If two is good, three must be better. Or maybe someone should tell Hollywood that enough is enough…
A third Beauty and the Beast is headed our way. Two rebooted TV shows are in development and now comes word that a new movie version of the classic fairy tale is in the works.
Silent Hill director Christophe Gans is launching a new big screen version.
The news broke during the Berlin Film Festival.
Gans—who you also might remember for his acclaimed Brotherhood of the Wolf—is teaming with production companies Eskwad and Pathe for the project. To star he’s tapped Vincent Cassel (who you might best remember as Black Swan‘s ballet director and Ocean’s Twelve‘s Night Fox) and Lea Seydoux (a promising young French actress whose American credits include roles in Midnight in Paris and Robin Hood).
The film could shoot as early as October, which means a likely 2013 release that will include international distribution.
