Assuming they do appear (and since it's based on the musical version, at least that's what's indicated, they probably are going to appear), I hope the writers make sure to actually make them seem inferior in terms of physical beauty compared to Belle, not to mention definitely give them internally ugly characteristics.

One of the huge flaws with the original animated Disney film for Beauty and the Beast was that, despite Gaston's motives, despite the statements of the opening song, they ended up making those three more beautiful than her in terms of physical appearances (come on, they have bodies you would expect to see from the Dead or Alive series), and not only that, but thanks to some hints in the film from their behavior, and especially the failure to show any internal ugly characteristics, plus some of the questionable stuff Belle does throughout the film, they actually came across as being far closer to the moral of true beauty coming from within than the actual female main protagonist, and this was despite their crushing on the main villain (who fortunately actually met the characteristics of internal ugliness). This is especially bad since they were the closest Belle has to foils, not to mention the closest thing the film has to Belle's wicked sisters in the original tale. Honestly, would it have killed the writers to have made them at least a bit closer to Drizella and Anastasia in terms of behavior and character instead of just some girls who other than crushing on the big bad for reasons that are implied to be naivety are otherwise genuinely nice girls?
