With Emma Watson in the lead role as Belle, Disney’s upcoming live-action Beauty and the Beast almost doesn’t need to do anything else to have us buying our tickets. But they keep adding impressive names to the cast anyway—on top of confirming Luke Evans as the film’s Gaston, Disney has announced that Emma Thompson will play the kindly Mrs. Potts (in voice only, we assume) and Kevin Kline will step in as Belle’s eccentric father, Maurice.

No mention in today’s announcement of Dan Stevens, who had reportedly been in talks to play The Beast, but that could easily just mean that contract negotiations are still in the works.

Based on the original 1991 animated film—and we have no reason to believe the live-action version won’t resemble it closely—Kline’s role will be more of a comic supporting turn (we know he’s great at those) while Thompson will be stepping into the part played memorably by Angela Lansbury. Turns out, though, it won’t be the first time Thompson has taken on a Lansbury role and made it thoroughly her own:

Disney has set the film for a March 17, 2017 release, which means it’s very clearly following in the footsteps of Alice in Wonderland, Maleficent, and now Cinderella—female-focused, big-budget films released just ahead of summer movie season, and for massive profits. It’s as formulaic and predictable as if these movies were all just sequels, but so long as they’re handing plum roles to legends like Cate Blanchett and now Thompson and Kline, we’re not going to complain.
