Posted: 9/8/06 at 2:02pmI think she would be a divine Ariel. Whoever plays Eric would be lucky to have her!

I don't think she'd leave Phantom right now, but here is your perfect Ariel.

Posted: 9/10/06 at 10:55ami think everything about celia would be perfect for the role.

Posted: 9/10/06 at 2:03pmI like the Lauren Ambrose suggestion - she's very youthful-looking and a natural redhead to boot...
re: Who will play Ariel?#132
Posted: 9/10/06 at 4:45pmjennifer hope wills could be good as ariel as she has a good voice, but i don't think she could pull off the role of ariel. Celia Keenan-Bolger, would be perfect for the role as she is young, talented and the look of ariel. rumours were that she was tied to the project.

No Kate Reidners..... You can't play Ariel like Dainty June!
She sure as hell plays Glinda like it.....
Rachel York! She looks fabulous as a redhead!

Did anyone just see Kate Mara (Heath Ledger's daughter in Brokeback Moutain) sing the national anthem on tv? She might be good.

Posted: 9/10/06 at 8:49pmI'm actually really liking the idea of Celia as Ariel. She can play both cutesy roles (spelling bee)and ingenues (Piazza) making the transition of sporty Ariel into the beautiful bride Ariel great.

totally aggree annelise is already involved with Disney so that's a big possibility.

Not sure if she would want TLM to be her Broadway debut, but I could see her in it.
re: Who will play Ariel?#141
Posted: 9/18/06 at 11:47amI think the role should go to Ashlee Simpson or Lindsay Lohan or Hillary Duff.

When I saw Ashley Brown in On the Record, I remember thinking she would be great for Ariel based on her performance of the Little Mermaid songs. Of course, that was before she was tapped to play Belle and now Mary Poppins, so she might want to branch out of the Disney heroine mold . . .

Posted: 9/23/06 at 3:54pmI like the idea of Celia being Ariel. I think she would have fun being a disney fairy-tale character.

I agree with Folkyboy...I absolutely love Celia, and she is very talented, but she just kind of has a distinct, unique look to her that I don't think would go well with Ariel.
Well, Ariel is a very unique woman/fish.
