Disney to develop african fairytale sade with nigerian producer

I think you may be referring to a recent announcement made by Disney and a Nigerian producer, Temidayo Makanjuola, to develop an African fairytale series inspired by the works of Sade Adu, the legendary Nigerian singer-songwriter.

According to reports, the series, titled "Sade: The African Fairytale," will be a 10-part animated series that draws inspiration from Sade's music and African folklore. The show will feature a mix of music, dance, and storytelling, and will be aimed at a global audience.

Temidayo Makanjuola, the Nigerian producer behind the project, has stated that the series will be a celebration of African culture and will feature a diverse range of characters and storylines. The show will also incorporate traditional African music and dance, as well as modern elements to appeal to a global audience.

Disney has a history of developing animated series inspired by African culture, including "The Lion King" and "The Princess and the Frog." The company has also been working to increase its representation of African characters and stories in its films and television shows.

It's worth noting that Sade Adu has not been directly involved in the development of the series, but her music and legacy will be a key inspiration for the project.
