The directors also confirmed that, despite becoming the fifth spirit, Elsa is still human and therefore mortal. It is unknown if this applies to the other spirits as well. It's possible that Bruni shares this trait with Elsa as they are both organic, unlike the other spirits.
Frozen 2 makes Elsa the immortal fifth spirit, giving the Disney film a happy ending but with some horrible implications for the future. Disney's Frozen 2 may have caused Elsa to be reborn as an immortal magical spirit, but that's not all good news for her.
Frozen 2 revealed that Elsa is the Fifth Spirit — but not the first. Frozen 2 expands on the lore and people of Arendelle and delves into the franchise's elemental magic. One of these new developments is that Elsa's powers stem from nature and that she is the final piece to reunite all the land.
She died and was reborn to take on her true form like has happened in so many stories before. With that transformation, Frozen 2 has made Elsa an immortal spirit now. Like how Frozen 2's other four spirits appear as animals but more than just that, Elsa still appears human but is more than just that.
It was after that the decision was made to fully commit to the voice calling to Elsa being that of her mother, Iduna. As Marc Smith, Frozen 2's Director of Story, notes in the documentary, the idea "unifies the movie" since it starts with a flashback featuring Iduna and Agnarr, and it brings those elements together.
According to Iduna, Ahtohallan is considered a spirit and is the "mother" of all the other spirits. According to Iduna's notes, Ahtohallan is the source of the magic in the Enchanted Forest as well as those of the spirits, including Elsa's powers.
While the voice was calling Elsa to reveal her past to her, it was ultimately revealed that Queen Iduna (Evan Rachel Wood) - Elsa's mother - had a lot to explain as well. This, coupled with the reveal that the call was Iduna all along, means Elsa was hearing the voice of her long-lost mother.
There hasn't been any indication that Elsa will have a girlfriend in Frozen III. That said, some fans have theorized that Honeymaren, a member of the Northuldra tribe, will be Elsa's girlfriend in the next Frozen film. Honeymaren was introduced in Frozen II as a resident of the Enchanted Forest.
It has a slot for November 2024 and November 2025 for “untitled Disney animation”, according to Business Insider. Again, assuming that Frozen 3 is following the same release pattern as its predecessors, it's safe to bet that it will be released November 26, 2025.
The symbolic explanation for why Elsa froze is more straightforward. Elsa freezes in response to the trauma of discovering her family's colonial past. Similar to the plot in Frozen, Elsa is overcome with emotion and loses control of her powers — she is so overwhelmed by her own ice magic that she is literally frozen.
With the spirits as her guide, Elsa follows the call to Ahtohallan, where she discovers that she is the fifth spirit of the Enchanted Forest—the bridge that connects magic and people. Elsa accepts her role and uses her powers to reveal the truth about King Runeard and his dam, passing that truth to her sister Anna.
Based on what Anna and Yelena said, it seems Ahtohallan rewarded Iduna's selfless action by granting Elsa with the power to control ice. So basically Ahtohallan had the intention to create a champion for itself, someone who would bridge the two worlds (maybe to prevent another incident?).
In Frozen 2, viewers do get to see Olaf's resurrection, as the snowflakes gathered up by Gale, the wind spirit, are brought to Elsa so that she can re-make Olaf's snowman body and bring him back to life.
However, the filmmakers were willing to say one thing definitively: "Elsa's not going to have a romantic relationship in this," writer-director Jennifer Lee told a group of journalists gathered at Walt Disney Animation Studios.
Rapunzel is seen in Frozen world proving that rapunzel is set not in 1700s but 1800s and in early 1870s when shipwreck happened. Rapunzel is is cousin of Anna and Elsa on father's side. When parents go to the dark sea in frozen 2 we see their ship drown, while they were envelopped in water but they didn't die.
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.
Olaf. Created from Elsa's magical powers, Olaf is by far the friendliest snowman in Arendelle. He is innocent, outgoing and loves all things summer. Olaf may be a bit naive, but his sincerity and good-natured temperament make him a true friend to Anna and Elsa.
Anna's parents rush her to the sacred realm, where discussions with the trolls reveal that Elsa was born with her powers/ depigmentation and deafness, rather than them being due to illness or accident. Grand Pabbie troll heals Anna but removes her memories of Elsa's magic.
Why didn't Elsa's mom tell her husband she saved him?
Due to the bad blood between their people, Iduna kept both her heritage and her rescue of Agnarr in the forest a secret for many years, though she finally confessed everything to him shortly before their deaths.
