Wreck It Ralph 2 also features a scene with all the Disney princesses. Yes. ALL OF THEM. And Tiana from Princess and the Frog goes natural. YAAAAS! Let that 4C hair flow Tiana! Anika Noni Rose took the stage and was fierce per usual. Appearances from Ariel and Moana also happened at the D23 Expo today. What an amazing celebration of Disney princesses old and new! Wreck-It Ralph 2 is due for release in theaters March 9, 2018.
The next new Pixar project is set in a “suburban fantasy world.” That could be practically anything, but I’m certain many of us have a few guesses, but leave your comments below and let us know what you think?
