Jacob Tremblay in Talks To Join Live Action 'Little Mermaid' Movie

Jacob Tremblay might be heading underwater to play Flounder in The Little Mermaid!

According to THR, the young star is in talks to play the fish friend of Ariel.

Meanwhile, Crazy Rich Asians star Awkwafina is in talks to play Scuttle, the seagull friend of the red-headed princess.

As we all know, the original animated movie, which is based on Hans Christian Andersen‘s story, centers on Ariel who yearns to be human after she falls in love with a prince. Ariel makes a deal with Ursula, who grants her wish but takes her voice.

There are also talks with Melissa McCarthy to play Ursula, but singer Lizzo also wants a shot at the villainous role.
