Julianne Moore and Michael Phelps in Disney's Year Of A Million Dreams "Fantasea"

Maybe you have already seen this recent photo which was released some time in April from Disney's Year of a Million Dreams portfolio.

This photo is called Fantasea and inspired by my favorite Disney character, Ariel of The Little Mermaid. Actress Julianne Moore portrayed the beloved heroine and World Champion swimmer Michael Phelps became a merman. Ariel sits on a rock under the sea while mermen and a mermaid swim by.

This photo was taken by Annie Leibovitz and captioned with “Where another world is just a wish away”.

P.S. I just can't resist the idea of posting this image in this blog.
