Ariel and Prince Eric’s Romantic Night Ends With A Splash In New ‘Little Mermaid’ Clip

Disney fans, buckle up, due to the fact that another precious tune from your youth has actually gotten the live-action treatment. On Sunday night (May 7) at the MTV Movie & & Television Awards, a glossy brand-new clip from The Little Mermaid dropped. Here, we get to see the sweet minute Prince Eric embraces the huge kiss with Ariel– just for an even larger splash to mess up the ambiance. Sha-la-la-la-la-la.

Directed by Rob Marshall and out in theaters May 26, this long-awaited adjustment of Disney’s traditional 1989 movie stars Grown-ish‘s Halle Bailey– likewise of Chloe x Halle popularity– and her angelic voice as Ariel. Newbie Jonah Hauer-King uses the crown as Prince Eric, while Melissa McCarthy enters Ursula’s arms and Daveed Diggs handles Sebastian’s claws.

In the unique opening night clip above, you’ll capture Sebastian and Scuttle, voiced by Awkwafina, carefully motivating our shy prince to, as the tune name recommends, kiss the lady. The scene has to do with as romantic as it can be for a Disney film: carbonated water, hanging vines, swoon-worthy tunes, and a spirited touch of the hand.

This clip is specifically enjoyable for fans since up previously– aside from a quick peek of Ariel conserving Prince Eric’s life in the main trailer– we have not actually seen them connect with each other.
