These next few months need to fly by because fans can. not. wait. to see the live-action remake of The Little Mermaid, especially now that they've been teased with a glimpse of Melissa McCarthy as the film's villain Ursula.
The buzz about the movie has been nonstop since we got our first peak of Halle Bailey as the film's lead, Ariel, and now we finally have an official trailer for Disney's much-anticipated release.
And at the very end of the trailer, Ursula can be heard wickedly laughing as she peaks from behind what appears to be one of her tentacles.
You can check out the trailer below.
McCarthy's appearance in the ad is only about two seconds long.
Blink and you'll miss it.
But it's enough to make fans absolutely lose it.
