Ewan McGregor'saccent struggle for Beauty And The Beast

Actor Ewan McGregor struggled to perfect a French accent for his role in the live-action remake of "Beauty and the Beast."
The Scottish actor was thrilled to be playing the part of singing candelabra Lumiere in Disney's new movie, which stars Emma Watson as Belle and Dan Stevens as the Beast, reported Entertainment Weekly.
But while taking on the project was too good an opportunity to turn down, there was one particular aspect of the role Ewan struggled with - the character's iconic French drawl.
"We went to London, we did some very quick accent-coaching, which in my case didn't work out terribly well," he said.

"My French didn't really sound very French to begin with -it sounded a bit Spanish or something. And then some time later, I went over to New York, where Bill Condon (the film's director) was doing all his post-production and I recorded the whole part again.
"I'd done a bit more work on the accent, so it sounded more French and I got re-record the song (Be Our Guest). So, I got to do my whole performance again, which was a really nice opportunity. You don't often get offered that.
