I don't really care about this though tbf, most comic book heroes have multiple incarnations often with gender-swap and different ethnic groups, Ariel on the other hand is a character from a traditional European fairy tale. It bothers me more to see Tom Cruise as "the last samurai" than some random modern comic book character with slightly off skin color.
Tom Cruise wasn't the last samurai in that film. He witnessed the last samurai, Katsumoto, played by Ken Watanabe.
It's confusing because Tom Cruise is on all the posters.
