Beauty & The Beast Live-Action TV Musical Set For Holiday Season
Beauty and the Beast will be getting a live musical special at ABC in time for the holiday season. The classic Disney animated film, which was co-directed by Gary Trousdale and Kirk Wise, made history when it debuted in 1991. In addition to an impressive haul of $331 million at the worldwide box office, Beauty and The Beast garnered the distinction of being the first animated movie to receive a nomination for Best Picture at the Academy Awards. Now, timed for the 30th anniversary of that game-changing nomination, viewers can look forward to a celebration of the seminal title.
