Okay, so who’s excited about the live-action The Little Mermaid?

We’ve learned more about the movie since it was initially announced, and we even got a release date for it a while ago. We also learned that Ursula’s backstory is getting a new twist, and we’ve even seen the first teaser trailer. But now, it looks like we’ll soon see live-action Ariel in Disney World.
In the live-action version of The Little Mermaid, Halle Bailey takes on the role of Ariel — and now Disney World is looking for look-alikes. Disney has posted an audition notice for “Look-alikes for the role of ARIEL as depicted in the upcoming live-action adaption of The Little Mermaid.”

According to the listing, Disney is looking for character lookalikes who are 5’2″-5’6″ with “warm, engaging, and outgoing personalities to portray Ariel.” There’s even a photo include of Halle Bailey, who is playing Ariel in the new film, for reference.

Those interested in auditioning can head on over to Disney’s Auditions website for more information.
In the meantime, mark those calendars, the live-action The Little Mermaid arrives in theaters on May 26th, 2023! Also, you can prepare an Ariel-inspired outfit for the parks with AllEars Style!
