Amorphous Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 Do people realize that Zendaya... legitimately, as much as I like her - could not even possibly fit the bill with her voice? Have y'all heard her sing live? I really do enjoy her work and even though she could pull off some light songs, she does not have the stamina for that role at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they filming only Dune Pt 1 now or both movies back to back? Chani is barely in Pt 1 but a lot in Pt 2. so if they film Pt 2 right after she may have scheduling conflict.

This is the legitimately the only song of hers I know. It has a purpose but it's not Ariel. I just realized I forgot about Greatest Showman.

I don't care how much money Legendary/WB burn with that project, it sounds so incredible that I hope it's not left incomplete. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Prime Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 4 minutes ago, filmlover said: Come to think of it Harry Styles would actually be perfect for Eric if he gets it. The character was mostly bland in the original and it's not like it would ask much from him acting-wise. Not Chalamet, but I'd be okay with Harry. But if this goes to Noah Centipede or whatever his name is.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep away. Nolan jumpstarted Timothee Chalamet's career with Interstellar and now has kicked off Styles' acting career with Dunkirk. Nolan's impact is REAL. @MrPink This is Homeland slander Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minnale101 Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 I have no idea who this actress is but I had no idea who the Aladdin main characters actors were hoping movie is good. Ariel is my GF favourite Disney chapter whether she’s white or black it don’t matter. Aslong she has the same characteristics as Ariel had in original Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 we can debate the merits of this casting all we like but i just want to say that it truly does not matter. i've never seen her in anything so i can't comment but her level of acting talent is irrelevant. no one will care. the guy who played aladdin was bad, the kid in the jungle book was bad, emma watson in beauty and the beast was bad, mia wasikazoo in alice in wonderland was bad. Nobody cares! 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
