		</div><p>New Disney film Beauty And The Beast will feature a gay storyline, the movie’s director Bill Condon has revealed.</p>
<p>Emma Watson, 26, plays Belle and Dan Stevens, 34, is the prince transformed into a beast in the hotly-anticipated live action remake.</p>
<p>Filmmaker Bill, 61, told Attitude magazine manservant Le Fou, played by Josh Gad in the fairytale, is confused about his sexuality.</p>
<p>The ground-breaking scene will involve his character and Gaston, played by Luke Evans.<br />
“Le Fou is somebody who on one day wants to be Gaston and on another day wants to kiss Gaston. He’s confused about what he wants,” Bill said.</p>
<p>“It’s somebody who’s just realising that he has these feelings.<br />
“And Josh makes something really subtle and delicious out of it.</p>
<p>“And that’s what has its pay-off at the end, which I don’t want to give away.<br />
“But it is a nice, exclusively gay moment in a Disney movie.”</p>
<p>Dan said the lead characters are popular with gay men, adding: “It’s about that sense of persecution.<br />
“Belle is seen as a bit of a freak within her community, this girl who reads and invents things and is a bit too clever for the local establishment.</p>
<p>“And Beast is obviously persecuted because of his appearance.”</p>
<p>Emma, who recently posed braless for a magazine shoot, has previously said she wanted to make the movie role more feminist.</p>
<p>And she told the magazine: “I think it was really important actually for Dan and I to develop and understand why each of our characters feel like they don’t fit in.</p>
<p>“I certainly felt watching the original that I wanted to know more about why Belle feels that she’s different and why she wants to be different and why she’s naturally different.”</p>
<p>The news comes after a Disney XD show, Star Vs The Forces Of Evil, aired its first gay cartoon kiss.<br />
The April issue of Attitude is out now.</p>
