Every Disney fan out there has been freaking out over the new live action remake of “Beauty and the Beast” starring Emma Watson. The gorgeous trailer came out earlier this year and made us all swoon with its awe inspiring visuals and spot on mirroring of the original animated movie trailer. Since then, fans have been holding on to every little sneak peak of the movie that has come out. It had been a while since we’d heard about this movie, until recently when our prayers were answered.
Disney recently released two sketches that give us an early inside look into the movie. The first is of Belle’s second most loved dress, the blue peasant dress. Here is the sketch:
I think this remake is beautiful and definitely matches what I would imagine Emma Watson's interpretation of Belle would look like. The dress is a lot less prim and proper than the original and takes a grungy turn. The outfit includes a messy side pony, instead of Belle's usual bowed pony tail. Emma will also be wearing boots and some dish towels around the belt of the dress to tie together the look. This outfit is definitely more historically accurate and realistic than Belle's original cartoon look, so I think it is perfect for this live action look at the story.
Our next sneak peak is this lovely sketch of Belle's cottage, the one she lives in with her father at the beginning of the movie.
This stunning adaptation of the original is, similar to the dress above, so much more realistic and grunge looking. It is very similar to the cottage from the animated film, but I love that it looks more down to earth and less happy than the original.
If I wasn't already excited for this film, I definitely am now. I can't wait to see Emma Watson's version of Belle. If these sketches say anything, it's that Belle is about to get her hands dirty. I can't wait to see how this movie turns out!
