Other A-listers will be taking their talents to the film, too. "After an extensive search, it was abundantly clear that Halle possesses that rare combination of spirit, heart, youth, innocence, and substance - plus a glorious singing voice - all intrinsic qualities necessary to play this iconic role," director Rob Marshall said in an interview with Variety. Disney received tons of praise for casting a Black actress as Ariel in an attempt to be more inclusive and represent all people. Halle Bailey of sister R&B music duo Chloe x Halle and Freeform's Grown-ish is set to slide into Ariel's fin as the iconic princess. Things start to go wrong for Ariel once Ursula starts to work her evil magic, but with help from her dad and sea friends, the mermaid must figure out a way to find her voice. She then makes a dangerous deal with Ursula, a sea witch who steals Ariel's voice in exchange for turning her into a human for three days. Her strict father King Triton has forbidden her to go on land in an attempt to protect her, but she goes anyway and falls for a human prince. The original story of The Little Mermaid follows 16-year-old Ariel, a mermaid who's fascinated with life on land. Here's everything we know about The Little Mermaid's live-action film so far. Just like Princess Ariel can't wait to swap her mermaid fin for some human legs, we’re already getting excited to see the live-action rendition of this classic come to life. The original Little Mermaid was actually part of Disney's Renaissance, which birthed iconic animated films like Aladdin and The Lion King (which also turned live-action in the 2010s).
Disney's given their beloved animated films the live-action treatment for a while now, and their upcoming release of The Little Mermaid will be nothing short of epic.
