We got the chance to speak to not only the voice of Princess Merida, the talented Kelly Macdonald, but to Craig Ferguson and Kevin McKidd about the movie. Now she must save the kingdoms from ruin before it’s too late. In Disney/Pixar’s “Brave,” we center on the teenager Princess Merida (Kelly Macdonald) who changes her fate but at a horrible cost. We’re now in the middle of the empowered princess wave, and we couldn’t be happier.

As a matter of fact, there are some like Mulan or Rapunzel in “Tangled” that save their love interest themselves. Princess Merida is a prime example of independent Disney princesses who don’t necessarily need a man to save the day. But Princess Merida, the animated star of Disney/Pixar’s new movie “Brave,” isn’t your typical fair maiden. They wanted to be rescued, saved by the handsome prince and travel off to a far-away kingdom where they’d live happily ever after. The early Disney princesses were dainty and the epitome of a damsel in distress.

At some point when we were young we all watched at least one Disney princess movie.
