The Proud Family: Louder And Prouder has added Lizzo, Lil Nas X and Tiffany Haddish to its guest star voice cast. Created by Bruce W. Smith, the animated sitcom originally aired on The Disney Channel from 2001 to 2005. The Proud Family followed the day-to-day hijinks of Penny Proud, a Black 14-year-old girl, and her eccentric family. Supporting characters included her parents, Oscar and Trudy, her trouble-making twin siblings BeBe and CeCe, and her endearingly irreverent grandmother, Suga Mama. In 2005 The Disney Channel released The Proud Family Movie, which served as the series finale. Disney+ announced the Proud Family revival in February 2020.

Per Collider, The Proud Family: Louder and Prouder has now revealed a slate of impressive casting announcements for its guest stars, including comedian Tiffany Haddish and musicians Lizzo and Lil Nas X. Fans can also look forward to guest starring appearances from Normani, Gabrielle Union, Lena Waithe, Jaden Smith, Brenda Song, Tina Knowles, Jane Lynch, and many more. Disney+ released a featurette alongside the casting announcements, in which original and new cast members voiced their relationship to the breakthrough series. You can watch the featurette below:

In the video, many of the stars comment on the importance of representation in children’s television. Tina Knowles, mother to Beyoncé and Solange Knowles, said that “kids need to see themselves on TV and in entertainment.” Solange famously performed the show’s theme song with her sister’s former group, Destiny’s Child. Other new guest stars chimed in to commend The Proud Family for creating a relatable series for Black families. “It’s literally what our house looked like,” said Normani. Similarly, Bring It On and Bad Boys 2 star Gabrielle Union added, “They’re a family not unlike my own. Funny, complicated, but at the end of the day, it’s family over everything.”
