- Here is a section of the impromptu performance of the title song to Beauty and the Beast, sung by Emma Thompson during the cast table-read for Disney's 2017 live-action remake. The song was written for the original 1991 animated film by composer Alan Menken and lyricist Howard Ashman.
This clip comes from the Enchanted Table-Read featurette present on the film's upcoming Blu-Ray release.
A way for the cast, director, and creatives, as well as financiers and executives, to get a feel for how the script reads and how the film is coming together, a table-read (also known as a read-through) is usually treated as a simple cold reading of the script, with no staging and with the cast reading their lines with no rehearsal or preparation. However, because of the musical nature of the project, as well as the inexperience of stars Emma Watson and Dan Stevens in the genre, the decision was made to hire an ensemble of dancers and singers to perform the large set pieces of the score, including "Be Our Guest," "Gaston," and the title song, to better illustrate what the creatives had in mind. (Rehearsal had already begun on the choreography of the numbers, with cast member Luke Evans taking part in "Gaston.") Though unusual, the technique has been used for film musical table-reads in the past, namely by Adam Shankman for the table-read for his 2007 film musical adaptation of Hairspray. (Coincidentally, the two films share the same music supervisor, Matthew Rush Sullivan.)
Though a pair of dancers had been assigned to perform the Beast and Belle's waltz during the title song, Emma Watson surprised the rest of the cast and crew by standing up to perform Belle's part in the waltz herself. Similarly, though a professional singer had been hired to make sure the song's presentation went off without a hitch, Emma Thompson unexpectedly rose and walked over to the microphone to sing herself.
The moment has been described as a career highlight by various members of the cast and crew, with producer Todd Lieberman stating in an interview with Variety that the resulting performance caused composer Alan Menken to break into tears.
Despite so many people saying they didn't like her as Belle. She did a great job playing the part in my opinion.
I couldn't be more agree with you. She's a good actress no matter what role she plays
I mean who cares...it's Emma Watson man
She is good as belle. But I can't deny her singing did not really deliver
Agree! Some people are idiots.
I couldn't imagine a better belle ❤
Trust Emma to bring the magic.
skybluevanillacream I think you mean EmmaS ;)
Callum both Emma's
Professor Trelawney and Hermione Granger.
You know thats good casting when she nails the song on the first try
assyrianprincess I
Just like Angela Lansbury did in the original!
I didn’t know Emma Thompson could sing before this movie, and I fell in love with her voice. I wanna hear more ❤️
Btw, Emma Thompson is the singer, Emma Watson is Beauty...
Emma Thompson could sing very well. Her voice is very nice !!!
She sang in Brave as Queen Elinor. She has a very nice voice in that, too!
I know this was some time ago but if you're still interested, Emma T. did a wonderful performance as Mrs Lovett in Sweeney Todd (Lincoln Center 2014). The full version was on youtube the last time I looked, hope it's still there. It's my favourite version because of her great voice and comic ability - she's hilarious.
@@OliveNLuv She sang in the Children Act. Beautiful
Emma Thompson is a legend
I love Emma's dress!! And her too!! Her personality, her determination for what she think is right, like really some people don't even dare to speak out what they have on their minds. And that truly is what I respect and admire her the most. Really she is a great role model!!
Emma is so perfect, smart, beautiful and talented woman ever
Emma T. ..Man, she's amazing. First go and all, now that's a good actor. Em W. danced beautifully too. ❤️
The movie's absolutely stunning. A bit autotune but amazing nonetheless. I called Emma 'Hermione' throughout the movie 😂😂. And it saddens me that the next generation will know Her as Belle rather than Hermione.
I didn't grow up with Harry Potter, so I prefer her as Belle.
Me too because I loved Harry Potter and I saw her as meg when I saw little women the first time I said there’s hermione and belle.
Welp time to watch Harry Potter again... preparing to cry
I love the Beast feet the dancing instructor is wearing.
Yes. The feet are meant to make guys taller, but i think Dan Stevens had slightly taller bouncing stilts. This dancing instructor one, the heel doesn't touch the ground. like an animals.
This dude in these giant boots is stepping and twirling around the floor much more sophisticatedly than most guys even without the boots. :D
Dammit I would've loved for it to be Dan dancing with Emma here!!!
Same, 'cause then I would've been wishing it was me dancing with him in her place.
dan wasn't dancing with her in the movie
@@rastamouse3624 yes he was...go watch behind the scenes
Her voice make me cry ...her voice touch my heart..
(Sorry my bad english)
WOW I love the woman who singing the song she's so talented
Kendra Atkins It's Emma Thompson (actress)

Angela Lansburry would be so proud of Emma Thompson for have played Mrs. Potts in the live action of The Beauty and The Beast especially for her singing voice ❤🥹🥺😥😢😭🤧🙏🏻🕯✝️🕎⛪️⚰️
This is one of the better remakes from Disney. I felt they did a great job with it.
The piano music is so beautiful!

I almost cried, it was so beautiful
Beautiful
1:01-1:09 What I wouldn't give to be in her place.
I know
The dance instructor is lucky🍀
Even though I wish Emma had tried to look like she was actually in love with Beast when they filmed it, I love this dance so much! I hope to be able to do at my own wedding some day!
Emma W. gracefully waltzing!! Lovely lovely!!
i had no idea
i bet it was the dance instructor. beautifully done
I cried Emma tompson is the best ever she’s my idol
this just makes me realize how short Emma Watson really is XD
Mikayla Mitchell if you look close, the guy dancing with her is wearing some weird kind of boots to look like the Beast's legs, so it makes him look even taller while Emma is wearing flats :)
however, I did look closer, and I see that it looks as if he is wearing real shoes. and the weird "boots" are just a "cover" to go over the legs and shoes. the weird angle of the "covers" could just be there to give it a look at the beasts legs. i dont know if youre right or i am. but these are both theories. :)
Carli Matt Harris is 6’5 so I’m confident he’s not wearing anything to make himself look taller 😂
@@mikaylamitchell2567 he is wearing stilts ... The same dan wears during the ball scene
Goosebumps.
You can just feel the magic erupt from nothing.
