"The Little Mermaid" new set photos show the prince getting wet and the crew has an outbreak of the new coronavirus

According to the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera, a new coronavirus outbreak has occurred in the crew of Disney's live-action film "The Little Mermaid" being filmed in Sardinia, Italy. Fifteen people have tested positive, including the Delta variant. Many people on the island have been quarantined.

Despite the outbreak of the epidemic on the set of "The Little Mermaid", it seems that the production has not stopped yet. Now, new photos from the set have been exposed, with Prince Eric, played by Jonah Hauer-King, making a sexy wet appearance, the original new character Carlotta, played by Noma Dumezweni, making her debut, and the Little Mermaid's stand-in also appearing.

The film "The Little Mermaid" is adapted from the classic Disney animation of the same name and started filming earlier this year. Black singer Halle Bailey plays the mermaid Ariel, Jonah Hauer-King (2017 drama version of "Little Women") plays Prince Eric, Javier Bardem ("Pirates of the Caribbean 5") plays Ariel's father King Triton, Melissa McCarthy ("Spy") plays the villain Ursula, Jacob Tremblay ("Wonder Boy" and "Room") and Awkwafina ("Crazy Rich Asians" and "Ocean's 8") play Ariel's friends Flounder and Scuttle, and Daveed Diggs ("Hamilton" and "Wonder Boy") plays the red crab Sebastian.

The Little Mermaid movie is directed by Rob Marshall (Chicago, Memoirs of a Geisha, Into the Woods), written by Jane Goldman (Kingsman: The Golden Circle, X-Men: First Class), and will feature new songs by Lin-Manuel Miranda and legendary Disney composer Alan Menken.
