The guy playing Eric is still white though, here is Jonah Hauer-King
If they think they're being so ground-breaking about having a black Ariel, I guess my question is, why not a black male too?
Is a black man not handsome enough to be Eric?
Or if they really want to break boundaries - why not make Eric an asian male, or perhaps a short ugly male of any ethnic group?
They know they can only push it so far before people revolt and don't buy it, so they are ultimately cowards.

they're just marking out about this black princess stuff though, but IMO instead of hijacking established redheads like Starfire/Ariel and making them into negresses, maybe they ought to make NEW chars like they did with Tiana in Frog Princess or Moana, those were both fun and it didn't feel cobbled together.
