FOR ALL AGES
'Anastasia' is an animated musical drama movie with a star-studded cast.
The Romanov family reigned over Russia for three centuries until 1917 when Czar Nicholas II and his entire family were killed in the Bolshevik revolution. This historical event inspired the plot of the movie.
Anastasia's main plot revolves around an orphan named Anya (Anastasia) who gets roped into a plan by two con men who wish to earn a reward by depicting her as the royal princess in front of the Dowager Empress. The movie is based on the Romanov family's massacre which is often termed as the lynchpin of the Russian Revolution, a social and political revolution that led to the formation of the USSR at the end of the civil conflict. Although the film was devised by 20th Century Fox, due to the merger between Disney and Fox, the 1997's animated movie Anastasia is now officially owned by Disney. Therefore, it can be streamed on all the same avenues as the other Disney princess movies. The stellar cast includes Meg Ryan who voices Anastasia, John Cusack who voices Dimitri, Christopher Lloyd who voices Rasputin, Angela Lansbury who voices Dowager Empress Marie, Hank Azaria who voices Bartok, and Kelsey Grammer who voices Vladimir.
Even though Anastasia does fulfill a majority of the requirements of being a Disney princess (such as having various musical numbers, the required story arch, etc.), she still isn't called a Disney princess mainly because she hasn't been chosen as one.
