The characters you know and love from “The Little Mermaid” are transforming for a preschool audience.
Disney Jr.’s “Ariel” — which is set to premiere on June 27, 2024 — is inspired from the Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale as well as Walt Disney’s 1989 animated movie and 2023 live-action feature film.
