Fans Are Creating Little Mermaid Artworks To Celebrate Halle Bailey's New Role As Ariel

No matter how many remakes have passed, Disney still always knows how to surprise the whole world with its new projects. Recently, social media has been stirred by its brand new casting for the upcoming "The Little Mermaid" live-action when Halle Bailey (a part of the singing duo Chloe x Halle) is chosen to be the next Ariel. Even though this surprising decision is quite controversial, there's no denying it's pretty inspiring as well.
In an interview with BuzzFeedNews, Director Rob Marshall claimed that the 19-year-old singer was undoubtedly perfect for the role. "It was abundantly clear that Halle possesses that rare combination of spirit, heart, youth, innocence, and substance — plus a glorious singing voice — all intrinsic qualities necessary to play this iconic role,” he said.
