Here is what Christophe Gans has to say about the project that will reportedly start filming in October:
“Although I will keep to a form of storytelling of this timeless fairy tale that is in keeping with the same pace and characters as the original, I will surprise the audience by creating a completely new visual universe never experienced before and produce images of an unparalleled quality… Every single one of my movies has presented me with a challenge but this one is, by far, the most exciting and rewarding.”
As you may have heard last year, it was reported that Guillermo del Toro was also working on a re-adaptation of Beauty and the Beast and Emma Watson was attached to star in it. I’m pretty sure these are two different projects; I can’t say for certain though. But if they are, it’s a possiblity to that we may actually get two Beauty and the Beast movies! Just like the two Snow Whites we are getting this year, it’s kind of insane how obsessed Hollywood is getting with fairy tales. Although, I can’t say that I won’t mind two Beauty and the Beasts.
