Overview

The Little Mermaid is a 2023 American musical fantasy film directed by Rob Marshall and distributed by Walt Disney Pictures. The film is a live-action adaptation of Disney's 1989 animated film, which is loosely based on the 1837 fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen. The story follows a mermaid princess who is the youngest and most defiant of King Triton's daughters. Ariel longs to find out more about the world beyond the sea and visits the surface, where she falls for the dashing Prince Eric. Because mermaids are forbidden to interact with humans, Ariel makes a bargain and a deal with the evil sea witch, Ursula, to trade her beautiful voice for human legs to become human and discover the world above water, giving her a chance to impress a prince. The screenplay was written by Jane Goldman and David Magee, with new songs co-written by lyricist Lin-Manuel Miranda and Alan Menken.
