Are you singing “Tale As Old As Time” yet?

In just a few days it will be time to warm up your vocal cords for the “Beauty and the Beast” Live Special. The special features H.E.R. as Belle with Josh Groban as the Beast and we’ve already gotten our first look at the cast! This week, we got another behind-the-scenes look but this time at the special guest stars.
This week D23: The Official Disney Fan Club announced that we will see some familiar faces on December 15th when the live special airs! The first of these special guest stars is Paige O’Hara, who voiced Belle in the animated classic.

For this rendition of the story, O’Hara will be playing a librarian who Belle will no doubt love. Pictured above is the first glimpse of O’Hara and H.E.R. in the special. Next, fans will be excited to know that Richard White will also be in the special!

Richard White previously voiced Gaston in the 1991 movie. Fans will be excited to know he has a much nicer role this time around as he will be playing a baker. Finally, Alan Menken, composer of the original film and a Disney Legend, will be making a cameo!

O’Hara, White, and Menken will all be in the “Belle” scene at the beginning of the special. We are super excited to see some familiar faces and we’re warming up our vocal cords as we speak! And, if you’re looking to dress like some of these characters on your next trip to Disney, check out this outfit below.
