On May 30, director Stuart Gillard unveiled the first behind-the-scenes still from filming of season 4 of Beauty and the Beast featuring Austin Basis and Nina Lissandro via his Twitter account.

Gillard tweeted two versions of the frame calling it a "hot set" and announcing that season 4 was underway ("bring out the fans").

Previously, Jay Ryan, who plays Vincent in the series tweeted a less definitive picture announcing that the cast and crew was back at work. He put up a blurry picture of lit-up skyscrapers at night on his Twitter account.

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