    35 years after the original animated film came out. Jodi must be so proud of her daughter, Delaney.

    See? They could’ve casted Benson’s daughter in the live action film!

      I literally said before I clicked on this that “I bet there’s gonna be a comment saying that her daughter should’ve played Ariel in the live action film instead” And what do you know? Never fails.

    They should’ve had her play Ariel in the live action film. Not because I don’t like Halle Bailey, but because it would’ve been merely a fun tribute.

      I loved Halle as Ariel, but I do think having Delaney would’ve been a beautiful tribute. I wish Halle got to voice/play an original princess, maybe in the future.

    Wait! If she’s qualified to play Ariel on Broadway, THEN WHY DIDN’T SHE GET CASTED TO PLAY THE NEW ARIEL IN THE LIVE ACTION DISNEY FILM???!!!!!😠😠😠😠😠 That would have made a much bigger impact for the audience!😫😫😫

    I'd heard of The Little Mermaid on Broadway before but I think this is an offical show.
    Esspecially if it's starting the daughter of Jodi Benson herself.

    • @molls127
      @molls127 5 месяцев назад +1

      it's not being produced by Disney if that's what you mean. it's available for licensing for local theatres as well as a few school versions. it is the Broadway production minus the rollerskates 😂

      I figured maybe not but wish it was though.
      And you're right about the skates.
      😄
      And I'd notice Scuttle is a puppet instead of a costume.
      I like that.
      Funny thing about most Disney Broadway shows is they all have bird characters but they're all played as costumes except Zazu from the Lion King.
      I don't know if it's a fresh idea but I think it'd be nice to see all the bird characters in these shows played as a puppet like Zazu.
      Not only is the puppet master the soul of the puppet but they can be dressed to look as what the birds would be in human form sort of.
      (If you're confused let me know.)
      😅
      But I bet Jodi's daughter has a voice just as pretty as hers.
      If things get better for Disney, I think it'd be an amazing thought if she plays her own character one day and traditional too.

      No, Delaney clearly has talent on her own.
      If you want an example of nepotism in action, look at the infamous "North West as young Simba at the Hollywood Bowl" debacle from a couple months ago.
