Disney, which enthusiastically manufactures staged versions of classic cartoons, suffered a significant injury with its latest film.
An embarrassing accident has occurred in the casting choices of the Little Mermaid movie currently showing in cinemas.
According to The Sun magazine, Disney was going to hire handsome male models to play the mermen. After the release of the film, one of the hired background actors was revealed to be a porn star.
One of the inhabitants of the sea is actually a 24-year-old Italian model who has appeared in several porn films before her Disney role. The situation is not made easier by the fact that the model’s videos, even described as violent, can still be seen on various porn sites.
According to Brittilehti, Disney was not aware of the model’s background.

The revelation is embarrassing for Disney in the sense that the film is a remake of a well-known children’s film.
– They didn’t know about the videos of that model. The Little Mermaid is a hit children’s film, which makes the situation awkward, a source related to the film reveals.
Disney has not commented on the recent uproar about the choice of the supporting actor in question.
