After much anticipation, Disney's live-action Beauty and the Beast [1] is almost here. As its title would suggest, the film is full of beautiful things [2]: dazzling sets [3], captivating scores [4], and Luke Evans. Yes, we know he's playing the villainous Gaston, but who can deny that manly physique and devilish grin [5]? His character may be a total womanizer, but there's no denying those good looks. Evans even admitted that he wanted the audience to see Gaston as a "lovable rogue" [6] before he turns into a complete bad guy. So, if you felt conflicted swooning over Gaston in the film, this post is for you.

Nothing like a man in uniform.

Mm-hmm . . .

I mean, he's not wrong.

Swoon.

Oh, heyyy.

His sword is as sharp as his jawline.

An actual angel.

Even his clapping is manly.

Danny Zuko could learn a thing or two from Gaston.

This is too much.

Oh, yes. Sexy pose time.

That hair though.

Even LeFou is speechless in his presence.

Hold us back.

*Heavy breathing*
