Announcing that the cast and crew was back at work, Ryan put up a blurry picture of lit-up skyscrapers at night on his Twitter account. Although this hints little about what to expect from season 4 it's good to know that the production has begun.

Director Stuart Gillard has also been pretty good about updating fans about the development of season 4.

In fact the writers and producers of Beauty and the Beast are already back in the workshop developing season 4 of Beauty and the Beast.

The writers announced that they were back at work on March 31. On April 1, co-executive producer Gillian Horvath also tweeted about how things were going from behind-the-scenes. Horvath is already getting great vibes about the next chapter in the series, as she believes it might just trump the other three seasons of The CW show.

"#BATB S4 is already shaping up to be the best yet! #nospoilers," she tweeted.
