Who Plays King Triton In The Little Mermaid 2023

King Triton is a central part of The Little Mermaid’s story, leading Disney’s live-action version to cast an established and well-known actor in the role. While Ariel’s interest in humans and the world beyond the oceans always existed, leading her to build an impressive collection of trinkets over the years in both the original The Little Mermaid and the longer live-action remake, it becomes a point of contention once King Triton discovers it, as he always forbade humans and merpeople from fraternizing with each other. Without King Triton, there’s no character for Ariel to row against, kickstarting her adventure in both the 1989 animated feature and its 2023 redo.
