Meet the Villain from 'The Princess and the Frog'

The last featurette on "The Princess and the Frog" was on the princess herself, but this one focuses on the villain, Dr. Facilier, played by Keith David.

In the video, supervising animator Bruce Smith ("The Proud Family,"Bebe's Kids") discusses the character of Dr. Facilier, the villain of the film, and how voice actor Keith David influences the animators work and the character’s performance. David is shown performing and being directed by John Musker and Ron Clements. There are also some brief bits of pencil tests and color footage that hasn’t appeared anywhere else on the web.



Are you excited to see Disney return to hand-drawn animation with this new movie?
"The Princess and the Frog" hits theaters December 11.

More news to come! Catch ya' later!
