Reports have speculated that actor Colman Domingo and filmmaker Robert O'Hara are in talks to write a live-action film about Princess Tiana from Disney's The Princess and the Frog.

The film, which is in its early stages, is based on the 2009 animated classic, featuring Anika Noni Rose as Tiana's voice artist. The musical fairy tale set in the 1920s, where a waitress Tiara, desires to own a restaurant. However, she is set on a journey to turn a frog prince back into a human, only to be subjected to the same problem after she kisses him. With a reported gross collection of $267 million, the film won multiple Academy Award nominations.

Domingo, whose recent film Michael had a dream run, grossing over $1 billion, was last seen in Steven Spielberg's Disclosure Day. He also starred in The Four Seasons and Euphoria. His upcoming film, Unforgettable, a Nat "King" Cole biopic, has him wear the hats of actor, director, and producer.
