Walt Disney Animation Studios has officially pulled the plug on its Tiana princess series as it abandons making original longform content for streaming, The Hollywood Reporter has learned. A spokesperson confirmed there will be some layoffs in its Vancouver studio as a result of this shift in business strategy.

Walt Disney Animation Studios won’t be wasting any more time on streaming shows, according to a new report. The studio has dropped long-gestating plans for a Tiana series (about the protagonist of 2009’s The Princess And The Frog) starring Anika Noni Rose and is dropping all plans for longform content,

It seems as if Walt Disney Animation Studios is getting off the Disney+ train for the foreseeable future after years of supporting the streaming service. After the entertainment giant launched Disney+ in 2019, the storied animation house began putting content on the platform in 2020. This is seemingly no longer going to be the case going forward.
