Emma Watson Enters An Enchanted World In This New Academy Awards TV Spot For BEAUTY AND THE BEAST
An enchanting new TV spot for Disney's Beauty and the Beast was released last night during the 89th Academy Awards, featuring some new footage of Emma Watson as Belle. Come take a look!
It's not even March and Beauty and the Beast is already tracking for a gargantuan $100-120 million opening weekend in the U.S., which is a fantastic start to a film that is expected to dominate the box office deep into spring.
With a potential $120 million domestic opening weekend, it would become the third highest March opener ever and Disney's biggest March release. Some early estimates even predict that the film has an outside shot at claiming the top opening weekend in March, topping last year's Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, which opened to a monstrous $166 million.
Advance tickets sales have been very good, performing very similarly to numerous superhero blockbusters, and while the demographic is leaning female, it's starting to look more and more like the film will perform very well amongst all audiences. Early buzz from exhibitors, who have already seen the film, is also exceedingly positive.
Check out the latest TV spot, which features more of Emma Watson's Belle and Dan Stevens' Beast, below:
Disney’s “Beauty and the Beast” is a live-action re-telling of the studio’s animated classic which refashions the classic characters from the tale as old as time for a contemporary audience, staying true to the original music while updating the score with several new songs. “Beauty and the Beast” is the fantastic journey of Belle, a bright, beautiful and independent young woman who is taken prisoner by a beast in his castle.
