Desperate to join the human world, Ariel makes a deal with Ursula the sea witch – Ariel will give her her beautiful singing voice for three days and in exchange for turn her into a human for that time, if Ariel does not receive the kiss of love from the prince then  she will turn back into a mermaid and and belong to the witch.

  14. Riley Watts

    My name is Riley Watts and I am 13 years old. I have many hobbies, which include acting, singing, writing, reading, and learning. I have always admired Ariel for her kind and loving spirit. She has been my favorite Disney princess as long as I can remember. I would love to play her role (or any role in the Little Mermaid). I think I would be a good fit for Ariel because like Ariel, I have a desire to explore the great unknown, and hopefully someday meet my prince. I like to think of myself as a good actress, I’ve been in only three plays, but am plenty capable of becoming a different character. I would like to be apart of this movie because, as the great Leonardo Dicaprio once said, “I believe I was planted here to be a vessel for acting.”

    Hello, and thank you for your time spending on reading this. My name is Enrique Torres i am 17 years old i am from a Mexican race from Mexico. The things i do for living is school, work, sing , and act. I love to sing as much as i like to act. Iv been on stage two times, first time in middle school for the schools play called “A bag full of fables” and my character was the fox and it was a great experience being a character and act for everyone. Second time was in High school at a talent show where i dance. Let me tell you why i like acting. Acting i do everywhere mostly and the funny thing about it, is that they don’t know that am acting and me being a character in this movie would be an awesome. The little mermaid is a creative Disney movie that i think its a well taught movie. But sure not enough experience of acting but you need to start somewhere hopefully somewhere is here. So hopefully i could be one person you are looking for. Thank you for your time.

  24. Janelle Calderon

    Hey guys! My name is Janelle Calderon and that is about all you need to know right (; … Lol just kidding! But honestly I would love to be a part of this new production! All of these live action movies coming out in these past years have been awesome . I loved Maleficent so I can only imagine how amazing The Little Mermaid live action movie would be!! ( enter 5 heart eyes emojis here) I am 20 years old and live in California . I consider myself a good candidate for this film because I , myself, am a mermaid . The Little Mermaid is definitely my favorite Disney film , and I live and breathe all ocean life . I definitely believe I was a mermaid in another life so I even tend to call myself Janelleyfish from time to time. .lol but any part in the film would be such a blessing because I’m definitely not a red head with blue eyes ( tear tear). I took acting classes when I was younger and did some plays in high school but I consider myself a natural performer . I am a college student still trying to find myself in this world and although I have backed away from my acting dreams for the past years I honestly believe my future is in performing . That is all I can see myself doing and I want to try and pursue that because without it I don’t know who I am or who else I could be and any opportunity will get me that much closer to my dream! I want to be the next Selena in mermaid form! Lol

    Hello, my name is Annabel and though if have little professional experience performing
    I would be sorry if I did not at least post here and let you decide for yourselves whether or
    Not you would be interested in me. I am 20 years old, blonde haired, blue-eye woman. 5’7 roughly 137 lbs. I’ve
    Have some singing and acting experience, but what really caused me to post is that singing and
    Acting is what I love. I revel in the chance to make myself into someone else and get to know them. On top of that, the little mermaid, like for most 90s kids, is one of my favorites ( in fact I pretty much adore all disney movies). I thank you for your consideration.

  28. Brian Rhodes

    I am a 6 foot black male that has curly (not nappy) hair. I weigh around 152 lbs and people tell me I have a great smile :). also I am 18. I came across these casting pages reminiscing on my life and schoolwork and just had the feelings everyone gets at one or more points in their life. “I want to be famous”… ” I want to be known” … “I want to be a millionaire” but this time instead of going back to studying I decided I might as well try something. “Just fill out a simple application and hope me life changes” is what I told myself. The fact that our life has a degree plan as soon as we exit our mothers womb sickens me a little. of course the 1% got out of it… but we are all raised the same. go to school (which I am currently in college), Obtain a degree in something you like but do not love(computer programming was my option) then live your life as an average and for the most.. repetitive person. I DO NOT want to be average which is the main reason why computer science is my major. second reason is because I just plain like programming (I plan to make apps and such). I can go on and on but I’m going to get straight to the point I see this as a wonderful and fun opportunity to build a career upon. I will admit I do not have ANY experience acting but Danny Porush did not have any experience in stocks before he met Jordan Belfort. With that being said… If given the opportunity It will be a done deal for me to devout all of my effort (would not want to go back to being average Joe).

  29. Jenna Bienstock

I am part of my high school’s Thespian troupe and last year at the Thespian competition a large group musical (She’s in Love from The Little Mermaid on Broadway) received superior at district level and excellent at state level (which is very hard to do). I would be honored to be a part of another adaptation of The Little Mermaid.

  40. Michelle Loftus

    After reading some of the replies above, I’m afraid I don’t have a chance to earn the privilege of being a part of “The Little Mermaid.” I am older – 39 years old to be exact – and have no true acting experience. I have just always LOVED the story of Ariel and have yearned to be an extra in a movie…in fact, it’s on my bucket list! LOL! I am truly serious though, and would love the opportunity to experience being on a movie set, and now, especially, to be a part of my favorite movie of all time…the Liitle Mermaid. What a joy it would be! Thank you for reading this and for even considering me!

  44. Rebecca Daly

    The Little Mermaid was my favorite Disney movie for as long as I can remember. The mere thought of a live action is spectacular!

    I’ve got no experience, but many people tell me I’d be great on set, I’m very outgoing and love to act things out. Creativity is only another plus to being me.

    I have adhd and it’s not as much of a hindrance as people say… I’m kind of random as well but that seems like it would help in a movie setting, filming the end or middle before the beginning etc.

    When I was young I had the opportunity to be an extra in the ever so well known Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets but my parents were scared of sending their only child to Britain for the shooting of the film, so I’ve always had the desire to have that opportunity again!

    My name is Becca Daly, no relation to any other!
    I’m 22 years old on the 25th of September
    I have three beautiful kids and a loving husband who love Disney movies and re-enacting them together
    Moving around is not an issue for my family, in fact it’s a longing shared throughout our household
    I’m very short, a mere 4’11 and 100 pounds
    Very athletically built, I love running!
    Strawberry blonde hair naturally, though it’s not the length I would like and deep brown eyes, nearly black some say.
    I don’t drink or smoke anything, and really dislike the idea entirely
    I love meeting new people and discovering new things!
    I’ve got a soft spot for animals, especially horses and foxes
    I know the chances of this happening are slim to none but at least I can say I’ve been able to try!
    Thank you sui much for reading and considering me. My eyes are always on my email!

  52. Michelle Burke

    Hello, my name is Michelle Burke. Of all of the Disney stories that can and could have been brought to the movie screen this story is the most fun and entertaining. I associate one of the most fun in high school with being in The Little Mermaid musical. The story was fun, the characters memorable, and the music lively. I would love the chance to do it once again on a large scale. I can see Ursula revisioned. I can’t wait to see where Sofia Coppola takes this story.

  53. Francesca Cesaro

    Hello,
    My name is Francesca Cesaro, and I would love to be considered for any role in this film. Ever since I was a kid, I loved The Little Mermaid and the work of Jodi Benson. Her voice was magic on screen for a Disney kid. It would be a dream to be a part of something like this.
    I’m currently a first-year college student at a community college in Northern Virginia (Northern Virginia Community College). In my high school career, I was involved in upwards of twenty performances on stage, whether they were a high school show or a show put on by my church. I am very acquainted with the theatre and have been involved in all aspects from technical design, set design, directing, makeup design, and, my favorite, acting! I have taken classes in theatre and film since sixth grade and have always thought my place was on screen, even with my love for live theatre. It would be an honor to be considered in anyway. Thank you for your time.

  54. lisa

    I very much enjoy Ms. Coppola’s work, and Mr. Fellner.
    I am a good and strong swimmer, often compared to Ursula Andress.
    Is this story to have the original ending? Where the little Mermaid dances into the sea after rejection? I had this book as a child and read it over and over; it was very poignant and could be a fabulous movie.
    My talent is varied and I have been on many stages in many roles.
    Thank you.

  56. Margaret Baldwin

    Hi! My name is Maggie Baldwin, and I would love to be a part of this production! The Little Mermaid is one of my all time favorite stories, and it is also one of the first movies I ever saw. When I was younger, I remember just loving the character of Ariel, who is smart, funny, and not afraid to stand up for something. I wanted to be exactly like her when I grew up. Today, I still listen to the movie soundtrack, and although I realized a long time ago that I can’t be a mermaid when I grow up, I am still inspired by the story and music! And I guess that’s the real reason I would like to be in this movie. I really want a chance to inspire other little girls who are just like I was, looking up at their TV screens dreaming about mermaids, and true love, and what it’s like to be a princess. That’s really the heart of why I want to be in The Little Mermaid.
    I am thirteen years old, and live in Arlington VA. I am an extremely talented singer and actress, with lots of theatre experience. I have been in theatre since first grade, and some of my more recent shows include Betty Proctor in The Crucible, The Countess’ Messenger in Henry IV, Hippolyta in A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Mrs. Sowerberry in Oliver! And Alice in Alice in Wonderland. I have also been a model for Keegan Theatre in DC, and take weekly voice lessons from Elizabeth Klugel, a retired opera singer.

  57. kally taft

    Hey there! Just to begin I have always been fascinated by mermaids & all they “entail” pun intended. I am from Texas & as most people know it gets hotter than the devils pitchfork so I have spent many of summers swimming & perfecting my mermaid like alter ego. My name is Kally Taft, I have never acted in front of a camera, however I have former training in drama classes in college. I love throwing people off by mildly acting over surprised or upset, I just like to see how many people’s goats I can’t get. I would love to have this opportunity to change my life, at the moment I bartend in Fort Worth Tx & would like a change of pace, & this sounds like a ton of fun & hard work which is exactly what I try to achieve no matter what I’m doing in life. Thank you for your time, I look forward to hearing from you.

  59. Audrianna Johnson

    Hi! I’m Audrianna Johnson but I usually just go by Audri! Well unlike everyone else that’s commented that seem to have prior acting or auditioning experience, I have none. However that doesn’t mean I’m not fit for the job! I’m currently a full time college student majoring in biology in a small town in Tennessee and to be honest I would probably be the last person on earth to ever be thought of as wanting to act in a film. The Little Mermaid was always a classic in my family. When I was younger watching all the Disney films would be all my cousins and I would do. I think I’d be a good choice for the job because it would be something new. A girl who would never think about going on stage or in front of an audience who completely blows away and stuns everyone with her capabilities to actually do just that. Well anyway, thank you for taking the time to read and consider me! It never hurts to try for anything right? Have a great day!

  66. Brittany Easler

    Hello!
    My name is Brittany Easler and I would be interested in participating in an audition for The Little Mermaid live action film, or any film in store for my age. At the moment, I am homeschooled, which allows me to be readily available for anything you might need me for. I am a determined individual and I believe I can be someone you would be interested to work with.

    I am enrolled in dance classes, and not particularly interested in singing, but I will pursue singing if that is what is requested of me. I have also competed in dance competitions. I understand how acting can be highly significant in a person’s life, and can be very influential. I live a comfortable life, with family that can keep me grounded if things become rough. Acting is an industry I have always wanted to pursue, along with modeling. I also put my education in a high position, and believe it is important to keep up with to fulfill my dreams in acting, or any job interest.

    I don’t to be just another actor in the shadows. I have never auditioned for a film, which is why I am here on this website. But, I have participated in a recent Shakespheare play, and have also participated in a Debate Club, in the area of interpretations, which are basically rehearsed 10 minute skits or dramatic acts based on a book/ book-film. You perform on stage, and as a part of a debate competition. I hope that I can persuade you to cobsider me, because I can work hard to be the actor you are searching for. I analyze every detail of criticism, and use everything given to grow as an actress. I hope I can be a part of this opportunity.

    Name: Brittany Nicole Easler
    Age: 15
    Hair: Pixie cut length, chocolate brown
    Eyes: Blue

    Weight: 145 lbs
    I’m Courtney. I have curly brown hair, brown eyes, and olive skin. I’ve loved Disney for as long as I can remember, and to this day I still clean my house to the Little Mermaid soundtrack. The thought of being apart of the Disney legacy would be one of the best things that ever happened to me. And knowing that I helped the younger generation get to know one of the classics is just a bonus. I have a lot of experience with stage acting, and even a little with film. I have the utmost confidence that I would excel at any role you put me in. You’d never regret adding me to your cast list.

    Thanks!

It would be a privilege to get the chance to work in this project. The reason i love this fairytale is because it shows how everyone has a chance of finding love, including a mermaid. Working in a movie, about your all time favorite fairytale come to life, is a dream. If i get a role (extra) in this movie i will have a huge dedication to the character and will try my best on not letting the production down.

  73. Sara Beck

    Dear Casting Director,
    As I read all the other submissions, I’m probably not your typical applicant. I’m 46 years old and I’ve been a big fan of Disney Movies, especially The LIttle Mermaid! On my bucket list? Being an extra in a feature presentation. I was an extra in the Final Season but the scene was cut. Please help me cross this off my list! I’m a fun-loving, mother of twin girls. I want to show them that anything is possible, if you just believe! I helped organize a Guiness World Record in memory of my Mom. In October, I’m organizing a trip to Washington, D.C. to honor my Dad and his two brothers, who all fought in WWII. I know I’ll never win an academy award but I’d LOVE to play an extra in your film in memory of my nephew, who died in a car accident. He was destin to be a great actor but his life was cut short. It would mean the world to me to be able to tell my sister, I did it for Jake! The other thing is that I won’t need to be paid…being in the film would be payment enough!

    Thank you for your consideration!

  74. Krista Weirich

    Well to start off, my name is Krista and I’m from NW Ohio. I’m 25 years old, 5’forFor7″, long blonde hair and dark blue eyes. I remember watching The Little Mermaid when it firstso came out on Vhs, many young kids don’t even know what a Vhs tape is. Anyways, I loved the movie growing up and I still do. It’s a part of my child hood and to get to be a part of it as an adult would be amazing. My dream is to be an actress and due to unforseen circumstances, it just never happened. I’m not making excuses and i don’t have any acting experience but would love the opportunity to at least try. I’m a firm believer that hard work and dedication and dreams will get you where you want to go. So if I do sound like someone that would fit what you are looking for and if you are willing to take a chance on someone, I’m the woman for you.

It would be an honor to be considered for a role in this adaptation of the movie. Below, you can find my basic appearance information.
