You Can't Unsee The Hilariously Awful Beauty And The Beast CGI Suit

How did Emma Watson keep a straight face?

You won't have seen The Beauty and the Beast like this before.

The remake of the Disney cartoon was released in 2017, but now fans are getting a new insight into how the animated characters are brought onto screens. While it is obvious that a lot of special effects are needed to bring the Beast to life, social media has provided a little insight into how it was done.

Apart from the amazing skill of the special effects and post-production teams, the work of the leading actors has been praised by people on the internet. Between Dan Steven's ability to act properly while wearing an over-sized CGI suit and Emma Watson keeping a serious face while dancing with him, there is a lot to applaud.

Beauty and the Beast made nearly $500 Million worldwide after its second week in cinemas. Just as well, it cost over $160 million to make.

Take a look at some of the behind-the-scenes clips.
