Disney releases 'Beauty and the Beast' character posters that come to life

The live-action remake of Beauty and the Beast is quickly approaching, and new posters reveal a glimpse at how each of the beloved characters will look.

The tale may be old as time, but these character posters are distinctly modern. In addition to the still images, Disney released magical-looking "motion" posters.

Watch the motion poster for each character come to life below.

Beauty and the Beast, starring Emma Watson and Dan Stevens, hits theaters on March 17.
