She captioned her post,
“Hi @Disney I’m Ari Lennox and I would love an opportunity to audition for Princess and The Frog in person. Here’s #AlmostThere By Anika Noni Rose”
Reportedly, the remake rumor — which has taken on a life of its own on social media — started after a Disney-themed podcast claimed the famed studio was in pre-production for a reboot of the 2009 “The Princess and the Frog” animation film.
As you may know, “The Princess and the Frog” is an animated musical romantic comedy that focuses on the life of a waitress named Tiana who has dreams of owning her own restaurant. Unfortunately, during the film, Tiana turns into a frog and goes on the tough journey of returning to her human form before the curse becomes permanent.
After sharing her audition submission, fans flooded Ari’s comments with moral support as they backed her for being the perfect person for the rumored upcoming film.
