill Condon, who directed "Dreamgirls" and "Gods and Monsters", is set to helm this Disney live-action.

We last saw Stevens in the action thriller "The Guest" and "A Walk Among the Tombstones" with Liam Neeson, while Luke Evans was in last year's "The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies" and "Dracula Untold". He proved his mettle in the villain shoes when he was the main nemesis in the sixth "Fast and Furious" movie. A release date is not yet set for Beauty and the Beast, but filming is poised to get underway later this year.
