Disney’s Beauty and the Beast is coming to theatres soon, and it has an all-star cast including Emma Watson as Belle and Dan Stevens as the Beast. One of the newest members of the cast is Fra Fee, who attended Hawkeye Community College before making it big in Hollywood!
Fra Fee has since made his way to Disney and Beauty and the Beast to play one of Belle’s childhood friends! “When I got offered this movie I was like ‘Oh my god!’ because I’ve seen all the movies, ‘Beauty and The Beast’ all the way back to when they first came out,” Fra Fee said. “It was a dream come true to get this role. It’s a very heavy comedic role. I’m glad that I get to play this role, because it was so different from anything in my career.” Fra Fee also had a cameo in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, which means he’s got quite a few projects on his resume.
Do you know about the release date of Beauty and the Beast:
This series will be released on 14 April 2022. The series has the main character Belle, the Beast, Gaston and other characters from Disney’s original movie. The series will consist of five new episodes in total. This is the first time Disney is releasing a full series for its remake movies. Fans of Beauty and the Beast will be happy to see the scenes that were removed from the movie, as well as new adventures that didn’t make it into the movie version. I believe fans of Emma Watson will be excited to see her play Belle again! You can buy Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas as well!
Here is the plot of Beauty and the Beast:
The main character is Belle, a young woman who lives in New York and has a secret past as the daughter of a major wife. Her father is an old tycoon who works with the mayor of New York to keep the city clean and safe.
However, during one night, Belle’s father’s business partner Maurice gets away from him and lays a curse on her family. As punishment for her father’s mistake, he locks Belle in his mansion until she can prove herself innocent. She summons the aid of three friends Lumiere (an ex-butler), Cogsworth (a clock) and Mrs Potts (Belle’s nanny).

What do you think of the live-action remake of Beauty and the Beast so far?
They did a good job. I think Emma Watson did a good job as Belle, but I didn’t really understand why the beast was so mysterious, but the movie is definitely worth watching and is a great movie to watch with the family. The Enchanted Christmas will be released on 4 December 2017. The cast of Beauty and the Beast:The Enchanted Christmas will be announced soon. Among them, we can see Disney’s real potential.
What are your thoughts on Emma Watson playing Belle in the movie?
I think she did a great job and reminded me of the original Belle. I thought she did a great job of portraying her character and it was definitely one of my favourite Christmas movies. I really enjoyed the movie, and thought that it was a really good retelling and a great movie for family.

Are you excited for Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas?
I’m very excited for Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas because I’m so glad that Disney are releasing another series! It will be great to see Emma Watson back in a new series as Belle. I’m also very excited to see all of the other actors in it! The live-action remake of Beauty and the Beast is coming out on 4 December 2017. It will have five new episodes in total.
Do you think Disney did a good job with the overall story and characters?
I think it was good and I think the characters were very well done. I also thought that they did a great job with Emma Watson’s character, Belle. The CGI in this movie looked really realistic compared to other movies and it definitely had a lot of details that you would see in the original.
What is your favourite part of the Beauty and the Beast remake?
I liked when they pricked Belle’s finger on her birthday cake to wake her up in the original story, but without showing blood or anything like that. It was definitely one of my favourites because I love Belle and she woke up, so it was sweet.
