Halle Bailey Celebrates Wrapping ‘The Little Mermaid’ Movie

Published: Monday 12th Jul 2021 by Sam

It’s officially a wrap on the live-action adaptation of ‘The Little Mermaid.’

Halle Bailey is set to make an almighty splash as lead Ariel in the big-budget Disney adventure – which stars Melissa McCarthy as adversary Ursula, as well as Jonah Hauer-King (Eric), Awkwafina (Scuttle), and Daveed Diggs (Sebastian).

The global health crisis saw production halted a number of times. However, with perseverance, the cast and crew have completed production on the hotly anticipated flick.

Reflecting on the news, Bailey – who rose to prominence as part of sister duo Chloe x Halle – shared emotional words.

Her remarks below…

“and just like that..that’s a wrap ❤️after auditioning for this film when i was 18 just about to turn 19 , to now finishing filming through a pandemic when i turned 21 ..we have finally made it…💖i feel so grateful to have experienced this film in all of its glory..i

t has been the toughest experience being away from everything and everyone i’ve ever known, to feeling self doubt/ loneliness, but also feeling such freedom and perseverance as i’ve reached the end. this experience has made me so much stronger than i ever thought i could be.

i’m so grateful to have such lovely and talented people in the cast like @jonahhauerking that will be my friend for infinite lifetimes, @jacobtremblay who i’m so proud of 🥺and legends like @bardemantarctic @melissamccarthy @awkwafina @daveeddiggs who are masters of their craft but are so welcoming and open to little old me..as well as to the rest of the beautiful cast and crew. i cannot wait for time to speed up so you all can watch this film because it was made with so much love (plus blood sweat and tears) lol thank you sardinia for a wonderful ending!!! xoxo.

With 1989’s original movie generating a whopping$211.3 million, there are tall expectations for the new incarnation. 

We’re excited about its prospects. Are you?

    Ariel is a red-headed Danish girl. Red-heads deserve representation too. Who wants to look up to Ed Sheeran? Chile…..

      Ariel is a green siren in Hans Christian Anderson’s Little Mermaid. It’s also suspected it was an allegory for him wanting to come out as he was not straight. Sirens are carnivorous seacreatures that sing to attract sailors then eat them.

      You sound just as mentally ill as people who had a problem with Starfire’s casting in Titans or Tinkerbell’s in Peter Pan.

      MERMAIDS, ALIENS AND FAIRIES DON’T EXIST! And the fact your miserable self comments everyone on this blog with negativity indicates your JOB and S** LIFE don’t exist EITHER!

      • Shayla Queen™ 👑 July 12, 2021

        Honesty in America in 2021 is deemed mentally ill so I’ll take that. Thank you 💋

      • STFU Shayla July 12, 2021

        STFU h** and go tend to baby girl

      • Shayla Queen™ 👑 July 12, 2021

        Oh hey fan 👋🏽

  2. Are You Kidding Me? July 12, 2021

    I find it disrespectful that they cast Melissa Mccarthy. I don’t get why Queen Latifsh accepted the scraps of the TV version that nobody watched. Why did Shaggy too? Now we have the weird brother of Rainbow from Blackish dong Sebastian’s voice.

    And let’s talk about how everytime there’s an interracial couple with white, they’re ALWAYS out of the league of the non-white person? The Prince Eric is the MOST disrespectful casting I’ve seen!

    It feels like they did some weird “partial colorblind” casting since King Triton will be a Latinx guy. So..why not a HANDSOME person of color? Why a fugly white guy???? This could have been legendary like Brandy’s Cinderella. UGH.

    • Shayla Queen™ 👑 July 12, 2021

      No thank you. Go make your own film 💋🤳🏽

    • WeCameWeConquered July 12, 2021

      Oh stfu and read a book!! You’d be complaining if it was an all out white cast!! At this point your boring, your opinion is boring in fact everything about you reminds me of your s** life……….BORING

    • Slick July 12, 2021

      Please stop saying “LatinX” Latinos don’t use this garbage ass woke label.

      • Are You Kidding Me? July 12, 2021

        Latinos also don’t speak Latin and it’s just another word for white people that speak Spanish that conquered Indigenous people across the Americas and Caribbean. Don’t tell me how to speak.

    • Slick July 12, 2021

      LatinX corny asf. Say what you want but you sound stupid asf using that woke word no sane Latino uses.

  6. eric July 12, 2021

    I finally gave the live-action Aladdin film a chance and I felt like there were many bad choices made, and it was weird to hear emotion in The Lion King but not see it in the live animation. Maybe this new Mermaid will change my opinion of Disney’s live action remakes.

    • Lmfao_Hoe July 12, 2021

      The only one I felt the did absolute justice behind yet sadly put the director more into Lion King was The Jungle Book the family especially the children enjoyed it genuinely and it was a fantastic film done hopefully this one does great too

      • Shayla Queen™ 👑 July 12, 2021

        The Jungle Book was 🔥

    • Broken Promethis Promethis July 12, 2021

      Beauty and the Beast was awesome too though!

  7. UHoesFunny July 12, 2021

    And this…ladies and gentlemen is how you get the REAL Hollywood experience 😍🎥🍿 Disney fcks with Chloe x Halle the long way. They signed a multimillion dollar deal with the Sister’s, which they DID NOT for Camicky’s Cinderella 💀🤣🤣🤣 in fact they denied the rights and told Amazon they have to make it a “streaming” only showing and cut her budget 😂😂😂😂 I cannot wait to see The Little Mermaid 🧜‍♀️ on the BIG SCREEN 🤩 congrats Halle!!!

    • Shayla Queen™ 👑 July 12, 2021

      Cinderella is Columbia Pictures, not Disney, hunnie. You better come with FACTS now 💋

    So despite my embarrassing sh!t myself episode the night, my hot Laroi-lookalike-lover came back! We went on our second date and I was really feeling myself in my Primark bargain pink summer dress. I looked into his eyes and crossed my big fat black cellulite legs Sharon Shone style, and as I did, an unexpected fart let rip. It was one of those facts that come out bit by bit too, like “frap…frap…frapfrapfrap…frap”. I was so humiliated as his eyes began to water from the rotten stench of my insides! I think that may have been too much to bear for him this time. Should I call?

    • Mario July 12, 2021

      You are just vile 😂😂😂

      • 🍭marilyn monh-O-E🍭(💫Perfectly Splendid✨) July 12, 2021

        Hey shay! Thanks for having my back, guuurl! So anyway, I decided to call Laroi-lookalike, he’s just too satisfyingly delicious to let go. I forced my brush through my 5cm long tough, dry scalp until there were tears in my eyes, did up my hair in little pink ribbons to match my cheap and tacky Primark dress, and decided to wow him by facetiming him. When he saw me, his face dropped with the quickness and I could see beads of sweat dropping from his forehead. My efforts were making him hot and bothered, or so I thought. I could hear a woman’s laughter in the background, and a few seconds later, to my horror, my equally hideous, abhorantly disgusting, big fat twin sister Carolyn’s face appeared on the screen! She didn’t say anything, just looked at me and kept roaring with laughter before ending the call!

    Shits going to be garbage. Little woke mermaid with hip hop music. Why is it so hard to create new characters and new movies? this s*** is tired and corny asf.

    • Are You Kidding Me? July 12, 2021

      If you’re going to use a term, use it correctly. Woke was referring to Black people allowing foolishness to happen because they were asleep. Diversity and representation has nothing to do with being “woke”. There will be no hip hop unless you think reggae is hip hop, she is going to sing “Part of Your World”. Chloe x Halle don’t even DO hip hop, they do what can best be described as alternative/neo-soul. I don’t know what skin tone you are, but you are tonedeaf and think anything with Black people equals hip hop.

      • Slick July 12, 2021

        Rave swapping is bs. You can try amd spin it how you want it’s GARBAGE. Create new characters and stop ruining existing characters. Same goes for snow brown. Shits lame asf. It’s WOKE.

    • Lol July 12, 2021

      Stfu and stay mad we do t care 😭😭😭🤳
      Halle> flopmila cry about it !😂😂😂

  13. Nicky July 12, 2021

    Remember Camicky fans that she was going to have a blockbuster movie 😂😂

    They were confused with Hailey.

    She has the blockbuster. Camicky has straight to dvd flop

    TurkeyNeck Camicky takes another L 😂😂😂😂

  14. Patsy July 12, 2021

    Everyone’s gonna be hooked on this movie ! 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥

    • Slick July 12, 2021

      It will flip. Nobody asked for this race swapping bs. Will smith killed it cuz he’s great in almost every role he plays.

      Why not do I live adaption of the princess and the frog? That would be amazing.

  15. Lol July 12, 2021

    Me and my girls are def watching !! 😍
