Though is not finalized yet, Melissa McCarthy is currently in early discussions to play the iconic sea witch in the remake based on a new report from Variety.

The movie will be directed by Mary Poppins Returns director Rob Marshall but the film has yet to receive a release date.

Ursula has always been a fan-favourite villain, often ranked in the list of top Disney villains and recognizable with her two evil eel sidekicks and iconic laughter.

Zendaya and Harry Styles (also Shawn Mendes) have also been rumoured to play Ariel and Prince Eric in the live-action remake in previous reports.

Now we can’t wait to see who the official cast under the sea (starts singing) will be! We pitch Liam Neeson as Poseidon.
