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.
Frozen 3 has been officially confirmed by Disney CEO Bob Iger, And the animated sequel is currently in pre-production stages. Many of the cast are expected to return for Frozen...
Honeymaren, a member of the Northuldra tribe who was trapped in the Enchanted Forest by the curse, could return for Frozen 3 as Elsa's girlfriend based on the two characters' shared chemistry.
After Frozen 3 was confirmed earlier this year, Disney CEO Bob Iger recently announced that Frozen 4 is in the works as well. Disney Animation Chief Creative Officer Jennifer Lee now further contextualizes Iger's surprise announcement, revealing that a fourth film is needed because "they have a lot of story to tell".
While the release date for Encanto 2 is uncertain, if officially announced, fans can expect a release date of at least 2025 due to production demands. The cast is likely to feature returning voice actors from the first film, including Stephanie Beatriz and Lin-Manuel Miranda.
Three years later, Elsa is 21 years old and set to be crowned queen. The people of Arendelle are joyously preparing for her coronation day. Anna (now 18) is flushed with excitement as the castle gates are opened for the first time since the sisters' childhood.
However, the other date is for a Walt Disney Pictures co-production with Walt Disney Animation Studios. This is almost certainly the provisional Frozen 3 release date. The date set by Disney is 26 November 2025, so this is when Frozen 3 is likely to be released.
Elsa becomes the "fifth spirit", the bridge between the magical world and the human world. But, as we all know, a bridge has two sides and Anna is the other one. So, Elsa stays in the forest and Anna becomes Queen of Arendelle, ensuring that the two kingdoms live happily ever after.
Frozen 3 could also naturally bring Elsa and Honeymaren together as a couple since they both live in the same location by the end of Frozen 2: the Enchanted Forest. After Elsa discovers she's the fifth spirit, she finds her calling as the mediator between the natural world and civilization.
Disney CEO Bob Iger hints that 'Frozen 4' movie is already in the works. For any fans just not ready to "Let it go"... this announcement is for you! And yes, you read that right, Disney CEO Bob Iger teased that the team is working on "Frozen 3" and "Frozen 4" at the same time.
An official release date for Toy Story 5 has not been announced so far and its status is 'in development' at Pixar. Judging by the release cycle of the previous films, we might be waiting up to four or five years for Toy Story 5 placing its release window at some time in 2027-2028.
Moana isn't the first princess not to have a love interest. Princess Merida from Brave also didn't have one. The story was all about her not wanting go through with an arranged marriage and her relationship with her mother, and that movie was AMAZING.
While it's unlikely that Coraline 2 will happen anytime soon, Neil Gaiman hasn't completely ruled out the possibility and expressed that a sequel would have to surpass the original in quality.
Walt Disney Studios will release 19 movies theatrically in 2023 and many more on Disney+ and Hulu. A "Captain Marvel" sequel and a new Disney animated film are in theaters in November. Gareth Edwards' sci-fi epic "The Creator" will be released September 29.
Frozen II occurred after a 3-year time jump, with Elsa now 24 and Anna 21. The Frozen movies seem to be one of the few animated Disney franchises to consider 21 an ideal age to rule.
Frozen 3 may finally reveal Anna's powers, but it may be that Arendelle's new queen always had magic within her - and that it's connected to Elsa. Since her first appearance in Frozen, fans have wondered if Anna would ever get powers - and Frozen 3 may reveal that she has had them all along.
At 21 years of age in the original film and 24 in the sequel, Elsa is a beautiful young woman, has a tall and slender build, blue eyes, rosy cheeks, thin pink lips, a small nose, long, platinum-blonde hair, and pale skin with a light dusting of freckles (a trait she shares with her sister Anna, though less prominent).
Indeed, as there are no condoms or any other reliable form of birth control in the frontier, there's a real possibility that Ennis really did impregnate Elsa. Sadly, before 1883 could even drop any clues that Elsa was pregnant, Ennis died in the next episode while Elsa died during the finale.
Although Elsa's disability is encoded as a magical ice power, the language the film uses to talk about her condition maps on to the experiences of people with physical, mental, and intellectual disabilities in recognizable ways.
