The fact that it is so good when it’s good it’s also kind of the reason of why it is so bad when it’s bad. Does that make any sense? And… it can all suddenly be over tomorrow but I’m still insanely happy that I have met him.

First look at Disney and Bill Condon’s live action take on Beauty and the Beast, led by Emma Watson and Dan Stevens, scheduled to open in theaters in March.
Co-starring are Luke Evans as Gaston, Ewan McGregor as Lumiere, Ian McKellen as Cogsworth, Emma Thompson as Mrs. Potts, Josh Gad as Le Fou, Gugu Mbatha-Raw as Plumette, Stanley Tucci as Maestro Cadenza, Kevin Kline as Maurice, Audra McDonald as Madame Garderobe, and Hattie Morahan as Agathe.
Dan Stevens
Like Craig when he was cast, this 33-year-old Brit has already made a small name for himself — but Bond would take him to the next level. Stevens proved to be a scene-stealer as ill-fated Matthew Crawley in “Downton Abbey,” is a classically-trained Shakespearean, and has a high-profile role on the horizon opposite Emma Watson in the live-action remake of “Beauty and the Beast.” Hey, come to think of it — wouldn’t Watson make an awesome Bond girl?
What his Bond would be like: Formal like Timothy Dalton, but in a 2016 context. We’re thinking a “fish out of water” vibe, but someone who is a defiant original.
The deal was part of a trio of sales made by FilmNation to Linmon. The Chinese company also has acquired Michael Grandage’s Genius, starring Colin Firth, Jude Law and Nicole Kidman, and forthcoming sci-fi Redivider, starring Dan Stevens and directed by Tim Smit.

Skylar Gaertner, “The Ticket”
Gaertner should look pretty familiar to plenty of audiences now, thanks to turns on “Nurse Jackie,” “The Americans” and “Daredevil” and roles in films like “Alex of Venice” and “Sleeping with Other People,” but his part in Ido Fluk’s new drama might be his deepest and darkest yet.
The film centers on a blind man (Dan Stevens) who suddenly regains his sight, a dream scenario with some terrible outcomes. Gaertner plays Stevens’ son in the film, which should afford him plenty of room to flex some dramatic chops in a haunting story.
