[@da96103]

Should have had two versions. One for midwesterns and one for non-midwesterns.

[@rubykrussg]

oh yes! please!!

Hope this will be included in the deleted scene!

Gray Leprechaun said everyone ever about a british accent

[@natalias3502]

I swear 😍😍😍

[@tiarnaellen7758]

My favourite that he's done is Fall Of Giants by Ken Follett. The accents this man has under his belt is incredible!

[@mariahramos2321]

How he can change his voice quickly is so astonishing! I'd love to see Dan read out a script with different voices.

[@athanoslee]

Mariah Ramos He did a lot of audio books.

[@danagrace8137]

Mariah Ramos Lol! Yeah, when you're an actor and do a lot of vocal practices transitioning from one accent to another, or from one vocal tone range to the other, quickly can get easy to do. It's awesome how well he can do it. I love it! :)

[@jaimiedickinson788]

He actually did quite a lot of audiobook recordings!

[@grannygumjobs8280]

Please Disney I beg of you.... please have Dan coming out of rose petals shirtless in the deleted scenes! PLEASE!!!

[@sammiew.8218]

All of our dreams would come true.

[@ffeff8353]

I knew he was good-looking and a good actor, and after the film, a great singer... but I had no idea he was so witty and full of fun. Just wonderful.

[@laurenstich1049]

Utterly charming -- the complete package.

[@TheDivayenta]

Downton Abbey?

[@butterflygirl1987]

I'm kinda glad they reshot it because coming out of Rose petals sounds super cheesy. The shirtless part would have been great though.

[@SarahB1863]

I agree, although they needed to keep the camera on the prince for a few more seconds after he turned around. You don't get a very good look at his face, and in the original animated version it's a BIG moment. In this movie they cut away too quick. I do agree that the rose petal scenario sounds OTT, but I would like to see it, so I hope it's in the deleted scenes.

[@EricAriel5]

He does still have roses surrounding him in the movie,just with a shirt.

[@EricAriel5]

The film is very Rose themed,The Prince refuses a rose from the Enchantress and ends up cursed,Belle had a rose rattle as a infant,she has clothes with rose prints,her father always brings her back roses every time he goes out of town,then gets inprisoned for taking one from Beasts castle for her,but he have roses surrounding him in the version we saw onscreen,just with a shirt added,thanks to prudish mom's.

[@sakurathornsickle5681]

Only thing to say is: WHERE IS THIS ALTERNATE ENDING, RELEASE IT NOW!!!!!!! hahaha

[@ab-rk1lu]

yes i need it! (for research purposes)

[@natalieloves13]

Have some moms not seen the animated movie where he transforms with pants on?! Lol what have you done, who are these mothers

[@scgtlp]

As a Midwestern woman, those people do NOT speak for the rest of us! :-P

[@natalieloves13]

I'm also from the midwest and definitely don't find people who speak like that around me haha

[@danagrace8137]

NaTaLiE343 In the animated version he also had the shirt on, but it was two times larger because he shrank in the transformation so it pretty much just showed his bare chest.

[@aaricn04]

Dana Grace in the animation the transformation he had a really torn shirt

[@isabellagrace6566]

NaTaLiE343 DAMN IT DAMN MIDWESTERN MOTHERS WITH THEIR INNOCENCE!! WE WANT HOT SHIRTLESS DAN

He has incredibly beautiful eyes

[@chloeknight3558]

His voice in any register is so dreamy!

I only disliked your comment because no one else did. The thumb was so lonely.

[@cameronfoster5838]

@@HolyAssassinX You know that thumb doesn't work right?

[@AirwrekaDoesntRead]

I'm amazed that he hasn't been scouted now to do broadway or something! His voice is absolutely incredible, especially for not having had formal training before!

[@laurenstich1049]

Actually, Airwreka, he did The Heiress on Broadway in 2012 and started previews of Hangmen in early 2019 but then COVID-19 closed down all shows. He is a huge draw for Broadway audiences -- and he absolutely LOVES Broadway. Once the pandemic is over, you can be sure he will once again be thrilled to do a Broadway show.

[@sebsandford1858]

His performance of Evermore in the movie is amazing. I can’t stop listening to my new favourite Disney song.

[@pamlegaspi]

GOD DAMMIT MIDWESTERN MOMS RUINED MY FANTASIES 😂

[@bellamoura946]

What is wrong with him being shirtless?!!!!!!!!!! It's just his chest !!! It's not like he'd be fully naked! That end would be perfect. But I like the way it ended too

[@missrichteaars5332]

They did it for Gaston too :( They didn't think the "And every last inch of me's covered with hair' bit would be family friendly.

[@samanthanyarko9166]

MissRichTeaa RS It's funny since it was appropriate enough for the animated, G rated movie

[@missrichteaars5332]

I know right? Oh well, I can always look at shirtless men elsewhere.

[@EricAriel5]

He wasn't shirtless in the animated,his shirt was ripped revealing part of his chest though.

[@galacticjewels7856]

Well he said the mothers were thinking "well if he's naked from the top down he must be naked from the bottom down" so my guess is the scene had roses covering his bottom down or something.

[@orbarel3435]

He is so GORGEOUS 😍💙😍💙😍💙

[@wiinterflowers4277]

That's David from Legion!

[@beneddiected]

Oh my god! I JUST REALIZED!! Thank you!!!

[@AngelofMusic04]

See him in "The Guest". He's incendiary.

[@janejohnstone5795]

He is so polite and well mannered. Just like his character in Downtown Abbey.

[@igneo.s4554]

To me, when watching the movie, one of the most surpising things was Beast singing. And I think that he has such a bass voice when singing in the movie because it reminds me of villans' voices, as they are always really low; even though his speaking voice kinda sounds tenor-ish, I wonder how he managed to sing like that, and if he's actually a bass.

[@joibenjamin2223]

His voice just resonates. When I first heard him sing Evermore I just wept.

[@Pixelkvist]

I'm a straight guy but I think I'm in love with Dan Stevens now...

[@NotYoBusiness927]

Who says no to him shirtless?!?!

[@sbear1050]

usmcgirl19 apparently moms

[@NE0VURSE]

god damn he was actually sexy as beast in the movie😂 loved it.

[@TweenGirl-ir4ye]

I wonder how Disney made Beast sexy looking despite him being made with CGI and a body suit........ but I don't care how he came to life in the movie! ( As him being the Beast, not transforming then coming back to life ) He looks hot and VERY attractive to me....... Disney, when are you going to have a 2017 Beast in y'all's parks?!

[@user89j]

his voice sound so calm... like those voices you hear from the radio dj.

[@peixuandu]

so fucking amazing voice!!!

[@mlestoll]

Does anyone else want Dan Stevens to record an album of all the best musical pieces (ie. The Phantom of the Opera) in the style of the beast or is that just me?

[@TweenGirl-ir4ye]

Emily Stoll, I want that too! Especially How Does a Moment Last Forever......

[@mlestoll]

If there's any confusion, I wasn't referring to his computer altered beast voice, I just meant his actual singing voice but when he trained it to sound more 'beastlike'. Because he also sang 'the rainbow connection' in a previous film, and he sounded totally different, so that's what I'm referring to. I feel like people can get that confused, lol.

[@aliciacctx9610]

I saw him in Legion and he was AMAZING! 100% recommend.

[@ebortz]

His eyes are so beautiful! 😍💙

[@lisbetharroyo5316]

I remember first seeing Dan Stevens as Edward Ferrars in the BBCs adaptation of Sense & Sensibility back in 2008. I've been completely obsessed with him since then.

[@laurenstich1049]

Well, then, you should really watch 21-y-o Dan in 2006's "The Line of Beauty". Incredibly sensitive and intelligent portrayal of being gay in 1980's London during the time of Margaret Thatcher's conservative rule and the emergence of AIDS. Very touching performance.

[@LeeDanielAying]

I first saw him on 'The Guest' and I knew someday he'd do a prince role. He was David here and also in Legion. Man, he's insanely beautiful.
