Disney World is slowly returning to “normal.”
Belle at Enchanted Tales with Belle
Over the past several years and months, Disney has been hard at work bringing back fan favorites like the more complete version of Festival of the Lion King, the Harmony Barber Shop, Victoria and Albert’s, and more! While some things are still modified or closed, that will all be changing for one attraction soon.
Kids are off from school, college students are home, and families are all gathering together for the holidays.Â

These cold winter nights are the perfect time to throw on your pajamas, get some hot chocolate, and gather the family to watch some of your favorite holiday movies.
We just love celebrating anything and everything Disney, but what’s bigger than celebrating 100 years as a company?!

Remember when we told you about the Beauty and the Beast special that was in the works, starring Josh Groban as the Beast and H.E.R. as Belle? Then we all got excited when Disney confirmed Shania Twain as Mrs. Potts and Martin Short as Lumiere. Well, we’ve got a first look at the special now!
UPDATE: Martin Short is officially confirmed to play Lumiere and Shaina Twain is confirmed to play Mrs. Potts in the ABC special, according to Deadline.
It’s a tale as old as time (and sorry, not sorry, if you just started singing that song). In this case, it’s a tale that will turn 30 years old soon, and there’s going to be a new special to celebrate it.

But just you wait, because even MORE huge stars are set to be a part of the production.
