I keep forgetting about March’s packed movie slate. There’s Logan (March 3rd), Kong: Skull Island (March 10th), the Tarantino-esque shoot-em-up Free Fire (March 17th), the James Gunn-penned “Hunger Games in an office building” The Belko Experiment (also March 17th), the CHiPs remake and a new Power Rangers (March 24th), Ghost in the Shell (March 31st), and, of course, Disney’s live-action Beauty and the Beast. Phew!

We’ll be getting final trailers for these films as we get closer to the month, and next on the docket is the tale as old as time. A new Beauty and the Beast trailer will arrive this Monday, and the Mouse House dropped a batch of motion posters for the A-list cast in anticipation.

First up is Ian McKellen’s Cogsworth in both his human form and post-transformation into an enchanted clock. Luke Evans’ Gaston also gets his own poster spotlight, followed by Emma Watson as Belle.

Directed by Bill Condon, Beauty and the Beast is a music-infused adaptation of the animated film, scheduled for release on March 17th.

Here’s the official plot synopsis:

“Beauty and the Beast” is the fantastic journey of Belle, a bright, beautiful and independent young woman who is taken prisoner by a beast in his castle. Despite her fears, she befriends the castle’s enchanted staff and learns to look beyond the Beast’s hideous exterior and realize the kind heart and soul of the true Prince within.
