Disney unveils the iconic rose in new teaser poster of 'Beauty and the Beast'

Emma Watson unveiled the teaser poster of Disney's Live action movie Beauty and the Beast on Thursday.

The poster features the enchanted rose which serves as the time limit until the Beast's 21st birthday as the flower will wither and the last petal will fall. A deadline, if you will, for him to find true love.

Earlier, the teaser trailer gave us a glimpse of Belle played by Emma Watson, who is coming back to the magical universe after Harry Potter. We also got the voiceovers from Sir Ian McKellen as Cogsworth and Ewan McGregor as Lumiere.

Directed by Bill Condon of Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 1 & 2 and Dreamgirls, the movie also features Emma Thompson as Mrs. Potts, Luke Evans as Gaston, and Dan Stevens of Downton Abbey as the Beast. Stanley Tucci, Audra Macdonald, Josh Gad, and Kelvin Kline will also portray pivotal roles.

Releasing on March 17, 2017, Beauty and the Beast will feature original songs re-recorded by Oscar-winning composer Alan Menken with Tim Rice.

Starting with Cinderella and The Jungle Book, this is the third animation film made into a live action movie by Disney.
