Everything We Know About 'The Little Mermaid' Movie

As we inch closer and closer to the premiere of The Little Mermaid, there's more information starting to roll out about the film. For example, Disney just recently unveiled a new set of colorful posters for the cast, we've learned that Melissa McCarthy wanted the role of Ursula so bad that she begged director Rob Marshall for a shot, there's a newly-released Ariel doll that you can purchase via Amazon, and Disneyland guests will have the chance to interact with a live action Ariel throughout the month of May. We anticipate that many more updates will be rolling in over the next couple of weeks, so here's a refresher on everything you need to know prior to the premiere, including the release date, trailer, cast and more.
