New members of the "Beauty and the Beast" cast were announced recently and previously confirmed lead star Emma Watson was quick to welcome the two guys who will be fawning over her.
The brunette beauty and brains hyped up social media when she tweeted photos of the actors playing Beast and Gaston in the Disney remake.
Dan Stevens from "Downton Abbey" has signed on as Watson's Beast while "Dracula Untold" star Luke Evans will be taking on Gaston.
The 32-year-old English actor and producer tweeted a photo with the words "Beast Mode" which was later retweeted by the "Harry Potter" star. She followed that up with some words of welcome and a photo of the actor.

Meanwhile, Stevens' former "Downton Abbey" co-star Lily James - Disney's current "Cinderella" - shared her support for her former co-actor.
"I'm so excited he's playing the beast! I couldn't believe it, I texted him immediately," she reportedly told The Hollywood Reporter. "Practice your dancing, because you're gonna have to do it at some point!"
