Jonah Hauer-King was in the middle of rehearsals for Disney's "The Little Mermaid" when he heard a voice ring out from another area of the soundstage. When he realized who the voice belonged to, the English actor pulled what can only be described as a Prince Eric move.
"I said, 'I'm sorry, I know I've got to be somewhere right now,'" recalled Hauer-King, who plays Eric in the live-action remake. "'I'm going in there, and I'm listening.'"
With that, the onscreen prince set off in search of his princess, Halle Bailey, who was busy rehearsing Ariel's showstopping ballad, "Part of Your World." Much like his character, Hauer-King was enamored with Bailey's voice from the first time he heard her sing.
