ABC's BeautyAndTheBeast 30th Celebration Special casts David Alan Grier as a beloved Disney character:

David Alan Grier will help tell a tale as old as time on Disney and ABC's Beauty and the Beast: A 30th Celebration special. The Tony Award-winning actor and In Living Color comedian will play Cogsworth, the clock butler, in the animated and live-action blended special re-imagination of the beloved 1992 Disney Animation musical.

Crazy Rich Asians and In the Heights filmmaker Jon M. Chu, who has an overall deal with Disney Television Studios, is executive producing The Wonderful World of Disney and ABC special event presentation. Directing the special is Hamish Hamilton, who helmed ABC's Disney Family Singalong special and the Emmy-winning Super Bowl LVI halftime show headlined by Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Eminem, Mary J. Blige, and Kendrick Lamar.

Chu added:"With world-class creatives and talent to reinterpret the classic musical numbers , I can't wait for the audiences, in person and at home, to experience what we have in store for them. It's a true celebration of creativity."
