The poster for the film made by Disney, The Little Mermaid, which is present in live action, has been released and shared on the Instagram account @disney on Wednesday April 26, 2023. There are 7 posters distributed in the Disney account. The poster contains Ariel, Ursula, King Triton, Prince Eric, Sebastian, Scuttle and Flounder.
The film, which will soon be released on May 26, was colored by issues of racism and negative comments because the main player who plays Ariel, Halle Bailey, is a black American woman. Halle Bailey was lined up to become Ariel after director Rob Marshall discovered her extraordinary singing talent. According to Variety, Marshall first saw Bailey on the 2019 Grammys broadcast.
The director was fascinated by Bailey's singing voice, but had no idea if she could act. So Marshall asked Bailey to audition for "The Little Mermaid" by singing Ariel's signature song "Part of Your World". The choice of Bailey as Ariel was met with a lot of rejection by Disney fans, especially those who like the film The Little Mermaid. Fans accuse the choice of Bailey as Ariel not in accordance with the depiction of Ariel's character in the animation.
Ariel is described as a mermaid with white skin and red hair. While Bailey himself has black skin with brown hair in the Ariel film. For this, the film Ariel The Little Mermaid has received a lot of criticism. The director is credited with destroying children's childhood dreams of a white mermaid with beautiful red hair.
Now this is still being talked about by netizens, criticism still colors the film. Netizen comments can be seen in the poster photo of The Little Mermaid player.
