Disney's Next "Princess": a Sista in the N.O...?

N.O. this is not a joke! not a dream! not a hoax! a 19 year old black woman named Maddy is the star of Disney's next animated film: The Frog Princess. the film, which Disney (and Pixar) c.c.o. John Lasseter calls "an American Fairy Tale," will be set in the womb of the Jazz era, 1920's New Orleans.
experienced directing tandem John Musker and Ron Clements (Alladin, The Little Mermaid, Hercules) will helm the new film. New Orleans native Randy Newman (seen below with the Dirty Dozen Brass Band) will supply songs and the score for the Disney musical, and Jennifer Hudson, Anika Noni Rose, and Alicia Keys are all rumored to be contending for the title role, but i haven't heard who will snag it... The Frog Princess is currently scheduled for release in 2009... so you got time to save up for movie popcorn...
holla!
samax.
