According to the theory, the characters in each film are closely connected and it all begins with the death of Queen Elsa and Anna's parents who both died while travelling out at sea.
The connection between 'The Little Mermaid', 'Frozen', 'Tarzan', and Tangled' Prince Eric from the Little Mermaid is the brother to Anna and Elsa from frozen, and Tarzan, and they're all cousins to Repunzel from Tangled.
Ariel from The Little Mermaid Appears on a Book Cover
When Elsa is in Ahtohollan, she sees a collection of memories preserved in ice. One of them is of her father reading a book by a “new Danish author” (who would be Anderson), featuring Ariel on the cover.
Princess Rapunzel and Eugene appear in Frozen as a brief cameo, indicating that they exist in the same universe as Elsa and Anna. It also implies that the two royal families might be close, as Rapunzel is likely being sent to Elsa's coronation as a representative of the Kingdom of Corona.
There are also a few family similarities - both Rapunzel and Elsa are blonde and both have powers that look pretty but are kind of weird. (Glowing magic hair?
In the Disney film adaptation, Anna is depicted as the princess of Arendelle, a fictional Scandinavian kingdom, and the younger sister of Elsa (Idina Menzel), who is the heiress to the throne and possesses the elemental ability to create and control ice and snow.
Rapunzel must've seen the other Disney princess movies — she's painted homages to them on the newel posts in the staircase in her tower. There's an apple for Snow White, a slipper for Cinderella, a rose for Belle, and a shell for Ariel. She also has a real spinning wheel in there, too, as a nod to Aurora.
While it is known that her mother perished, there is no story attached to the event. However, much later, in 2008, an animated The Little Mermaid prequel revealed that Ariel's mother was crushed by a pirate ship during an altercation between humans and merpeople.
Rapunzel and Eugene did not literally attend Elsa's coronation. That was an Easter egg, meant as an eye grab for the audience. Saying they were literally there is like saying Belle was literally walking down the streets of Paris while Quasimodo was singing “Out There.”
"Whatever people want to believe, go for it," he said. "That's the spirit of Disney." So, basically, Tarzan is Anna and Elsa's little brother, and there's nothing anyone can say to convince us otherwise!
Frozen explicitly shows the audience that Iduna and Agnarr's ship has sunk, killing both of the young princesses' parents. It's later revealed in Frozen 2 that the king and queen were traveling to Ahtohallan, a magical glacier in the north, and Frozen's sequel again confirms that Anna and Elsa's parents died at sea.
With Elsa dead, Olaf's connection to her powers is gone, and so he disappears because he can no longer exist. Of course, he is later brought back to life when Elsa is too, but the full sequence of events isn't shown.
Both characters have two daughters (Agnarr is the father to Elsa and Anna, while Big Bob is the father to Olga and Helga). In Frozen II, Agnarr is voiced by Alfred Molina, while Iduna is voiced by Evan Rachel Wood. The two had previously voiced the Fairy King and his daughter, Marianne, respectively, in Strange Magic.
Despite what Disney fans may believe, Tarzan is not related to "Frozen" characters Anna and Elsa. "Can I put one rumor to rest that is my fault? Tarzan's parents are not Anna and Elsa's parents," said codirector Chris Buck during a 20th anniversary panel for "Tarzan" to a lot of applause from the crowd.
She asked her lover to bring her linen threads, so she could do a rope out of them and use it to escape. Rapunzel got pregnant, and Gothel noticed this. Either that, or Rapunzel once incautiously exclaimed that the witch was much heavier, thus longer to lift, than her prince.
Rapunzel is the secondary antagonist of DreamWorks' 14th full-length animated feature film Shrek the Third, the third installment of the Shrek film series. She is a bogus member of the princess group and a friend of Princess Fiona.
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs came out in 1937, debuting the very first Disney princess with Snow White herself. Voiced by Adriana Caselotti, she's incredibly of her time (i.e. dated af).
On February 8, 2023, Disney CEO Bob Iger confirmed that Frozen 3 is in the works, along with Toy Story 5 and Zootopia 2. While news of a third Frozen film was a welcome one, we have yet to hear more details about the movie or see a trailer. Here's everything we know about Frozen 3.
Olaf appears in the sequel Frozen II, where he no longer needs a permanent snow flurry, as he is now made of permafrost, and enjoys being able to freely bask in the sun year-round. Now three years old, Olaf is slightly more intelligent and mature.
