The soundtrack for the film is expected to come out by March 10, but fans are certain that Disney will be dropping teasers for the new songs in the coming weeks.
The theme song was originally sung by Celine Dion and Peabo Bryson for the 1991 animated film’s soundtrack. It was also sung by Angela Lansbury, who plays Mrs. Potts in the movie.
The animated Disney classic has won many awards as well as its titular theme song, including a Golden Globe and an Academy Award.
Dion will be performing a new song for the original track of the live-action adaptation called “How Does a Moment Last Forever.”
The film was confirmed to retain the film’s original songs and will not include songs from the Broadway musical. Aside from Dion’s new song, two more songs will be featured in the film, including “Evermore” to be sung by Josh Groban.
The film is among the slew of Disney’s successful live-action adaptation films following the success of 2014’s “Maleficent” top billed by Angelina Jolie and 2015’s “Cinderella” starring Lily James, and last year, “The Jungle Book.”
Disney has already announced that the plan to recreate more live-action adaptation in the future, with plans for “The Little Mermaid” already underway.
Filming for “Beauty and the Beast” began in May 2015 and concluded in August the same year. Directed by Bill Codon, the film is set for a March 17 release on global theaters.
