Beastly is an upcoming 2011 fantasy romance film based on Alex Flinn’s 2007 novel of the same name. 

It is a retelling of the fairytale Beauty and the Beast set in modern-day New York City. The film is written 

and directed by Daniel Barnz and stars Vanessa Hudgens, Alex Pettyfer, Mary Kate Olsen, Neil Patrick 

Harris and Lisa Gay Hamilton. The plot focuses on Kyle Kingson, a handsome man with an evil streak, 

who disrespects a classmate, who is a witch in disguise, during an environmental event. The witch then 

casts a spell on Kyle and physically transforms him into a grotesque monster. It was expected to be 

distributed to theaters by CBS Films and Alliance Films on July 30, 2010. It was, however, moved to 

March 18, 2011, in order to avoid Hudgens film from clashing with the release of Zac Efron’s film Charlie 

St. Cloud, but in January 2011, it was bumped up to March 4, 2011.

Kyle Kingsbury
is the golden boy of high school:
handsome and athletic, 
He exploits his looks to get what he wants.
Foolishly, he ignores whispers about classmate

Kendra being a witch and humiliates her in public.

She retaliates by robbing Kyle of his chiselled cheekbones,

cursing him to look unattractive unless he can find true love in 12 months.

Consigned to an apartment with blind tutor Will and Jamaican housemaid Zola,

Kyle gives up on life until fate throws pretty classmate Lindy 

into his path and her sweetness opens Kyle’s eyes to the mistakes of the past.

Synopsis-When a spell is cast on a spoiled, shallow high school student (Alex Pettyfer) that physically transforms him into someone as unattractive on the outside as he is on the inside, he has one year to find a young woman (Vanessa Hudgens) who will love him despite his hideous form or the spell will last forever.

Beastly

A cover of a book...

I am a beast.

A beast. Not quite wolf or bear, gorilla or dog but a horrible new creature who walks upright—a creature with fangs and claws and hair springing from every pore. I am a monster.

You think I'm talking fairy tales? No way. The place is New York City. The time is now. It's no deformity, no disease. And I'll stay this way forever—ruined—unless I can break the spell.

Yes, the spell, the one the witch in my English class cast on me. Why did she turn me into a beast who hides by day and prowls by night? I'll tell you. I'll tell you how I used to be Kyle Kingsbury, the guy you wished you were, with money, perfect looks, and the perfect life. And then, I'll tell you how I became perfectly . . . beastly.
