Sebastian (2023)

Sebastian is the tritagonist of the 2023 live action remake of The Little Mermaid.
He is a crab who is King Triton's majordomo instead of the royal court composer who has the unhappy task of having to watch Triton's youngest daughter Ariel. Sebastian witnesses Ariel falling in love with the human Prince Eric and making a deal with Ursula the sea witch. He has to bring them together to share true love's kiss to prevent the spell from becoming permanent because Ariel forgets that part of the contract.
He is voiced by Daveed Diggs, who also voiced Dos in Ferdinand, Cyborg in DC League of Super-Pets, and Spruce in Trolls Band Together.
==Personality==
Sebastian retains most of his personality from the original film. He grows tired of having to look out for Ariel. Though he often pushes Ariel to love life under the sea, Sebastian realizes she is miserable when they are on land. After this, Sebastian decides to help her by making Eric fall in love with her and enhance true love's kiss. 
==Physical appearance==
Sebastian is a crab with a Jamaican accent like his animated counterpart. He is red, his left claw is bigger than his right one, and he has ten legs instead of four.
==History==
After Ariel was late for the Coral Moon meeting, Sebastian is sent to retrieve her, much to his chagrin. He finds Ariel and Flounder communicating with Scuttle and scolds her for missing the meeting with her father and sisters. After Ariel and Triton have an argument that ends with the former swimming away, Sebastian talks about how Ariel needs constant supervision, prompting Triton to assign him for the job. 
When Ariel saves the life of Prince Eric, Sebastian notices that she has fallen in love with him. However, Scuttle comes in and Sebastian tells her to keep this a secret from the king. However, Scuttle forgets, causing Sebastian to mumble that he is a dead crab.
==Trivia==
*Unlike the original him, Sebastian's concert from the original is replaced with a Coral Moon meeting for the remake. Additionally, he sings "Under the Sea" with Ariel, even singing the other sea creatures' parts instead.
*The Little Mermaid and Trolls Band Together, both of which Daveed Diggs starred in, came out in 2023.
