As reported by The Hollywood Reporter, Disney has ceased production on a Tiana streaming series because they are no longer creating long-form original content for their streaming platform. This project was initially announced back in December of 2020, during a period when Disney was heavily investing in new shows and films for their recently launched streaming service, Disney+. (It’s important to note that the Tiana show was unveiled at the same time as the Moana series – which eventually transformed into the Moana 2 theatrical release that premiered in cinemas last autumn.)

Mills commented, “Conan really hit the mark! His performance brought back memories of his 30-year journey in late-night TV, hosting events like the Emmys, and other ventures. It was a sort of ‘Best of Conan’ show. The audience enjoyed a little bit of everything: A side-splitting monologue that mirrored Conan’s signature style – wit, self-deprecation, and jokes that were initially amusing but later proved to be even funnier.
Moore received a nomination for Best Actress, largely due to her outstanding portrayal in “The Substance,” which clinched the Oscar for Best Makeup and Hairstyling. The film additionally garnered nominations for Best Director and Best Picture.
