The upcoming film is a musical journey close to Grande's heart. The former Disney star gushed about the project in an Instagram Story on Tuesday, July 15.
"I love this book, I love this script, I love the beautiful world of @drseuss, I love this incredible group of creative human beings," she wrote. "I am so thrilled to be a part of this one."
The animated film will also feature Josh Gad, the beloved voice of Olaf in Frozen, who brings with him an impressive résumé of voice work, including The Angry Birds Movie, A Dog’s Purpose, and Central Park.
