The Little Mermaid - Zendaya
Disney acolytes and Zendaya fans alike got quite the surprise earlier this week, when rumors surfaced that the former child star and Disney darling had been offered the lead role of Ariel in the upcoming live-action adaptation of The Little Mermaid. Source close to Walt Disney Studios has told that Zendaya Coleman has been offered the role of Ariel in Disney’s upcoming live-action adaptation of the film. Lin-Manuel Miranda is working with Oscar winner & legendary Disney composer Alan Menken on the movie, which will be directed by Rob Marshall.

Zendaya , got her start on Disney, starring on Disney Channel sitcoms Shake It Up and K.C. Undercover. She starred in major blockbuster movies The Greatest Showman and Spider-Man: Homecoming.
Even though Zendaya & Disney have not confirmed publicly on-the role of Ariel , but that hasn’t stopped some disgruntled "Little Mermaid" fans from taking to Twitter to express their frustrations with the alleged casting
