The Hollywood Reporter released their inaugural list of the "30 Most Powerful Film Producers" and Beauty and the Beast producers Todd Lieberman & David Hoberman (Mandeville Films) are among those recognized by the publication. THR's profile of the pair also features a quote from Lieberman about their approach to the beloved Disney classic.

"What we came up with years ago was: 'It would be great to tell that story from the Beast’s perspective,' but it evolved into, 'Let’s tell it the classic way,' " says Lieberman.

Beauty and the Beast begins production next month in London and is set for release on March 17, 2017.
