Watch The New Beauty And The Beast TV Trailer

With its release now just a few weeks away, Disney has published a new trailer for its upcoming live-action Beauty and the Beast. The 30-second spot aired during the Academy Awards broadcast on Sunday, and in it, Lumiere (Ewan McGregor) invites Belle (Emma Watson) to "be our guest."

The video also briefly shows a dramatic scene where Gaston (Luke Evans) pushes Beast (Dan Stevens) off the roof of his castle. Take a look:

Beauty and the Beast opens on March 17. It also stars Ian McKellan as Cogsworth, Josh Gad as LeFou, Kevin Kline as Maurice, Emma Thompson as Mrs. Potts, and Stanley Tucci as Cadenza, a character not seen in the 1991 animated movie and invented for the new version. The film is directed by Twilight's Bill Condon.

It is expected to have a huge opening in the US, where it could make as much as $120 million for its opening weekend, according to estimates. If it can cross $100 million, that would make it one of the biggest March openings in movie history. Only three movies have ever made more than $100 million for a March opening, including Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice ($166.1 million), The Hunger Games ($152.5 million), and another Disney film, Alice in Wonderland ($116.1 million).

Beauty and the Beast is just the latest live-action adaptation of a classic Disney film, following Maleficent, Cinderella, The Jungle Book, and Alice in Wonderland.
