Talk about thrilling!
Here we have a 20-second teaser for CBS Films’ modern take on “Beauty and the Beast”, BEASTLY. I really have nothing to say about the teaser, other than don’t blink during it, because you’ll miss about half of the thing.
Kyle Kingson (Alex Pettyfer) has it all — looks, intelligence, wealth and opportunity — and a wicked cruel streak. Prone to mocking and humiliating “aggressively unattractive” classmates, he zeroes in on Goth classmate Kendra, inviting her to the school’s extravagant environmental bash. Kendra accepts, and, true to form, Kyle blows her off in a particularly savage fashion. She retaliates by casting a spell that physically transforms him into everything he despises. Enraged by his horrible and unrecognizable appearance he confronts Kendra and learns that the only solution to the curse is to find someone that will love him as he is — a task he considers impossible.
BEASTLY stars Alex Pettyfer, Peter Krause, Neil Patrick Harris, Mary-Kate Olsen, and Vanessa Hudgens (pictured below). It hits theaters in JULY 2010.
