Expectations are high for the film, and cast member Daveed Diggs has nothing but praise for his co-star. “I just think that Halle is just the perfect choice for Ariel,” he told HollywoodLife EXCLUSIVELY. “Everyone is going to fall in love with her immediately. She is so, so good. Her voice is not of this world. The things she can do vocally is something — I have never heard anything like it.”
