About the live action Little Mermaid movie?

I've heard Disney did it on purpose as a marketing strategy. They're getting a lot of free advertising, that's for sure. I also heard no actual redheads auditioned or even expressed interest in the role (except bhad bhabie on Twitter who's far too ghetto and not a natural redhead). They needed someone who could sing and act, so that really put limits on it.

Finding someone of the right size and body type to be a mermaid as well as having high-budget studio quality acting and singing skills on top of being a redhead sounds like a pain in the butt to cast.

I don't really care who they cast as long as the said performer can act and sing and I think they made the right choice from who they picked

Because that is what Disney wanted to do.

It’ll be dope that it’s a black mermaid
