Above is the teaser poster for the new Disney cartoon, THE PRINCESS AND THE FROG. This movie marks the debut of the first African American Princess (Princess Tiana). The movie is due out around Christmas time.

Set in one of the greatest musical cities of them all, New Orleans, the film teams Ron Clements and John Musker, creators of The Little Mermaid and Aladdin, with Oscar winning composer, Randy Newman. Voice talent includes Anika Noni Rose, Keith David, Jenifer Lewis, John Goodman, Jim Cummings, Terrence Howard and Oprah Winfrey.

I remember growing up watching Disney movies and always wishing they had a black princess. Finally! I used to be obsessed with the Little Mermaid and really wanted red hair. Long story..
