We have added the new full trailer for CBS films modern day twist on the 'Beauty and the Beast' tale, 'Beastly'. The romantic fantasy film stars English heart throb Alex Pettyfer, and 'High School Musical' beauty Vanessa Hudgens in the two leading roles.

The film also stars Mary-Kate Olsen, Neil Patrick Harris, Erik Knudsen, Peter Krause, Dakota Johnson, and Gio Perez.

Watch the trailer below;



'Beastly' is released across the US from March 18th, 2011 and the UK from April 15th, 2011.

"Beastly" is an edgy teen romance about learning how to see past false surfaces to discover true inner beauty.

Kyle Kingson (Alex Pettyfer) has it all – looks, intelligence, wealth and opportunity – and a wicked cruel streak. Prone to mocking and humiliating "aggressively unattractive" classmates, he zeroes in on Goth classmate Kendra, inviting her to the school’s extravagant environmental bash. Kendra accepts, and, true to form, Kyle blows her off in a particularly savage fashion. She retaliates by casting a spell that physically transforms him into everything he despises. Enraged by his horrible and unrecognizable appearance he confronts Kendra and learns that the only solution to the curse is to find someone that will love him as he is – a task he considers impossible.

Repulsed by his appearance, Kyle's callous father banishes him to Brooklyn with a sympathetic housekeeper and blind tutor. As Kyle ponders how to overcome the curse and get his old life back, he chances upon a drug addict in the act of killing a threatening dealer. Seizing the opportunity, Kyle promises the addict freedom and safety for his daughter, Lindy (Vanessa Hudgens) if she will consent to live in Kyle's Brooklyn home. Thus begins Kyle's journey to discover true love in this hyper-modern retelling of the classic "Beauty and the Beast" story.
