While she is very hot. She is too old. It's clear Disney wanted to go with a young Ariel. Halle is like 18 or 19 and could pass for 14 or 15. Also, can Amber Heard even sing. Halle has a great singing voice which is likely what got her the role

No way. Melissa McCarthy is a way better choice.

I don't really care personally but this casting decision makes no sense to me.

Cute girl but this race/gender bend stuff is so boring and uninteresting.
Ultimately doesnt matter though, this is for kids and if this makes little black girls feel better....so be it.

I'd go with Lady Gaga as Ursula. the actress doesn't have to be fat to play the role. She'd nail those particular vocal parts as well.

I’m over it and came to grips a while back that sooner or later Hollywood is going to remake every white movie with black actors
I never understand why the Hispanics aren't more upset they don’t get cast as lead roles? They make up 3x the population African Americans do.

I thought the love interest in Spider-Man was supposed to play her.
Regardless, Rebel Wilson is a worse choice to play Ursula. Ariel is without question the worst of the Disney princesses (save for her voice). But Ursula is very iconic, and Rebel Wilson won’t be able to pull her off.
This will be controversial, but personally I think they should have given Nathan Lane the role. Ursula was based off of drag queens, and we know Lane can do that. I think he would have killed as Ursula. But this would never happen, because these days they’d accuse Disney of being transphobic. As for reference, here is the drag queen Ursula was mostly based off.

Melissa McCarthy is just obnoxious. Ursula needs some subtly but can break out in hysterics on a dime. I agree with the other poster here that Gaga would be a better choice, although I think Lane is pitch perfect casting.

Amber Heard was fricking sexy as frick as a redhead in Aquaman. They seriously couldn't make the easy decision and pick her? Mother fricker this is a disaster of a choice for Ariel. Nice choice guys!
Amber Heard is older than I am, so no. It’s why they didn’t cast Anne Hathaway as Belle.

The spitting image of what Dutchman Hans Christian Andersen had in mind for sure.
I assume this means Triton and all her sisters are hood now too?
Prince Eric gonna be Prince DeAndre?

Gaga would also appease the LGBQLMNOP crowd who are clamoring for a drag queen to get the role since she is their #1 champion

Only the good guy though, not the villain. Casting a drag queen or transsexual as a villain is transphobic. Haven’t you seen Silence of the Lambs?

Hence they went with a young actress who looks 16. Where are we disagreeing here?
