Beauty and the Beast trailer SMASHES records

The record was previously held by Jamie Dornan's film trailer for 50 Shades Darker

The trailer for Beauty and the Beast has broken the record for most views in a single day.

The record was previously held by Jamie Dornan’s film 50 Shades Darker, that had a whopping 114 million views in the first 24 hours of it’s release.

However, Emma Watson’s new flick easily passed 127 million views in under a day – that’s more than five times the entire population of Ireland.
