Luke Evans Dishes on New 'Beauty & The Beast' Songs

Luke Evans is joined by co-stars Sienna Miller and Tom Hiddleston at the premiere of their movie High-Rise held during the 2015 San Sebastian Film Festival on Tuesday (September 22) in San Sebastian, Spain.

The 36-year-old actor will be playing the role of Gaston in the upcoming live-action remake of Beauty and the Beast and he recently opened up to Collider about the new songs in the film.

“I’m lucky enough to be one of the first people in the world to hear those two songs, which will become songs that children will sing, adults will sing, people in musicals will end up singing them at some point, they’ll become audition piece, they will become part of this amazing legacy of a film we already have, a story that is so ingrained in our – in my childhood memory,” Luke said.

“These two songs. They’re beautiful, they complement everything so well, but they are incredibly unique and different. And the thought and love that has gone into those two songs honor the work of the original so well. It will be a nice thing, especially for the fans, to hear these two new songs on top of what we already have,” he added.
