The Little Mermaid {Den lille havfrue}

”Why have not we an immortal soul?” asked the little mermaid mournfully. “I would give gladly all the hundreds of years that I have to live, to be a human being only for one day, and to have the hope of knowing the happiness of that glorious world above the stars.” “You must not think of that,” said the old woman; “we feel ourselves to be much happier and much better off than human beings.” “So I shall die,” said the little mermaid, “and as the foam of the sea I shall be driven about never again to hear the music of the waves, or to see the pretty flowers nor the red sun. ”

“Under The Sea is the most complicated production number we’ve ever done. There is one live actor and everything else is digitally created. We thought, how do we do this? How do we begin? And I remember thinking about Fantasia (1940). I thought of Walt Disney and I remembered when he did Fantasia, the Nutcracker Suite sequence, he used the Ballet Russes as a template. He used their bodies to help him create the dancing flowers or the snowflakes or the mushrooms. I thought we should work with a dance company. So we brought the Alvin Ailey company over to London to work with them to create this musical number and we asked them to actually replicate these different sea creatures and how they moved. So that our CGI artists would have a body to work from and to mold from. It was insanity in a way. But I will say, at the end of the day, having that beautiful dance company there with us and being able to work with actual dancers was really the key. I think that was the key to getting into this [musical number] and figuring it out.” - Rob Marshall THE LITTLE MERMAID (2023) Dir. Rob Marshall

HALLE BAILEY “The beautiful thing about this is I feel like Ariel has taught me so much about myself as Halle and I think the years I’ve been [filming The Little Mermaid] are very transformative years as a young woman. You’re still finding yourself. I’m still finding out who I am every single day, really. And these values and characteristics of Ariel, these traits of her that are strong, passionate, such drive that she has, her not being afraid… I really feel like I truly tried to adopt some of those values as Halle. When I wrapped [the movie] I truly felt like those stuck with me and I was a way different person than I was when I started filming on the first day.”
