CBS Films's Beastly is a modern retelling of Beauty And The Beast, where Harris plays a blind tutor who develops a relationship with a teenager shocked by their hideous appearance. Vanessa Hudgens and Mary-Kate Olsen are also signed up for the project, while Daniel Barnz is directing.
Meanwhile, Best is an indie farce about a couple from Delaware, who move to New York and become embroiled in "the world of the city's private kindergartens".
Bonnie Somerville, Amy Sedaris, John Hodgman and Peter Serafinowicz are among the cast. Shooting is currently underway in Philadelphia.
