The Little Mermaid release is the second teaser and it shows clues about what the final product will look like. It is first aired at the Super Bowl and an hour ago it got uploaded on YouTube. As usual Halle Bailey’s voice is glory for the ears and that’s one of the reasons why she got the role. People who are mad about “Ginger Deletion” for the sake of diversity can calm down because Ariel remains a Ginger. Red hair might be more common to Caucasians but Red Haired Black and Asian People exist. Five months ago, Disney released the First Teaser and it got 27,229,002 views and the reaction of people is polarizing. Some are happy because of the diversity and inclusion as many black girls can see themselves being a Disney Princess. Then there are purist fans who want Ariel to remain white and ginger. The first teaser trailer has 3.4 Million dislikes vs. 1.2 Million likes. Kudos to Halle Bailey for not letting the hate bother her.

When a work of fiction becomes public domain, it can be used in any form of media production. That includes books, movies, and television shows. To use these characters in any medium, you do not need a license from the Estate.Their creators had been dead for at least 70 years.There are no longer any legal heirs to the property, so the licenses are not renewed. You may have noticed that the most recent Disney Princesses are all new characters if you’ve been paying attention. This is because Disney has stopped using fairy tale characters. The company does not have exclusive rights to use them. So their competitions can make their own versions. Because they belong to the people, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and Rapunzel can be recreated by anyone. However, Disney owns Merida, Tiana, Moana, Raya, and Elsa because they were conceived by Disney. Therefore, you cannot use more modern characters. Since Disney doesn’t own the rights for Snow White, The Rock Band Rammstein made a music video a decade ago

Public domain is the status of characters like Huckleberry Finn, Zorro, Cinderella, and Sherlock Holmes. Their creators passed away over 70 years. That means they do not belong to a family or company anymore. Once a character reaches this status, Every Filmmaker can make their own interpretation of them without any consequences. We have a Winnie the Pooh horror movie and a movie where Zorro is gay. Batman almost became Public domain in 2013 and 2014. Thanks to Disney holding on to Mickey Mouse, it got extended. Disney lobbied for a law extending the public domain from 50 to 70 years. Who would have thought a Rival company saved them from being available for everyone? Batman and Superman will become Public Domain in a decade and two years. That means anyone can make their version of them. Disney will take advantage of that and put them in Marvel comics and MCU. Countries worldwide will also make their interpretations without fear of a lawsuit. It would be best if you did not utilize any
