"This is actually very much a brainchild of Luke Evans and Josh Gad who got along famously and fantastically on set. They're best buddies now. They had a twisted idea what the prequel adventures of Gaston and LeFou might have been. It generated from them. They're the showrunners of the thing. I'm looking forward to watching it [and] I've got my Disney+ ready!"
