Disney is reportedly moving forward with plans to produce an entire live-action film based on Beauty and the Beast's breakout villain, Gaston, as previously reported by Variety.
Due to the project still being in early development, little is known about the planned film, including key details like who might star in it or who exactly the director might end up being.
The only significant piece of information we do know is that the film is currently being by David Callaham, whose co-writing credits range from Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire to Shang Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings.
The project will, of course, be based around the hit 1991 animated film, Beauty and the Beast, as well as its live-action musical adaptation from 2017. Based on the beloved French fairy tale, both versions of the story follow a lonely young woman named Belle who becomes the unlikely captive of an enigmatic, beast-like prince.
Only as Belle spends more and more time with her captor is she able to look beyond his gruff outward appearance, paving the way to a romantic connection neither imagined possible.
Among the most popular Disney films ever made, Beauty and the Beast also became well-known for introducing such figures as Gaston to mainstream audiences the world over.
A humorous subversion of the classic Prince Charming-type leads that typically starred in Disney's animated films, the character is portrayed as a brawny, braggadocios narcissist who attempts to claim Belle as his wife, by any means necessary.
Previously, the character was voiced by Richard White in the animated film, while Luke Evans played Gaston in the 2017 live-action version of Beauty of the Beast. Given the fact that Disney is currently attempting to produce a fresh-take on the character, it's more than likely neither actor will reprise their role in the upcoming spinoff.
