Tiana show no longer coming to Disney Plus
Briefly

Disney has officially canceled the much-anticipated television show based on The Princess and the Frog, which was first announced in 2020. Unlike the Moana series, which evolved into a theatrical sequel, the Tiana show faced multiple delays and has now been removed from Disney’s upcoming projects. This cancellation aligns with Disney's new strategy of moving away from longform content on Disney Plus and transforming the Tiana project into a shortform special instead. The decision reflects Disney's evolving focus on the character only after plans to change Splash Mountain to Tiana's Bayou Adventure gained traction in 2020.
The long-awaited Princess and the Frog television show has officially been canceled, with Disney shifting its streaming strategy away from longform content to a shortform format.
Despite initial plans for a full show tied to Tiana's Bayou Adventure, the project faced multiple delays and is now officially off the schedule.
Disney's recent focus on Tiana only gained momentum after pledges to revamp Splash Mountain, responding to a push for greater representation during the 2020 protests.
Although the Tiana show is no longer in production, the company has not confirmed details about its transformation into a shortform special or its release date.
