- Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs - December 21, 1937. Not only does Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs hold the title of Walt Disney's first full-length feature film, but the fairytale is the first animated film ever produced in the United States.
- Cinderella - February 15, 1950. Despite Disney's success with Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, the next Disney Princess film, Cinderella, wasn't released until more than a decade later but to just as much financial and critical success as its 1930s predecessor.
- Sleeping Beauty - January 29, 1959. Disney's final princess movie of the 1950s and the Walt Disney era surprisingly wasn't as successful as its royal predecessors.
- The Little Mermaid - November 17, 1989. Due to Sleeping Beauty's disappointing performance and Walt Disney's death in 1966, Disney didn't release another princess movie until 1989, reviving both the genre and Walt Disney Animation.

Marshall’s film opens on a more adult note than its animated predecessor, kicking off with an epigraph attributed to “Little Mermaid” author Hans Christian Andersen’s original (and decidedly more downbeat) 1837 fairy tale: “But a mermaid has no tears, and therefore she suffers so much more.” For Marshall, using that line was all about setting an ea...
Beefing up their feature also allowed Marshall and screenwriter Magee to build in a handful of new songs, including one that might surprise audience members, if only because it’s something that should have existed all along: a song for Eric. “We realized, of course, Eric had no song in the original,” Marshall said. “I don’t know anything about him!...
Here’s another song-and-dance surprise: Ariel only has one song in the original animated film. One! “Our lead actor in the piece had onesong in the animated film,” Marshall said. “Ariel has ‘Part of Your World’ and the reprise, and that’s it. I thought, that’s insane. She needs another song! I want to understand and hear what she feels specifically...
After a mute Ariel lands in Prince Eric’s kingdom and is kindly taken in by the royal family and their staff, Marshall and Magee wanted the chance to add more texture and dimension to the would-be lovers’ growing bond. Before the pair head out to visit the kingdom (which ends with the iconic “Kiss the Girl” sequence), Ariel and Eric find themselves...
In the film’s third act, Ariel’s wacky pal Scuttle (voiced by Awkwafina) is tasked with delivering some important information to the mermaid and her faithful crab Sebastian (voiced by Daveed Diggs). But, given Scuttle’s inability to accurately communicate, the message gets a bit muddled. Armed with a new song from Menken and Miranda (“The Scuttlebu...
Speaking of Scuttle…while the new look of some of Ariel’s pals has already been widely debated, Marshall was eager to explain why he switched not just the appearance of Scuttle, but her actual species. This time around, Scuttle isn’t a squawking seagull, she’s a diving bird, another kind of seabird known as a gannet. “I wanted to make it that Ariel...
