You need to see the tale as old as time reimagined...

<p>Ever since Disney announced the live action remake of its classic children&rsquo;s movie Beauty and the Beast back in 2015, we&rsquo;ve been waiting with bated breath for a trailer so that we could get a glimpse of Emma Watson (<em>Harry Potter</em>) in the role of Beauty (aka Belle). And for fans everywhere, the wait has seemed like<em> </em>forever.</p><p>But good news! The first official teaser trailer for the film was finally released yesterday &ndash; and it's just as magical as we hoped. Not only do we get to see the depths of Beast&rsquo;s mansion, but we also come face to face with Beauty herself, as she gazes at a <em>very</em> familiar rose.</p><p>See the magic for yourself in the trailer below:</p><p><iframe allowfullscreen frameborder="0" height="415" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Fp0DE1hyO6o" width="760"></iframe></p><p>Doesn&rsquo;t Emma make a stunning Belle? Maybe she is the one, indeed!</p><p>In case you aren't familiar with the original story (where have you been?!), Beauty and the Beast follows the tale of bright, beautiful and independent Belle, who is taken prisoner by a beast in his castle. Despite her fears, she befriends the castle&rsquo;s enchanted staff and makes herself at home as she starts to learn that there may be more to the Beast than just his hideous exterior... </p><p>Although we don&rsquo;t get to see the Beast in the trailer, we do get to <em>hear</em> two of our other favourite characters, the candlestick Lumiere and the clock Cogsworth, played by Ewan McGregor and Ian McKellen respectively, as they discuss our heroine&rsquo;s arrival to the castle. Of course, Watson, McKellen and McGregor are just some of the star-studded cast set to make up the new film, including but not limited to: Dan Stevens as the Beast, Luke Evans as Gaston, Emma Thompson as Mrs Potts, Josh Gad as Le Fou and Kevin Kline as Belle's father.</p><p>Just check out this star studded picture the cast shared from the set:</p><blockquote class="instagram-media" data-instgrm-captioned data-instgrm-version="7" style=" background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:658px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);"><div style="padding:8px;"><div style=" background:#F8F8F8; line-height:0; margin-top:40px; padding:50% 0; text-align:center; width:100%;"><div style=" background:url(data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAACwAAAAsCAMAAAApWqozAAAABGdBTUEAALGPC/xhBQAAAAFzUkdCAK7OHOkAAAAMUExURczMzPf399fX1+bm5mzY9AMAAADiSURBVDjLvZXbEsMgCES5/P8/t9FuRVCRmU73JWlzosgSIIZURCjo/ad+EQJJB4Hv8BFt+IDpQoCx1wjOSBFhh2XssxEIYn3ulI/6MNReE07UIWJEv8UEOWDS88LY97kqyTliJKKtuYBbruAyVh5wOHiXmpi5we58Ek028czwyuQdLKPG1Bkb4NnM+VeAnfHqn1k4+GPT6uGQcvu2h2OVuIf/gWUFyy8OWEpdyZSa3aVCqpVoVvzZZ2VTnn2wU8qzVjDDetO90GSy9mVLqtgYSy231MxrY6I2gGqjrTY0L8fxCxfCBbhWrsYYAAAAAElFTkSuQmCC); display:block; height:44px; margin:0 auto -44px; position:relative; top:-22px; width:44px;"> </div></div><p style=" margin:8px 0 0 0; padding:0 4px;"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/1dzUfljvmK/" style=" color:#000; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; font-style:normal; font-weight:normal; line-height:17px; text-decoration:none; word-wrap:break-word;" target="_blank">Can't wait for you to be our guest.</a></p><p style=" color:#c9c8cd; font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px; margin-bottom:0; margin-top:8px; overflow:hidden; padding:8px 0 7px; text-align:center; text-overflow:ellipsis; white-space:nowrap;">A photo posted by Josh Gad (@joshgad) on <time datetime="2015-04-14T18:37:20+00:00" style=" font-family:Arial,sans-serif; font-size:14px; line-height:17px;">Apr 14, 2015 at 11:37am PDT</time></p></div></blockquote><script async defer src="//platform.instagram.com/en_US/embeds.js"></script><p>We don&rsquo;t know about you, but we are super excited for the next glimpse we get into Belle&rsquo;s world.</p><p>Beauty and the Beast opens in cinemas 17th March, 2017.
