Six-time Grammy winning country music artist Kacey Musgraves has reportedly met about a supporting role in the live-action adaptation of Disney’s “The Little Mermaid” says The Disinsider.
According to the report the singer is being eyed to play Vanessa, the human form of the villainous sea witch Ursula (Melissa McCarthy) takes on in an attempt to trick Ariel (Halle Bailey). They do add they are unable to confirm whether the meetings went anywhere so Musgraves could have passed.
The upcoming film also stars Jonah-Hauer King as Prince Eric, Javier Bardem as King Triton, Jacob Tremblay as Flounder, Daveed Diggs as Sebastian, and Awkwafina as Scuttle. The production was forced to halt due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Lin-Manuel Miranda will also compose original music along with Alan Menken.
