Dina Denoire: The beauty almost played the Disney mermaid instead of Halle Bailey, but was eliminated for 1 reason

Although officially premiered globally, The Little Mermaid - The Little Mermaid is still the most controversial film of the Disney film studio's time.

The casting of actress Halle Bailey with a different appearance from the familiar image in the 1989 cartoon raised many questions, making many viewers bewildered. In fact, before Bailey was chosen, there were many names considered by the crew, including a beautiful female star that "caused a fever" below.

Ariel fish. This girl is Dina Denoire, born in 1998 and is German. In 2019, she participated in the audition to play the female lead Ariel but failed.

In the past time, Denoire's beauty has attracted the public's attention, becoming a "hot" topic on social networks and even being praised for being more charismatic than Halle Bailey. Not a professional actress, Dina Denoire is known as an internet star specializing in posting articles about fashion, beauty and daily life, earning high interaction. The 9X female star herself has a talent in singing, but it is difficult to compare with Bailey's strong and methodical voice.

Despite her beautiful voice and beauty, Dina Denoire was not chosen, and the incident was speculated to be related to A-list female singer Beyoncé. Metro UK has reported that Beyoncé has agreed to participate in the voice of the Lion King, in exchange for the role of Ariel to be given to Halle Bailey. Both Hailey and her sister Chloe were recruited by Beyoncé thanks to her singing talent on YouTube, then signed a contract with the singer's company Parkwood Entertainment.

In addition, in 2019, there was another popular actress who was also almost chosen to play the mermaid Ariel. That person is none other than the girlfriend of "Little Spider" Tom Holland - Zendaya. The youngest star ever to win an Emmy is said to have accepted an offer to play Ariel from Disney, but in the end only considered it, but did not accept it. Answering to Teen Vogue, Zendaya also confirmed "We will wait and see" but no firm confirmation.

In addition, recently, the "The Little Mermaid" crew has revealed many interesting behind-the-scenes stories of the film.

Accordingly, the process of creating the hair of the mermaid Ariel in the live-action version of The Little Mermaid is very feat. Sharing with Variety , Camille Friend - the head of the film's makeup department - revealed that she was tasked with creating a hairstyle that was both reminiscent of the original version and had to bring something new to the character.

"Halle's real hair is waist-length, so wearing a full wig would look silly. If you wrapped the wig around her braids, you wouldn't have to cut or re-dye them. We have can change color without changing the internal hair structure," Camille said.

She added: "We used three different shades of red. The exact number is unknown, but probably the team spent at least $150,000 because we had to redo it and take it apart. It was a wondrous process".

However, the difficulty multiplies with underwater shots. To create the wave-like effect, Camille Friend had to use the method of loosening the braids. In particular, in the scene where Ariel emerges from the sea and performs the legendary hair flip, the crew must use CGI technology to assist.
