The Little Mermaid: Halle Bailey Making Waves In Representation With Live-action

The Little Mermaid series is not one we usually hear about in terms of representation given that Ariel is the only central character who is a woman. But, Halle Bailey will be making history by being Disney’s first Black, female protagonist in a live-action film. The news doesn’t stop there as she will also serve as the film’s executive producer and songwriter. The project is supported by Disney Channel president Gary Marsh, who has announced that they are looking to have “strong empowered women at the center of our stories. The Little Mermaid is a perfect fit with this directive, so we’re excited to get to work with Halle in this new capacity.”

The series is a live-action remake of the classic animated film, which was based on the fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen. Bailey’s role is currently unconfirmed, but given that the character is traditionally blonde, she may change her appearance for the role, as she was able to successfully do for her portrayal of Patrice in Grown-ish.

Do you know about the release date of the Little Mermaid series:

This series will be released on 23 May 2023. Also, the series has cast Halle Bailey as its lead character. It is said that the series will follow the classic tale of Ariel, a sixteen-year-old mermaid living under the sea, who wishes to become human so she can finally be with her prince. The mermaid’s wish is granted by Ursula, a sea witch, and Ariel’s not-so-secret admirer. However, it doesn’t take long for Ariel to discover that there’s more to being human than she realized. When she goes ashore, she meets Prince Eric and they instantly fall in love with each other while continuing her quest to become a human.

Here is the plot of the Little Mermaid series discussed:

The plot of the series will be a modern-day tale of the Little Mermaid, taking place in California. The series will feature new music written by Halle and produced by Timbaland. The series will be produced by The Jim Henson Company and co-produced by Disney. The series will also be a musical, featuring new songs written by Halle and produced by Timbaland.

What can we expect from the Little Mermaid series?

We can expect the series to be a live-action fantasy romance TV series. The whole story of the series will revolve around the character of Ariel, who is a mermaid living in a kingdom under the sea. She falls in love with a human prince, and she wants to become a human so that she can be with her lover. But when her wish is granted by an evil sea witch, she finds out more about herself and what it takes to be human than what she might have expected.

How would The Little Mermaid live up to its name?

With the new information coming in, it’s not too hard to figure out how this series will live up to its name. The character of Ariel was not originally a mermaid, but she was an animated character voiced by Halle Bailey. It is also worth noting that the color of the character back then was pale and rosy, while in this series, her color will be as bright as Royal Blue.

Who are the director’s favorite characters and why?

The favorite characters of the directors are Ariel, Eric, and Ursula. As for why we have to look at the roles that each has that have been explained in different situations by the directors. Jonah Hauer-King is excited about his character, Prince Eric because he gets to play the role with both a good heart and a bad one. “He’s nice and charming one minute, but rude and obnoxious the next,” said Hauer-King. He also added that although his character has a good heart, he seems to be self-absorbed and thinks only of himself at times because of his arrogance.” 

What is the storyline of the Little Mermaid series?

The storyline of the series is an adaptation of the story written by Hans Christian Andersen. The Little Mermaid is a story of a young girl who dreams of having a life above water, just like her sisters and brothers. Her dreams are fulfilled when an evil sea witch appears and offers to give her that life, in exchange for her voice.
