Princess the Frog Ron Clements

The classic fairy tale gets an updated twist in Disney's animated musical comedy set in the French quarter of the city of New Orleans. Transformed into a frog by the evil voodoo man Dr Facilier (voice of Keith David), Prince Naveen (Bruno Campos) from the land of Maldonia goes in search of a princess to break the spell. He finds a young African-American girl called Tiana (Anika Noni Rose) and, mistaking her for a princess, asks her for a restorative kiss.

Things, however, don't go to plan when the kiss only succeeds in changing Tiana into a frog too. Together, the two unfortunate amphibians go in search of Mama Odie (Jenifer Lewis), the good voodoo priestess of the Bayou. As they make their way through the mystical bayous of Louisiana, they encounter new friends in the form of Louis (Michael-Leon Wooley), a trumpet-playing alligator, and Ray (Jim Cummings), a hopelessly romantic firefly.
