1. [+1,656, -74] Imagine how bad it had to be for him to turn it down...
2. [+1,524, -63] Well the movie is basically begging itself to fail with the female lead, I doubt any male actor will want to take it up;;;
3. [+1,420, -295] Why would he want the role when his co-star is some fish looking kid ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ he'd be lucky if he didn't throw up during the kiss scene
4. [+178, -5] I recommend Jack Black for the prince. Let's get some variety for the male cast too and get some beer bellied ajusshi for it.
5. [+168, -6] Putting aside that she's black and all, she's just too ugly
6. [+133, -2] I'm honestly so upset, she just doesn't match the role for Ariel at all, aside from the fact that she's black and all
7. [+127, -3] I bet he would've accepted the movie if Ariel was someone like Amber Heard. We could've cast any other black woman for the role, someone sexy and charming like Beyonce or T-ara Banks, but this is just;;; why are her eyes so far apart?
8. [+123, -10] Let's not put down her looks, guys... this was just a miscast, is all....
9. [+109, -5] Stay true to the movie's vision and pick some ugly man for the male role too. Why cast a white man?
10. [+107, -4] I can already tell why he turned it down without knowing ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
11. [+89, -0] What's the point of a remake if you're not even going to follow the original? They could just have her star in another movie about mermaids instead... why Ariel ㅠㅠㅠㅠ this is ruining my childhood memories.
12. [+83, -1] ㅋㅋ It's hilarious to me that the movie is trying to promote diversity so they cast some nugu black princess but they're still sticking to the same stereotypical role of the handsome white prince for the male role. Why not cast a black prince or a South East Asian prince?
