Shania joins cast of "Beauty and the Beast" 30th Anniversary TV special - December 15


Martin Short and Shania Twain in Final Talks to Join ‘Beauty and the Beast’ TV Special (EXCLUSIVE)

By Marc Malkin | Variety | September 22, 2022 

https://variety.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/martin-short-shania-twain.jpg?w=681&h=383&crop=1&resize=450%2C253

Martin Short and Shania Twain are in final talks to join ABC’s “Beauty and the Beast” special.

Sources tell Variety that Short would play Lumière while Twain will take on the role of Mrs. Potts in “Beauty and the Beast: A 30th Celebration.”

The news comes just days after Variety exclusively reported that David Alan Grier will play the role of Cogsworth in the production. Previously announced cast members include Oscar winner H.E.R. as Belle, Grammy winner Josh Groban as Beast and Joshua Henry as Gaston. EGOT legend Rita Moreno will serve as the show’s narrator in the live-action/animated hybrid production.

The Hamish Hamilton-directed special will be filmed live and feature never-before-seen musical performances. Jamal Sims is serving as executive producer and choreographer. Set design is by Julio Himede with costumes by Marina Toybina (“The Masked Singer”).

Jon M. Chu is executive producing the special, which is being produced by Done+Dusted in association with Walt Disney Television Alternative and Electric Somewhere.

The special will premiere Dec. 15 on ABC and stream on Disney+ the next day. 

The original 1991 Disney film was the first animated movie to be nominated for a best picture Oscar. It took home Academy Awards for original score and original song. Alan Menken and the late Howard Ashman wrote the film’s songs. The movie was dedicated to Ashman after he died of AIDS-related illnesses six months before the feature’s release.

A live-action adaptation, directed by Bill Condon and starring Emma Watson, Dan Stevens, Luke Evans, Josh Gad, Ewan McGregor and Emma Thompson, was released in 2017.

I am unbelievably honoured... and excited... and all of the emotions(!!) to announce that I will be joining the cast of #BeautyAndTheBeast30th to play the part of my favourite character - Mrs. Potts! And of course, I would be remiss if I didn't pay tribute to the iconic Angela Lansbury, I mean she IS Mrs. Potts and the reason why this character is so beloved. To follow in the foot steps of such an icon is a huge honour and I hope to do the part justice ❤️ Airing December 15 on @ABCNetwork.

ABC’s ‘Beauty and the Beast’ Special Adds Martin Short, David Alan Grier, Shania Twain

The live event will also feature Rizwan Manji, Jon Jon Briones and Leo Abelo Perry.

By Rick Porter | The Hollywood Reporter | October 17, 2002

ABC is rounding out the cast of its live Beauty and the Beast special.

The Dec. 15 special, celebrating the 30th anniversary of the film’s best picture nomination — the first animated feature to earn that honor — has added Martin Short, David Alan Grier, Shania Twain, Rizwan Manji, Jon Jon Briones and Leo Abelo Perry to its cast. They join an ensemble led by Grammy winner H.E.R. as Belle and Josh Groban as the Beast; Joshua Henry also stars, and Rita Moreno will narrate the special. 

Only Murders in the Building star Short will play Lumiere. Tony winner Grier (A Solider’s Play, The Patient) will play Cogsworth, while Grammy winner and country music star Twain will play Mrs. Potts and Perry her son, Chip. Manji (Schitt’s Creek) plays Gaston’s (Henry) sidekick, LeFou, and Briones (Ratched) will play Belle’s father, Maurice.

The special, which ABC ordered in July, will feature a mix of live action and animation and new musical performances along with sets and costumes inspired by the movie. Jon M. Chu (In the Heights, Wicked) is executive producing, and Grammys and Super Bowl halftime show helmer Hamish Hamilton will direct.

Done + Dusted is producing the special with Walt Disney Television Alternative and Electric Somewhere. Caitlin Foito, Hamilton, Raj Kapoor, Richard Kraft and Katy Mullan also executive produce. H.E.R. serves as producer.

So apparently the special won't be AIRING live. Instead it will be RECORDED live over several days later this month in Burbank, California.

To apply for tickets:

WHAT IS THE AUDIENCE EXPERIENCE? If selected, you will be a part of a few performances taped each day. Because the performances are recorded over several days, you will not see all performances nor the original animated film. Our shooting format is block and shoot, so there will be quite a bit of waiting / downtime in between scenes.

There is something there!

Back in the seat of creativity with a legacy "Beauty and The Beast"

We have been mad at work for months to get to this day.... our first big session, choir and the next 3 days, my first time in person for orchestra dates.

With the most amazing, committed and enchanted cast and team, we have burned the candle, tested our wits and knowledge with what is, again a never before interpretation of this beloved classic.

Lots of unknown journey ahead to get to air date, but having the best days ever!

December 15th ABC

The song that Shania sings on Beauty and the beast does that get released as a single/promotion to promote the movie? I have seen many artists release songs that way in the past. Unsure how that works. Anyone know? It is a movie correct not a live stage production

It's a recorded live stage and animated production.

Shania Twain Wears A Literal Teapot In ‘Beauty & The Beast’ Special: See Her Mrs. Potts Costume

Tale as old as time! Shania Twain dazzles as Mrs. Potts in the 'Beauty and the Beast' TV special. See her transformation into the beloved teapot!

By Avery Thompson | Hollywood Life | December 7, 2022 

ABC is celebrating the 30th anniversary of Beauty and the Beast with an epic TV spectacle featuring some of Hollywood’s most incredible stars. Music legend Shania Twain will be playing the role of Mrs. Potts in the TV special. She does a complete transformation to play the wise teapot.

https://hollywoodlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/beauty-and-the-beast-live-embed1.jpg

Shania’s Mrs. Potts costume is the definition of extravagant. Part of Shania’s skirt is shaped like an actual teapot, with a spout and everything. The teapot is purple and white with stunning gold detailing. Beneath the teapot is a purple and gold skirt.

The upper portion of the costume is a fitted bodice in a gorgeous light blue hue with gold embellishments. She tops her Mrs. Potts costume off with a purple and gold hat. Shania is rocking blonde hair for her special with purple highlights.

Mrs. Potts’ adorable son Chip is played by Lea Abelo Perry. He has a teacup costume as well. They are part of the amazing ensemble cast that includes H.E.R. as Belle, Josh Groban as The Beast, Martin Short as Lumiere, David Alan Grier as Cogsworth, and more.

The role of Mrs. Potts was originated by the late Angela Lansbury in the 1991 Disney animated movie Beauty and the Beast. In addition to voicing the role of Mrs. Potts, Angela performed the title song, which won the Academy Award for Best Original Song. Emma Thompson played Mrs. Potts in the 2017 live-action movie.

https://hollywoodlife.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/12/beauty-and-the-beast-live-embed2.jpg

When ABC announced that she had been cast as Mrs. Potts, the country singer took to Instagram to celebrate. “I am unbelievably honoured… and excited… and all of the emotions(!!) to announce that I will be joining the cast of #BeautyAndTheBeast30th to play the part of my favourite character – Mrs. Potts,” she wrote. “And of course, I would be remiss if I didn’t pay tribute to the iconic Angela Lansbury, I mean she IS Mrs. Potts and the reason why this character is so beloved. To follow in the foot steps of such an icon is a huge honour and I hope to do the part justice.”

Beauty and the Beast: A 30th Celebration will feature live-action performances woven into an airing of the animated film. The special will air December 15 at 8 p.m. on ABC.

That task of bringing something new while honoring something old was perhaps most challenging for Shania Twain, as her new take on Mrs. Potts comes only a few months after the actress behind the original voice performance, Angela Lansbury, died. "I was only more honored to be asked to play that role," she says of having to fill Lansbury's spout. "It made singing the theme song very emotional for me. But Alan Menken was on stage with me playing the piano, and that comforted me a great deal. It was such an epic moment in my career to perform his own song with him there next to me. It was important to me to play the role with style and grace. A sense of humor, inspired by Angela's charm. I kept Angela in mind the whole time."

Wow! This is best she has sounded in nearly 20 years since the beginning of the Up! tour. Her recent performances have been so good.

Audio from this performance is on streaming services! Found it on my Amazon music!

I can’t get over how well she sounded!

She definitely sounded fantastic. I was hoping we would have gotten to see her act a little bit like H.E.R. and even Martin Short but the performances were incredible. And the tribute to Angela Lansbury was nicely done.

Tommy, do you think this was a live performance, or lip sync? I can’t tell! It’s so real!

They probably sang "live" onstage but then there is post-production audio editing for TV.

 My guess is that it is live but enhanced with autotune in post production.

Shania Twain @ShaniaTwain

To perform alongside @AIMenken was a huge honour. Alan produced Angela Lansbury's original 'Beauty and the Beast' and to follow in the foot steps of such an icon is a memory I will cherish forever. I hope I did it justice! 💜 #BeautyAndTheBeast30th @disneyplus @abcnetwork
