For those less familiar with the beloved tale, The Little Mermaid follows Ariel, the youngest daughter of King Triton who is defiant and determined to find out more about the world beyond the sea. While visiting the surface, she falls for Prince Eric, who also longs to expand his horizons beyond the world he knows.

While mermaids are forbidden to interact with humans, Ariel makes a deal with the sea witch Ursula for a chance to experience life on land, placing her life and her father’s crown in jeopardy. Among the platforms fans are currently able to access the film are Apple TV, Prime Video, and Vudu.
