Live-Action Ariel Will Meet Guests in Disney Parks Starting Next Month

There”s been a lot of controversy surrounding Disney”s live-action remake of The Little Mermaid (2023), but Disney has continued to promote and incorporate the film into their Parks.

While many fans were worried about Hallee Bailey”s version completely replacing the animated version of Ariel we all know and love, it seems as though the two versions will be co-existing to some extent. A casting call was first released in January of this year, stating that actresses would be portraying Ariel as depicted in the upcoming film. Now Disney has officially confirmed that the live-action Ariel will be coming to Disneyland, Walt Disney World, and Disneyland Paris starting next month to coincide with the film”s release in theaters.

It seems as though the live-action meet and greet may be a limited-time offering, with specific mentions of “summer,” but it”s possible they”re waiting to see how popular the character will be before confirming a permanent inclusion. Disney promises that Guests will still be able to meet the animated version of Ariel at each Park as well, and the locations of the live-action version seem specifically placed as to avoid any crossover between the two versions.
