Colman Domingo and Robert O’Hara are reportedly in talks to co-write a live-action Tiana movie for Disney, according to IGN South Africa.
Disney is expanding its live-action slate with a familiar face from New Orleans. According to a recent report from IGN South Africa, multi-award-winning actor Colman Domingo is in talks to co-write a live-action feature centered on Tiana from The Princess and the Frog. He is reportedly joined by acclaimed playwright and director Robert O’Hara to tackle the script for the studio.
While plot details and casting remain under wraps, the project represents a notable shift for Disney's ongoing live-action adaptation strategy by tapping into heavy-hitting creative talent from outside traditional studio writing rooms. Domingo has been having a massive moment across film and television, and bringing his perspective alongside O’Hara suggests the studio might be aiming for a more grounded, character-driven take on the beloved 2009 animated musical.
For modern entertainment fans who watch franchises expand across streaming, theatrical releases, and interactive media, this development keeps the conversation going around how classic intellectual property is adapted. As digital entertainment continues to blend cinematic storytelling with gaming tie-ins and community fandoms, we will have to see if this project eventually translates into cross-media experiences or theme park integrations down the line.
