The Little Mermaid is the beloved story of Ariel, a beautiful and spirited young mermaid with a thirst for adventure. The youngest of King Triton’s daughters and the most defiant, Ariel longs to find out more about the world beyond the sea and, while visiting the surface, falls for the dashing Prince Eric. While mermaids are forbidden from interacting with humans, Ariel must follow her heart. She makes a deal with the evil sea witch, Ursula, which gives her a chance to experience life on land but ultimately places her life – and her father’s crown – in jeopardy. The film stars singer and actress Halle Bailey (“grown-ish”) as Ariel; Jonah Hauer-King (A Dog’s Way Home) as Eric; Tony Award® winner Daveed Diggs (Hamilton) as the voice of Sebastian; Awkwafina (Raya and the Last Dragon) as the voice of Scuttle; Jacob Tremblay (Luca) as the voice of Flounder; Noma Dumezweni (Mary Poppins Returns) as The Queen; Art Malik (Homeland) as Sir Grimsby; with Oscar® winner Javier Bardem (No Country for Old Men) as King Triton; and two-time Academy Award® nominee Melissa McCarthy (Can You Ever Forgive Me?, Bridesmaids) as Ursula.

The Little Mermaid is directed by Oscar® nominee Rob Marshall (Chicago, Mary Poppins Returns) with a screenplay by two-time Oscar nominee David Magee (Life of Pi, Finding Neverland). The songs feature music from multiple Academy Award® winner Alan Menken (Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin) and lyrics by Howard Ashman, and new lyrics by three-time Tony Award® winner Lin-Manuel Miranda (Hamilton, In the Heights). The film is produced by two-time Emmy® winner Marc Platt, (Jesus Christ Superstar Live in Concert, Grease Live!), Miranda, two-time Emmy winner John DeLuca, (Tony Bennett: An American Classic), and Rob Marshall, with Jeffrey Silver (The Lion King) serving as executive producer.

  • I just saw this movie today at the movie theater and if Pat Carroll who voiced the role of Ursula in the animated movie The little mermaid 🧜‍♀️, saw the new movie, she would have offered a toast to Melissa McCarthy for nailing the role of Ursula.
  • Halle as Ariel 🤩🤩🤩 she’s the perfect match for this I’m blown away by her singing to I’m in love with this movie ❤
  • @JOSSYxxGG
    How kids reacted to her was so beautiful😮❤
  • @allysmith2284
    The best part is…… this doesn’t mean the original is gone… it’s still perfect and precious and much loved… this is just a story for our current time….. I’m so glad that more little girls get to see themselves as a Disney princess, as we did back in the 80’s and 90’s!
  • @cristelar7890
    I went to see it and cried at the end.. such lovely, funny and amazing movie❤❤❤😊🥹
  • I am 22 and I absolutely love this movie 😍🥰 so proud of Halle she did an amazing job 😍she suits Ariel so well couldn’t imagine anyone else playing Ariel now 😍🥰🥰
  • I saw it. It was visually stunning and beautiful. I loved that they made it where her and Eric had a lot in common. Halle Bailey was born for this. I got goosebumps every time I heard her sing. She captures the playfulness and innocence of Ariel. And Melissa McCarthy as Ursula, phenomenal!
  • I loved this movie! My heart goes out to this movie and this cast. This is the most perfect Disney cast I’ve ever seen
  • Melissa and Awkwafina makes it for me... But Melissa is most surprising. Even if shes not the lead character she can do it magnificently.😍😍😍💗
  • @kitkat3548
    Omg... I think Haley is so. HUMBLE. She's very silent and calm in the real life, while she sings amazingly! I can very much relate to that bc usually I dont sound very attractive or melodic, but I'm very passionate and loving and try to pour my entire soul when I sing... I'm sad I can't befriend her...
  • When I went to see the Little Mermaid today everyone applauded near the end of the credits
  • Excellent 👏❤️ looking forward for the part II, melody and morgana 😍
  • @thealetube3509
    They put so much effort on the shooting, they forgot to put it in the writing of the movie, the casting and the editing😂😂😂😂 Which is a shame. The little kid making Flounder doesn't even seem too bad. But honestly....Awkwafina as Scuttle?
  • Melissa, I love you. You're a wonderful actress. Congrats for your performance as Ursula.
  • Everyone who was part of this movie done an amazing job I loved it so much 🥰🥰fave Disney live remake along with lion king ❤❤
  • @Cocoatreat
    I just saw this movie….& it was amazing!! I think the entire cast was awesome…. I have to admit….i never saw the original….but i was blown away by the perfect diverse cast of actors! I’m not a fan of many remakes…but this one probably had to be done….as an update! Its the kind of film that will have you talking with the people next to you! We all enjoyed it immensely!
  • Fun fact when Ariel was by those shops and that lady who gave her the fork was Jodi benson
