Finally, a princess from India will be produced by Disney. For an original musical feature, the Disney company is working with director Gurinder Chadha and screenwriter Paul Mayeda Berges.
According to reports, the movie will centre on a ‘dynamic princess’ from Indian history.
Chaddha, best known for ‘Bend It Like Beckham’ and ‘Bride and Prejudice’ is a two-time BAFTA nominee.
The Disney project is still under wraps, but according to a Deadline article, Sean Bailey, president of Walt Disney Motion Picture Production, will be in charge.
Through her company, Lindy Goldstein Production, the producer of ‘The Nutcracker and the Four Realms,’ will also be a part of the production crew.
