Enjoyed his voice as Luca, might even enjoy his voice as Flounder too lol.

[@Wiiguy1606]

My thoughts exactly

[@GoogleUser-lo7jo]

Cute voice.

[@RedNoir]

Very cute! He did so well

[@RedNoir]

@@GoogleUser-lo7jo it was so cute ❤😂

[@captainjemmo]

I saw him for the first time in the movie Before I Wake. And I was already so amazed by him. Then he did Luca. He is incredible!

[@michealjohnson700]

Omg he got so big... he is growing up so nicely

[@rifqiadiono753]

Man times goes by fast knowing his voice changed

[@rifqiadiono753]

Originally little mermaid was aired in theaters in 2020 but because of COVID-19 they decide to postponed for 2023

[@ezekielmcville5101]

His voice was adorable in the "Kiss the Girl" clip... my nephews loved that scene.

[@tayinadavis5222]

My siblings loved the scene, it was their favorite. But they loved the entire movie

[@faizs360]

Since watched him in Room alongside Brie Parson, Jacob is going to be great actor in his generation one day!

[@dominique4432]

Aw so happy for him. Enjoyed this interview. His parents and family I hope are so proud😊❤ I can't wait to watch The Little Mermaid

[@far-izangelababan5330]

Jacib played flounder's voice so well and CUTEEEE!!!! 😭🥺🤍

[@billbill5326]

He seems like such a kind and decent person in his own right. I wish Jacob continued success.

[@joewhitehead3]

What do you mean continued his success?

[@jessicagreenfield6584]

I enjoyed him so much in Luca and Wonder. Excited to see him in this! I think it makes sense for him to voice flounder

[@byronharrison4397]

Jacob was the actor who played Blue Winslow in the smurfs 2 & played the voice of Luca from the Disney Pixar film Luca

[@aliciastarsaturn2841]

Also “Wonder” and “Book of Henry”

[@youssefhussein1615]

​@@aliciastarsaturn2841 You mean August from wonder.

[@youssefhussein1615]

Hey I know that kid, and wow look at how much he has grown. Last thing I remember was he was like a kid and right now he's a teenager, and hey he looks handsome.

Awesome. Can’t wait to see this movie! ❤️🙌🏾

[@NikoLoveTM]

Loved him in LUCA

[@rckblzr]

Boy, he really likes playing fish characters for Disney.

[@aliciastarsaturn2841]

He’s adorable!

[@emiliobello2538]

Missed this

[@Buggy-su4oy]

Jacob and Finn Wolfheart could play brothers in a movie.

[@wardenmagellan2643]

Why? They don’t look the same. It’s just like saying that Bill Paxton could have played the brother of Kevin Bacon because they’re both awesome! Any actors that are from the same ethnicity and have reasonable age gap can play brothers in a movie

[@joewhitehead3]

He played the character just in time before his voice changed

[@todaychange5-7783]

They could’ve put human like blue eyes on the fish. It would still look creepy but less creepy

[@NinjaGirl490]

Can you imagine what Luca will sound like in the sequel?

[@psicologofeliperomero5214]

I would be terrible at this. Having to answer the same unoriginals questions would be boring af to me and I couldn't hide that xD

[@buggyroberson8330]

He has come far from playing Brie Larson's son in "Room."

[@johnharris4899]

Loved Jake in Wonder as August Pullman 😍 ❤❤

[@piercenguyen9260]

Flounder from good boys.

[@Spitfire_Cowboy]

LoL! 3:39 5 years! That's awesome! 😎

He was my classmate back when covid hit. Jacob I will never forget the time you tricked the teacher into thinking my win in Kahoot was yours

[@her779]

Really? What's he like in person?

[@mssatoru6505]

Love u jacob, your acting is incredible

[@seanwebb605]

Is it a remake of a Disney film or an new adaptation of the source material which Disney had no role in making?

He is a great actor but the design of Flounder is beyond pathetic… really insulting compared to the bloated budget
