As I told you a month or two ago, this foreign born former boy bander who sometimes acts wasn’t offered a role in a Disney remake.

There was nothing for him to turn down.

Harry Styles explains why he turned down the role of Prince Eric in The Little Mermaid

With his floppy hair and handsome good looks, Harry Styles would have made the perfect Prince Eric in the live-action remake of The Little Mermaid.

The singer, 25, was in talks with Disney over appearing as Ariel’s love interest in the 1990 classic film, but turned down the role.

And while fans were left disappointed at the news, he recently revealed on Capital Breakfast it just wasn’t meant to be.

During a video chat with presenters Roman Kemp and Sonny-Jay, the former One Direction star admitted he met with director Rob Marshall but didn’t take the role because of “a few things.”

Roman asked: “When The Little Mermaid was about, you were trending [on Twitter] because you were playing the part of Eric, what happened? Did you turn it down? Did you even audition? What’s the deal?”

“I had, you know, a meeting with Rob Marshall the director, who is the most wonderful man, he’s great,” Harry replied. “And it was just, honestly, it was just a few things.”

He added: “It just, it wasn’t… erm… I think it’s gonna be amazing, obviously it’s an amazing film, and I can tell Roman’s watching how I’m kind of worming.” – Source
