The duo will join previously announced star Vanessa Hudgens in the Manhattan-based high-school retelling of classic fairtyale Beauty And The Beast.
Olsen has been lined up to star as a transfer student who places a curse on Pettyfer's handsome and egotistical character, causing his outer appearance to resemble his inner nastiness.
The story will then revolve around his attempts to convince Hudgens's character that inner beauty is more important than exterior looks.
Production is scheduled to begin on June 13 in Montreal, with Daniel Barnz directing from his own script.
