My Take
Jonah Hauer-King is one of those actors who quietly builds a case for himself before most people realize it. He studied at Cambridge, which tells you something about the brain behind the charm, and he put in the work on prestige British television — Howards End, World on Fire — before Disney handed him the keys to Prince Eric in The Little Mermaid (2023). That's a role that could swallow a lesser actor whole, but he held his own opposite Halle Bailey with a warmth and genuine earnestness that made you root for the guy. He's not a scene-stealer; he's more of a steady, committed presence who makes the story work rather than himself. I think his best roles are still ahead of him.
