Noma Dumezweni | Entertainment News, Photos, and Videos

We have our first photos of Halle Bailey and Jonah Hauer-King on The Little Mermaid set together!

The two co-stars, who play Ariel the Mermaid and Prince Eric, were seen shooting what appears to be an iconic scene on Tuesday (June 29) in Sardinia, Italy. Noma Dumezweni was also seen on set that day.

We cannot confirm, but fans seem to think the pair may have been filming “Kiss the Girl,” one of the famous scenes from the original Disney movie! “Kiss the Girl” happens when Prince Eric and Ariel go for a romantic boat ride together. The song is famously sung by Sebastian the Crab.

If you missed it, you can see the very first set photos that came in of Halle on the set of The Little Mermaid.

Two Harry Potter actresses – Katie Leung and Noma Dumezweni – are responding to J.K. Rowling‘s controversial tweets about transgender people.

The famed author tweeted her frustration after an article wrote that “gender non-binary persons menstruate.”

J.K. then reposted the article, and added her own commentary, “‘People who menstruate.’ I’m sure there used to be a word for those people. Someone help me out. Wumben? Wimpund? Woomud? She wrote further tweets that have been called out as transphobic.

Katie played the role of Cho Chang in the Harry Potter films, while Noma played the role of Hermoine in the stage play Harry Potter & the Cursed Child.
