As usual, change the race of the female character but must ALWAYS have a white male or two as leads. Watch all shows/movies made now. All the same.

Wait...maybe I should just play Ariel then... I mean just to stop all the arguing about it😇

Everyone is hating on this, but you guys are sleeping on Harry. He can obviously sing, he's funny, and of course he gorgeous. He can knock this out of the park if you give him a chance.

No

Umm he kinda looks like him but I don’t know 😄it’s my favorite cartoon from when I was little please don’t fuck it up. It’s my childhood 😬😬

HIM. Take him. Noah Centenio looks the part and coincidentally can act!

the_weave2 ummm.....

Get Camila to be Ariel. She can be Cinderella and Ariel 😂🤷🏻‍♂️

nope.

I mean I like Harry Styles but I don’t want him to be Prince Eric

Why does Disney have to produce Remakes like Mother Nature bringing in a tsunami? There's so many of these Remakes I don't remember the last time Disney made something that isn't a remake. Excluding Pixar. Please! Someone remind me! P.S.: Aware that Frozen2 is on its way.

Hey, at least he's age-appropriate. HalleBailey is 19 and HarryStyles is 25. That's a far better pairing than the original cartoon, where we know for a fact Ariel is 16, and Prince Eric is drawn to look like our Prime Minister, who (despite being v. handsome) is a cringey 47.

Ugh. No

Based on this alone, the movie will be trash

🤮

yes ma’am

Worst casting ever 🤦🏻‍♀️

Someone please explain to me why people are opposing lol💀 I literally don’t understand someone educate me

Please ON MY MOMMA say sike

i’m gonna take my boo to go see this 🥴💕

Oh my God, please no.

oh my god yes

I smell some hypocrisy in the comments

They should cast someone we don’t know!

if he does get casted I’ll find it very entertaining to watch all these people eat their words and praise his performance.

Rome Trumain Flynn

Eric was the lamest prince so this makes perfect sense

mol_sal12- can you event imagine?

Shawn mendez would be a better pick

stylespromoarmy Make it happen. 😍

Hell yes.

Get R Kelly

Hiring two black people is too much? I hate interracial relationships in tv/film. It’s just a way to have your token POC.

No hendery pls

Please don’t do this.

Oh white genocide agenda here

Please don’t. If he gone be white let him be a good looking white man for the love of God

I think it should be michaelb4jordan ...he can do it all.

Eww

Wait, Prince Eric wasn’t British. 🧜🏾‍♀️🧜🏾‍♀️🧜🏾‍♀️🧜🏾‍♀️🧜🏾‍♀️🧜🏾‍♀️🧜🏾‍♀️🧜🏾‍♀️

Yes!!!! I support this.

please dont-

Uh... hello, he's white. He'll feel superior to Ariel. They're really not thinking, are they?

Ew, he's not all that attractive. I don't get what girls see in him.

iconic he’s gonna do so well

brendonurie should be the one for the role!!!

I have a better candidate for the role

I thought it was going to be an Asian dude

Who asked for a live action movie for this?

cbbh_97 iCH HEULE

No waaaayyyy

He was a man and Harry is a boy. No!

StephenBright Certainly one of the stupidest Disney films ever made. Where a woman gives up everything to be with a man. Why don't men ever do that for women?

Let me introduce you to a 2x Emmy Nominated actor named Billy Flynn instead....

lmao at people making a huge deal out of this but making Ariel black seems totally normal to them

Hell no please think of someone else!😐

keep it

Disney Please expand your viewing 👀options..outside of the white male savior & love of African-Americans women.. Asian, Latino, Indian..etc.. Thank You..

He’ll be perfect! 😻

What the flying fish cakes?!?!?!?

Ok, now I know 4 sure that I won't be watching this movie!

What is the problem? it will be a musical and they need singers and he is one plus he has a lot of fans...

Oh my god please no. He's so wrong for this! Please just cast Darren Criss. He looks exactly like Eric and has already played him before in a live production

Why?

MannyMua733 Did you know?

I'm not a directioner or a harry styles fan but why are people so fucking pressed in the mentions I'm genuinely confused

ew indeed

White people rejoice!

1dcoli

WTF THEY CAST A WHITE GUY?!?!?!?! But he did wear a dress. 🤔

I hate live-action remakes with the fire of 1000 suns but he’d be fine as Eric. He was good in Dunkirk, he can sing & he’ll put butts in seats which is all Disney cares about anyway.

I think, the public should get to vote on the final casts of each IRL Disney production. Cause this is just ridiculous.

He was good in Dunkirk

RUT R😳H cue the assholes that'll say he's not American, when America doesn't have King's, Queen's, Prince's or Princess'es!! Oh🙄boi

I love Harry, but NO. I don't want a white prince savior syndrome storyline...

Why

He's ugly.

Yay!!!!

If you have Halle Bailey playing Ariel, why would you cast him to play the prince.... If you're going to go there then go all the way.... Otherwise it looks like pandering....

okay Ian somerhalder tho

Stop just stop...

No DisneyStudios NOOOOO !! We all know he doesn’t like any fresh water !! Nooooo TheLittleMermaid

no jimin

No

notblackenough

He looks more like Edward ScissorHands than Prince Eric

Hell No

the EXCELLENCE jumped out !!

name someone else who would do a better job, i'll wait

sonia_m96

Ugh.

And Ariana Grande as Ariel? Or what?

YES PLEASE OH MY GOD Spin_The_Harry WHAT WILL WE DO

I'm just happy HALLE BAILEY IS ARIEL! I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL THE MOVIE COMES OUT!

If the movie wasn’t ruined before...

No mms

He would be more in line to play one of Ariel’s sisters...

No, no, and NOA!

_boyifyoudont I’d cry omg

👆

Please. No.

But he looks like Dr. Who on Meth

Stop, Disney stop playin’ !!!

I can’t content my Excitement!!!! Harry singing as Prince Eric, please God, Mary and all saints!

...well then...

noooo😩 q sea zein 🤔

Ugh! No!

SarahAbedi2

They can't save this from going straight to streaming no matter what they do...

taylorbaker___ girl

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

PLEASE LET THIS HAPPEN OMG

Hell no

Disney no one wants this

Yes.

YES!

I only watch the cartoon version

YES

Noooooooookko

I remember reading around the time of the first series that the Duffer's had plans for 4 seasons, so the upcoming one (assuming it gets renewed, which I'd be SHOCKED if it doesnt) would be the last. Makes sense too as the kids get older. It really only works while they're kids.
