'Beauty & the Beast' Movie Casting: Fans Want Tom Felton for Beast Role Opposite Emma Watson [PHOTOS]
Emma Watson's film, "Bling Ring" isn't the only movie Watson fans are looking forward to. Another movie that is set to star the lovely British actress is the remake of the Disney classic, "Beauty & the Beast" to be directed by Guillermo Del Toro. The movie is set to be filmed this spring but news has it that there hasn't been a Beast cast yet. Would Tom Felton be the perfect actor to play opposite Emma in this role?
Fans of the famous "Harry Potter" franchise seem to agree that Hermione Granger of Gryffindor would bode well with Draco Malfoy of Slytherin. Apart from this fictional pairing, some "Potterheads" agree that Emma Watson and Tom Felton would make a perfect couple.
While such a pairing wouldn't happen in real life given these actors' separate love lives, there could be a chance for Emma and Tom to pair up. Online suggestions state Tom Felton should be given the part of Beast opposite Emma Watson who would play Belle in the film remake of "Beauty & the Beast."
The classic tale will be given a "darker spin" all thanks to brilliant mind of Guillermo Del Toro. Of course, here come fans of the "Harry Potter" franchise claiming that Tom Felton would certainly give the film a "dark twist" with him cast in the film as Beast.
Online petitions have been up on the web in an attempt to have Tom Felton try out for the role of Beast. With spring rolling close by, Guillermo Del Toro would have to find an actor to star opposite Emma Watson in the film. Could Tom Felton be the guy Del Toro has been searching for?
"Dramione" & "Feltson" fans would definitely agree to this pairing but what would Emma and Tom's real life partners have to say to this. Check out the slideshow to see more of Tom Felton and see if he does fit the part of the arrogant Beast.
