Created by Bruce W. Smith, The Proud Family was an animated Black sitcom that appeared on Disney Channel from 2001 to 2005. It centered fourteen-year-old Penny Proud (voiceover done by Kyla Pratt) and her adventurous everyday life, boisterous, coming-of-age friends, and middle-class family in the suburbs.
Along with Pratt starred Davidson (Oscar), Paula Jai Parker (Trudy), Jo Marie Payton (Suga Mama), Tara Strong (BeBe & CeCe/Puff the Dog), Karen Malina White (Dijonay Jones), Soleil Moon Frye (Zoey Howzer), Alisa Reyes (LaCienega Boulevardez), Orlando Brown (Sticky Webb), and Raquel Lee (Nubia Gross). Cedric the Entertainer (Bobby) and Aries Spears (Wizard Kelly) also served as supporting roles.
The theme song, also titled “The Proud Family,” was performed by Solange and Destiny’s Child.
As of now, there are no further details on the reboot’s plot or release date, but we’re hoping they will become available soon.
