The cast for the live-action rendition of the Disney classic ‘Beauty and the Beast' is rounding off with new additions Ewan McGregor and Stanley Tucci.
Tucci will be playing new character Cadenza the grand piano who is described as a neurotic maestro, says Variety.
The Hollywood Reporter has also learned that McGregor is in final negotiations to play the suave candelabra Lumiere, gearing him up for the major solo "Be Our Guest."
The all-star cast also includes Emma Watson as Belle, Dan Stevens as the Beast/Prince, Luke Evans as the villain Gaston, Josh Gad as Le Fou, Ian McKellen as Cogsworth and Audra McDonald as Garderobe.
Production will start later this year and is slated for a March 17, 2017 release.
