The classic, Disney princess fairy tales are back!

The Princess & The Frog marks Disney’s return to hand-drawn animation in more than 15 years — the last hand-drawn animated movie we saw was Home on the Range

In the new spin on the classic fairy tale, a prince named Naveen (Bruno Campos) from the land of Maldonia is transformed into a frog by the evil scheming voodoo magician Dr. Facilier (Keith David). The frog prince mistakens a girl named Tiana (Anika Noni Rose) for a princess and has her kiss him to break the spell. However, the kiss doesn’t break the spell, but instead turns Tiana into a frog as well. Together, the two of them must reach the good voodoo priestess of the Bayou, Mama Odie (Jenifer Lewis), while befriending a trumpet-playing alligator and a hopelessly romantic firefly along the way.

The Princess & The Frog opens nationwide on Friday, December 11th
