Disney's Sofia the First would debut the first princess hailed from a kingdom inspired by diverse Latin cultures and folklore - 16-year-old Princess Elena of Avalor. Aimee Carrero of ABC Family’s Young & Hungry will provide the voice for this character who would be first introduced in 2016.

“What excites us most,” Disney Junior Worldwide EVP Nancy Kanter said in a statement, “is the chance to use distinctive animation and visual design to tell wonderful stories influenced by culture and traditions that are familiar to the worldwide population of Hispanic and Latino families and reflect the interests and aspirations of all children as told through a classic fairy tale.”

Excited for her story? We are too!
