Disney fans will soon be able to sing along to the live-action remake of The Little Mermaid at home, as the streaming debut of The Little Mermaid on Disney Plus has been set for Wednesday, September 6. The movie arrives a little more than three months after its premiere in movie theaters.
Retelling the animated classic, The Little Mermaid follows Ariel (Halle Bailey), a beautiful and spirited young mermaid and daughter of King Triton (Javier Bardem) with a thirst for adventure and a longing to find out more about the world beyond the sea. While visiting the surface, she falls for the dashing Prince Eric (Jonah Hauer-King). To try and follow her heart, Ariel makes a deal with the evil sea witch Ursula (Melissa McCarthy), giving her a chance to experience life on land but ultimately places her life — and her father's crown — in jeopardy.
