The new teaser trailer for Disney’s live-action remake of The Little Mermaid 2023 features an extended look at Halle Bailey’s Ariel – but a glimpse of a tentacle and Ursula’s (Melissa McCarthy) cackle has stolen the show.
Along with the titular mermaid flitting between shipwrecks and coral reefs, the trailer features Bailey’s rendition of “Part of Your World,” a look at a pufferfish – though it’s unclear if this is meant to be Flounder – and a glimpse of Ariel’s iconic smooch with Prince Eric (Jonah Hauer-King).
The most talked about moment, though, arrives after the trailer’s title card fades to black, and we hear a devious cackle, accompanied by purple skin, arched eyebrows, black eyeshadow and a deadly looking tentacle, all of which belong to beloved Little Mermaid villain, Ursula the Sea Witch.
