Beauty and the Beast | Voice Actors | Behind the Scenes | Side By Side Comparison

[@ElenaAndreopoulos-md3wr]

This was so wonderful to watch. I got especially watching Jerry Orbach. Jerry was a good family friend.. he was our neighbor and he was so incredibly kind. I remember when I was 6, Shrek came out and my parents didn’t have time to take me to see it. I was really sad and Jerry said he had it on tape, since he had to review it for an awards ceremony, so he and his wife had me over just to see it and I was so happy. He was such a thoughtful, caring, and fun person. We eventually moved to another part of the city and Jerry passed a way a few years later.. The most heartwarming thing to see now is that they renamed the street where our apartment was, where he lived, “Jerry Orbach Way” ❤️

[@Carrionangel8911]

He was always my favorite character on Law and Order. When I found out he voiced Lumiere it made me smile big time. I’m sorry for the pain his loss has brought you, but be comforted to know he brought joy to so many people. ❤

He was the lyricist for this movie, "The Little Mermaid," and for some of the songs in "Aladdin." He never got to see "Beauty and the Beast" in its final form because he died at age 40 of AIDS months before the movie's release, but if not for him, this movie wouldn't be as amazing as it is.

My All Time Favourite Disney Film.

[@darwinapala960]

Beyond Classic...what a master piece!!! We have lost so much great talent the last several years... RIP

[@yuantheblue]

So bittersweet! Good childhood memories tempered with the loss of those well loved by fans. It will never been the same without Angela Lansbury and the others mentioned here.

That last part made me emotional 🥹

[@Craze961]

The trio is back together again, just in heaven

[@VW613]

Robby is SO perfect. All the rest just as brilliant. And yes, crying too...💞💞💞

R.I.P Jerry Orbach, David Ogden Stiers and Angela Lansbury my favorite characters who give a beautiful Voice of Disney beauty and the beast 1991 🥺😍😭😭🙏🌹🌹🎶👑👑😘😘😭

I mean Gaston's voice gives me chills whenever I hear him since. His voice is just so manly, with so much bravado. Just so strong and powerful, I wish I could articulate the feeling better. The life action remake has nothing on him, his voice is so puny in comparison.

[@jordanluenz9263]

I get the same feeling about Christopher Lee.

Angela Lansberry as Mrs Potts singing Beauty and the Beast is m favorite childhood memory I remember the clearest I was I love with this damn movie as a child the dancing furniture and cutlery just drew me in

[@malinhessedahl]

I love all three movies of Beauty and the beast from 90s💕💕

[@amethystjess18]

This is awesome! 1st time seeing what "Gaston" looks like and he was born for the part! Thank you for posting it all side by side😊

For those wondering what storybook she is reading, based on her description, you can take it two ways. Either foreshadowing her own, or indeed as an Easter Egg to "Aladdin", which was the next in production. "Here's where she meets Prince Charming, but she won't discover that it's him till Chapter 3 (Act 3). To three great actors I grew up watching in multiple roles. RIP and in loving Memory indeed. Jerry, who much like Lumiere, ignited every role, from a detective, to a candlestick. For life is certainly a journey and "a balloon that tumbles or rises, depending on what is inside." *spoiler alert* Looking back, I'm actually glad they had Angela as the balloon lady in "Mary Poppins Returns", as it served as a nice connection to David Tomlinson, even if it was different movies. As Mrs Potts, she was such a great maternal figure. As for David Ogden Stiers, from an orderly clock/coachman to a pompous Doctor with compassion underneath, evil or not, he was certainly a Genius indeed.

There are others that fit as well, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and Snow White.

[@pennyparham4123]

Could not have gotten better celebrities to do this. Well done. R.I.P., James Orbach, Dame Angela and David.

[@sarahmoorman6936]

Never knew about Jerry Orbach! What a multi-talented man! Unbelievable!

[@sashaflip7450]

I’m in tears. This has been my favorite Disney movie since I was 10 and now almost 40 it brings back so many beautiful memories.

[@EpicJoshua314]

RIP Angela Lansbury 1925-2022

[@moviemelody2210]

This is one of my favorite movies of all time, thanks for sharing!

[@UnbelievableSeries]

Not to be inappropriate but GODDAMN!!! I knew the Beast’ VA just sounded hot & to see that clip of him doing the “GET OUT!” roar on GMA just made me swoon & thank little old 6 year old me for always saying Beauty & the Beast has ALWAYS been my fav Disney film.

[@detectivebrown6211]

Hey no shame 😏 The beast is hot and I'm glad to find out his VA is too. That's actually why I clicked in the first place 😆

[@AKABHAN]

That "Good night, Love." voice makes me cry again... so beautiful.

[@hornchen628]

The concert with Angela at the end is so beautiful. Can I see a full version of this concert?

[@lohphat]

Well, here's the original footage. It's from Salt Lake City, not Royal Albert Hall. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aYLEdnucpruoipY

[@hornchen628]

Thank you 🤗🤗🤗

[@hornchen628]

Holy… this Choir with Angela 🥹🥹😭 soooo amazing

[@samanthablakeney7153]

You might also enjoy a performance Angela Lansbury did at a big Disney convention …D3 ( not sure of the name of it). Alan Menken accompanies her on piano and when she walks out the audience goes nuts. It is a lovely performance and perhaps a bit more intimate with her singing with piano.
