Beauty and the Beast stars Smallville’s Kristin Kreuk as Catherine Chandler. She’s a homicide detective with a chip on her shoulder, and a dark secret.
As a teenager, Catherine watched as her mother was brutally killed in front of her. The only thing that spared her a similar fate was a mysterious and beastly stranger.
