Get Jason Momoa for Eric, he'd be playing against type.

They shoulda just gotten Christian Bale for Ursula, they wouldn't need any CGI

Will skinny Ursula be cgi McCarthy.....

Ursula’s “Vanessa” form never looked anything like Ursula anyway, so it will almost certainly be a different actress. (Too bad they probably won’t be able to get away with having her have literally the same voice as Ariel like they could in animation.)

 

Actually, Ursula as Vanessa would be a perfect part for Gaga. Then everyone would be happy.

Vanessa will be played by another actress or Zendaya will play both only different hair color and slightly evil facial expression for Vanessa.

And kudos to getting in the "Should Have Cast a Drag Queen (Or Lady Gaga, the Closet Cis Woman Will Get To A Drag Queen" point before I could post it.  Was coming in her to do that.  100% agree.

Of course, the monkey's paw here would be that the only drag queen Disney would probably hire would be RuPaul, so...yeah, maybe there's a silver lining.

Excellent Point.  

 

Shangela and Alyssa are mainstream with Hollywood experience, but not enough.

Josh Gad will finally, officially be cancelled when he's cast to do a jamaican accent for Sebastian.

Melissa McCarthy as Ursula is actually perfect casting! She's gonna be a lot of fun in the role.

Melissa McCarthy is like Sandler 2.0 where she's a great actress who keeps doing lame schlock like this and The Happytime Murders

No.

I can completely see Awkwafina going "Ha, check this out, sis." and showing Ariel the Dinglehopper.

A realistic cgi Crab will be scary, no....

It's actually a decent comparison, imo.

Sebastian I'm curious who'll they get, I would like Tituss Burgess as he did the role in the Broadway stage version.

He would be a great choice but they probably want a bigger name to deliver the showstopping "Under the Sea" number. Also curious as to who they'll get for King Triton as well.

Triton, depends on who they cast as Ariel, they don't necessarily need a name, 

 

If they want a name for Sebastian, maybe Jamie Foxx? Bruno Mars is another choice certainly singing wise but not sure acting wise.

Jemaine Clement unless he doesn't want to be typecast as a crab
