I doubt TVLine would go through that much trouble to say Tiger Lily many times without some form of communication with A&E if it wasn't. The Disney movie is pretty much a fictional character version of Pocohontas. So if they base it on that, that are basing it on a "legend" or "folktale" version, essentially.
