Netflix describes Unfrosted as “a tale of ambition, betrayal, sugar, and menacing milkmen” taking place in Michigan in 1963. Sworn cereal rivals Kellogg’s and Post embark on another quest to prove their domination by creating a pastry that will change the face of breakfast.

Unfrosted will mark Seinfeld’s feature film directorial debut, and he also co-wrote the script alongside Spike Feresten, Barry Marder, and Andy Robin. Seinfeld told Netflix that he initially joked about making a Pop-Tarts film with Feresten, but they realized that its origin story was actually quite intriguing once they started doing research and learning more about its history.

In addition to Seinfeld in the lead role, the star-studded cast of Unfrosted also includes Melissa McCarthy, Jim Gaffigan, Amy Schumer, James Marsden, Jack McBrayer, Bobby Moynihan, Maria Bakalova, Max Greenfield, Bill Burr, Dan Levy, Christian Slater, and Hugh Grant.

Unfrosted: The Pop-Tart Story will start streaming on Netflix on May 3.

The Little Mermaid tells a familiar tale of a beautiful and spirited young mermaid Ariel, who longs to find out more about the world beyond the sea. After being smitten by Prince Eric, she strikes a dangerous deal with the evil sea witch, Ursula, which gives her a chance to experience life on land, while also putting her life under the sea in jeopardy.

The new teaser is just 30 seconds long, but that was just enough time to build the hype for this promising live-action remake. The short clip opens with Halle Bailey delivering a powerful rendition of the song called “Wish”, before giving us the first look at Jonah Hauer-King as Prince Eric and Melissa McCarthy as Ursula.

The Little Mermaid will also star Javier Bardem, Art Malik, Noma Dumezweni, Lorena Andrea, and Simone Ashley, with Daveed Diggs, Jacob Tremblay, and Awkwafina. The film was directed by Rob Marshall, and it will be released on May 26.
