8 Questions With The New Little Mermaid Star Andrej Pejic

 

 

I have been about forty-five percent happier every day ever since Sofia Coppola took the helm of the upcoming Little Mermaid adaptation. This movie is going to be epic. Like seriously though. Although the main power players in the film: Ariel, Ursula, Eric and Sebastian are yet to have confirmed actors, there is one gorgeous face set to take on the role of ‘Sister #4’.

Who the hell is Sister #4? – You may be wondering. It’s not the random mer-simbling that got me excited; it’s the androgynous model that was just cast as the mysterious character. Andrej Pejic will be taking on the role of one of Ariel’s lovely musically gifted sisters. Having a deep admiration for all that is androgynous; I’ve been a big fan of Andrej since he first stepped onto the catwalk at Jean Paul Gaultier’s show and think this is a perfect role him. After watching the intro scene to Disney’s The Little Mermaid about three times, (video below, your welcome) I decided what better time to see what inspires this gender bending upcoming sea star.
