So there is NO debate over who is in the princess line I want to state a few things. First off the new princess web-site will be directed by Disney Consumer Products. From this press release and Disney Consumer Products Princess Franchise Information page the official princesses, as of right now, are Snow White, Cinderella, Aurora, Ariel, Belle, Jasmine, Pocahontas, and Mulan. In the future Tiana, Rapunzel, and the new Pixar princess will be officially inducted into the franchise. Elionway, Kida, Megara, Jane, Esmeralda, and Giselle are NOT and will not be considered in the Disney Princess Franchise.With combined global retail sales projected to reach the $5 billion mark, DCP's girls franchises, Disney Princess and Disney Fairies, are supported by companywide synergy and creative merchandise assortments that keep them alive year round on retail shelves worldwide. The return of favorite fairytales and the release of new ones provide an ongoing basis for the success of these franchises– from the Platinum Edition DVD release of Sleeping Beauty this fall and the theatrical release of Walt Disney Studios The Princess and the Frog in 2009, to Rapunzel in 2010 and Disney·Pixar's The Bear and the Bow in 2011. An enhanced DisneyPrincess.com Web site will soon immerse girls in new interactive fairytale experiences.
