Disney targets to regenerate that magic along with that live-action adaptation that has set to hit in 2023 with Halle bailey playing some of the pivotal characters. We have got our first look at the highly anticipated trailer.
The latest trailer has provided the first look at the ariel of Bailey as the film’s mermaid princess has been fascinated by those human worlds. The role was mainly voiced by Jodi Benson in the 1989 film. In the new trailer, we have seen bailey singing the most iconic song “Part of Your World’ and also putting her own individual spin on it.
