oh, hadn't heard about this one yet. I would love for Anika to get it---she was my favorite thing about Dreamgirls.

I'll have to look a bit more into this movie---especially since it's 2-D.

I love the dress also!

Just read a bit about it.....Her name is Maddy and the movie will take place in New Orleans.

IMDB listed the Princess's name as Tiana, not Maddy. IMDB gets somethings wrong, is this one them? Or has the name been changed?

bumping with a new pic:



Walt Disney Pictures has revealed this first photo of princess Tiana in the studio's traditionally-animated The Princess and the Frog, coming to theaters in 2009. The movie is written and directed by John Musker and Ron Clements and features the music of Randy Newman.

A musical set in the legendary birthplace of jazz -- New Orleans -- The Princess and the Frog will introduce the newest Disney princess, Tiana (voiced by Anika Noni Rose), a young African-American girl living amid the charming elegance and grandeur of the fabled French Quarter. From the heart of Louisiana's mystical bayous and the banks of the mighty Mississippi comes an unforgettable tale of love, enchantment and discovery with a soulful singing crocodile, voodoo spells and Cajun charm at every turn.

Thank you for that picture! It's looking good.

I like it all except the whole voodoo business. New Orleans can't shake that cliche that limits the scope of the stories that could be told from the streets of their city.

Thanks for the photos and information! I don't think I've ever heard of this film. It's exciting that it's going to be an old school Disney film
