Beauty and the Beast film to lead to revival? — Page 2

JennH said: "Oh that isn't even speculated anymore, they ARE doing it. DCL announced officially themselves about a month or so ago. But I guessed it before that, I mean look at that breakdown lolz! I figured it was something at the VERY least centered around B and B. I would guess that the DCL has a possibility to be more like the new film, considering that they wanted an Audra type for the wardrobe, but they could just be a description of the character. Doesn't automatically mean it'll be molded to be like the new film. "

Oops... once again I think I wasn't clear... sorry! Yes, they are definitely doing an updated cruise version of B&B (that's what my friends were called back for) but they said it was stated or implied at the callback that they were working toward a Broadway revival. Though of course even if that's true it doesn't mean it will ever actually happen.

I'm very curious to hear if people think there is revival potential after seeing the new film. I really hope the film is as good as the trailers seem, as I can imagine a darker and more adult B&B musical appealing to an older audience, but have no idea if that is something Disney has an interest in. It seems like a show I'd love to see, though, as I adore both the music and story, but the cartoonish aspects not so much at this phase in my life.
