In 1994, the animated musical, The Swan Princess premiered. While many of us remember watching this movie in our youth, and it went on to spawn quite a few sequels, it didn’t exactly go on to become a classic quite the way other animated movies did. Fifteen years later in 2009, the Disney movie, The Princess and the Frog premiered. At first glance, you may not notice the similarities between these two animated musicals, as they do have many, many differences. But, with a closer look, it’s easy to discover enough parallels to make you wonder if The Swan Princess inspired The Princess and the Frog. Of course, the two are both based on very famous works. The Swan Princess is an adaptation of the ballet, Swan Lake, while The Princess and the Frog is based on the Brothers Grimm fairytale, the Frog Prince. The two films, however, diverge from their respective source material and have a lot more in common from that point on. From their similar villains, to plot parallels, to very similar settings, and of course, princesses that must kiss frogs, there’s so much in common with these two movies, that once you notice it, you start to wonder just how much The Princess and the Frog actually borrowed from The Swan Princess. We’ve compiled all the mirrored moments, similar scenes, and plot parallels that leave us to wonder why these movies are so much alike and how they got to be that way.
