I see the amount of talent amassed for this newest “Ariel” endeavor, and it’s impressive! From the animation to the music to the voice talent – wow! I love the people assembled by Disney.
My only gripe is why change a staple of the Disney lore? Ariel was not multicultural – she was a white mermaid with red hair. Why change what many of us grew up with.
Wouldn’t it have been better if this had been a close friend of Ariel’s instead of replacing her?
I know that if Black Panther were re-made with a white T’Challa, the outcry would be deafening. Now I am Latino, and I am for DEI, but stop messing with the standards. The talent assembled here can stand on their own, thank you very much – they didn’t have walk on the original Ariel’s back to succeed.
