Halle Bailey leans into Javier Bardem as the two share a sweet moment at the premiere of The Little Mermaid held at Parque Toreo on Thursday (May 11) in Mexico City.
The on-screen father and daughter duo walked the ocean blue carpet as they promoted their new live action Disney movie, which will be out in theaters on May 26.
Ahead of a Q&A panel at the screening, Halle was seen meeting several young fans of the Disney princess she portrays.
In a recent interview with EW, Halle opened up about how long it took to perfect that iconic hair flipping shot that you see in the trailer for the movie.
“That scene was so fun to do. It was definitely hard, though, because my hair was really, really heavy,” she revealed. “I have my locs, which are my favorite thing. I’ve had my locs since I was 5. It feels like wool when it’s wet. So it gets heavier. It kind of almost doubles the weight when they’re heavy.”
However, it wasn’t just her locs that she was wearing, there was also an additional wig that was woven in.
“It was just a lot of hair on my head,” Halle added. “So whenever I would get in the water, it would be heavy. So that one scene, it was really funny: that whole day we were trying to get it right, get it right, and finally they got a take that they really liked.”
FYI: Halle is wearing a Georges Chakras dress and Dena Kemp earrings.
