When John Lasseter was appointed chief creative officer over Disney Feature Animation in February 2006, he invited Clements and Musker back to Disney to oversee production on "The Frog Princess", and were officially confirmed as directors in the following July. Later re-titled "The Princess and the Frog", the film received positive reviews and grossed $267 million worldwide.
