Halle Bailey made quite a splash at the London premiere of The Little Mermaid on Monday, where she, alongside her co-stars Jonah Hauer-King, Melissa McCarthy, Jacob Tremblay, Javier Bardem, Daveed Diggs, as well as director Rob Marshall, walked the blue carpet to promote their new movie.
Bailey held hands with Hauer-King for some of the photos.
The 23-year-old, who portrays Ariel in the live-action remake of the Disney classic, attended the premiere wearing a stunning custom white gown by Miss Sohee. The dress featured a shell-like neckline adorned with silver gems that paid homage to her character’s signature seashell bra, a sheer backless detail, and a mermaid-style train.
Styled by Nichole Good, Bailey paired the look with a crystal-embellished silver headpiece and pearl earrings.
The singer-turned-actress later took to social media to express her gratitude for the London premiere, saying “
big thank you London for celebrating our film tonight with us
10 more days.” She also shared a photo with her fans, saying “
who i do this for
.”
The Little Mermaid live-action will premiere in theaters on May 26.
