The "Mermen" From "The Little Mermaid" Are Going Viral Because Disney Really Nailed This One
A couple of weeks ago, people lost their shit when they found out Flounder wasn't a cute lil' yellow fish in The Little Mermaid live-action remake.
This is the new Flounder:
Hi.
This week, I'm happy to say that it appears the live-action reboot got something *really* right.
That something is the "mermen."

I did a little digging, and it appears that Jacob Maynard is, in fact, a "merfolk."
There are also a ton of stories on his IG from Sardinia, where the movie was filmed.
Anyway, I'm not mad about it!
And everyone seems to be pretty happy about it, too.
