Well, I have no problem with her to be portrayed Belle.

I'd prefer someone else, as Emma's acting is "wooden."

^yeah.
too bad Emmy Rossum is too old; I think she would have been great.

doesn't this question get asked a couple times a month anyhow?

It'll just be her Hermione but exaggerated up to 100: the return of her bossy voice "QUIET, RONALD!" and those crazy eyebrows of hers.

I can understand why people might see it different, but I think she will be great! And I love her ;)

She's my favourite actress, it's kinda unfair that people tend to stereotype her as Hermione.

^ agree. I mean, she just did a series as her first role in acting career. People really need to get over that, even if they don't see as a good choice for Belle. Anyways, good casting for Belle, imo

She's a great actress and suits as Belle. I could see her as the haughty, bookish Belle, as I've seen her in portraying Hermione Granger. But my other part said that she is too renowned as the curly-haired witch, so I will see her as Hermione instead of 100% Belle, unlike Lily James as Cinderella. One more thing, why British?? Why has it always to be British??? (Angelina Jolie & Elle Fanning with fake British accents, even Lily James, Daisy Ridley, Tom Holland, etc.) No French actress is good enough, Disney? So not like Harry Potter's (NOT FANTASTIC BEASTS') cast... XD
