In just a few weeks the new version of The little Mermaid of Disney. It is a real image version of the iconic princess Ariel released in 1989.
The announcement of the new movie Disney It has not transcended without controversy in between. From the beginning, the main criticism was aimed at the choice of Halle Bailey in the role of Ariel, since her race does not resemble that of the animated version of Disney.
Now, a new series of criticisms come from the least expected place. Mena Massoudthe actor who played Aladdin in version live-action directed by Guy Ritchie, harshly criticized the new Disney movie.
In recent days, the 31-year-old actor was forced to close his Twitter account after a series of negative comments against the new House of Mouse production.
“Our movie was unique in that audiences went to see it multiple times. It’s the only way we hit the billion dollar mark with our opening,” Mena tweeted. “My bet is The Little Mermaid doesn’t cross the billion mark, but it will definitely have a sequel,” the actor added.
Of course, his opinion was not well received by the fans, who were quick to reproach his attitude, forcing Massoud to have to deactivate his Twitter account.
“Sir, he’s bitter that the movie is doing so much better than Aladdin even though it’s not out yet,” one user tweeted on Twitter. “I loved Aladdin and it was literally in the top 5 of my favorite Disney remakes. Being pessimistic about a movie that hasn’t been released yet but has been praised by critics is just disappointing. I’m so disappointed in you,” another commented. .
“Mena Massoud being bitter and racist that Aladdin won’t have a sequel after all and The Little Mermaid is considered the best live action movie of Disney without being officially released,” said another through the little bird’s social network.
You have to remember that the movie live-action of Aladdin It premiered in 2019, and featured performances by Massoud as Aladdin, Will Smith as the Genie, and Naomi Scott as Princess Jasmine. Despite the success that the film obtained at the box office, Disney did not confirm the making of a sequel.
As to The little Mermaidthe film will hit theaters on May 25 and is expected to be one of the studio’s highest-grossing releases in 2023. The first reactions from critics have done nothing more than praise Bailey’s performances and the staging accomplished by director Rob Marshall, so fans are looking forward to its release.
