Disney to Remake The Little Mermaid?

they're mulling it, just like they're mulling remaking every film they've ever done.

Not every one.

I was hoping they'd remake THE APPLE DUMPLING GANG.

Glad to see original ideas and new scripts are still being supported and embraced by Hollywood.

The simple fact is that they have live action films planned for just about every animated film...

Waiting patiently for Pocahontas then.

Avatar already came out.

For the Universal version

As mentioned above, this new adaption starring Chloë Grace Moretz is based on the original Hans Christian Anderson story and has nothing to do with the 1989 Disney animated musical film. Sofia Coppola was once attached to direct this but withdrew due to creative differences.

I love these clips from PattyCake productions. It's interesting, their clips of BATB and Maleficent give me more goosebumps than the Hollywood film versions. For example the scene "Belle" just sparkles, unlike the Emma Watson film version. This little Mermaid clip gives me goosebumps too. Of course they use different songs etc, but it's the way they dare to go all the way with it, original camera shots and I just love the feeling of the pre-recorded tracks, which makes it feel much more like sung thoughts and not too literal, which is essential for this artform on film. Also, they use better singers, which results in soaring scenes, no matter how camp or exaggerated. They have the balls to take the sung thoughts to the next level and beyond, instead of apologizing for it by speak singing or toning it down to make it falsely literal.

There is a video on youtube that obviously a true fan of The Little Mermaid has made with their casting choices and i think it is quite genius...

I love the following casting choices they have picked...

HENRY CAVILL - PRINCE ERIC (couldn't be more perfect for the role!)

QUEEN LATIFAH - URSULA (although i think she would be good, another idea would be KATHLEEN TURNER as she has the deep sinister voice that Ursula conveys!)

KEVIN HART - SEBASTIAN

MEGAN FOX - VANESSA

SETH MCFARLANE - SCUTTLE (i think his quick wit and humour would be amazing!)

MELISSA McCARTHY - CARLOTTA (i think this would be inspired casting!)

JASON ALEXANDER - CHEF LOUIS (again, i think this would be inspired casting!)

The casting choice they have picked for one of the sisters, is ALEXANDRA DADARRIO, where i think would be a good casting choice for Ariel.

For the casting of KING TRITON, I think a good choice would be Liam Neeson.
