Beauty And The Beast Star Emma Watson Already Has An Idea For A Sequel

The live-action remake of Beauty and The Beast continues to dominate the worldwide box office. Fans can't get enough of the magical tale, and they're already campaigning to get a sequel into production. Fortunately for them, star Emma Watson is definitely down for another movie.

While talking with Access Hollywood at the Tribeca Film Festival, Watson was asked about a possible sequel. It will come as no surprise that she said, without a moment's hesitation, that she's absolutely love to play Belle again.

However, Watson's responses did get a bit surprising when asked about a potential plot for the next movie.

"I always thought that Belle would become a teacher, and run the library in the castle. And she would open it up to the whole village."

That definitely makes sense when it comes to the character's future, but it doesn't sound like the most exciting movie. Maybe if the sequel started that way, and turned in to a much bigger adventure?

Either way, a sequel seems very likely at this point. It would be hard for Disney to turn down that kind of money.
