The news comes on the same day as the highly anticipated streaming debut of "The Little Mermaid," Disney's live-action remake of its 1989 animated classic. The film, starring Halle Bailey as the mermaid Ariel, grossed more than $560 million at the box office.

On The Red Carpet spoke with Bailey about the movie: "I just feel so inspired and grateful and honored," she beamed. Melissa McCarthy, who plays the iconic evil sea witch Ursula, said, "If I don't give it everything I've got, I'll regret it for the rest of my life," about her big musical performance.



In addition to the film, Disney+ subscribers will also gain access to "The Little Mermaid" bonus content.

Wednesday also marks the season two premiere of "I Am Groot," which follows the antics of Baby Groot at "about age six or seven in human years," according to writer, director and executive producer Kirsten Lepore.
