Frozen 3: ANOTHER sequel lined up? Director gets cryptic about big news after Frozen 2

Frozen 2 shattered records at the box office last year when it finally put an end to the six-year wait for a sequel to Disney’s smash hit phenomenon. Frozen became an overnight success back in 2013 when Elsa (voiced by Idina Menzel), her sister Anna (Kristin Bell), Olaf (Josh Gad), Kristoff (Jonathan Groff) and Sven the reindeer first came to cinemas. It took several years before directors Jennifer Lee and Chris Buck returned to the drawing board to work on a follow-up, however, and, when they did, it was a daunting task to take the story forward, the characters now being so beloved by fans.

But Frozen 2 was an unprecedented success and has officially become the highest-grossing animated movie in history.

With over $1.3 billion at the global box office, it’s surpassed the first Frozen, which took $1.28 billon) and Incredibles 2, which took $1.23, to earn the top spot.

Of course, fans are hungry for more and are already desperate to find out if Elsa’s journey will continue in a third film.

In a recent interview with Deadline, Lee addressed calls for a Frozen 3.

“Everything feels final, but also bittersweet,” she said. “Time will tell if we have more story to tell, or if anyone even wants it.

“So, there you have it,” she laughed, adding one more teaser by concluding: “Right now, I feel very done.”

It seems Lee is sticking by her previous comments that she feels happy with the way Frozen 2 has come to an end but, nonetheless, the door is still open should she and Buck wish to bring Elsa and Anna back for a third outing.

Elsewhere, Elsa actress Menzel has put her backing firmly behind a Frozen 3, confirming she would be delighted to return for another movie.

In an interview with Parade, she said she could see there being more story to tell.

“I can see a Frozen 3,” she told the publication. “I can see a Frozen 3, 4, 5… It’s whether they want to make them. I’m happy to be involved.

“What I find so commendable is that the creative team waited a really long time to make sure that they had the right story and weren’t exploiting it just for a sequel,” she continued.

“They really waited until they had the right ideas and formed them and took their time with that, and I believe that that’s why it’s equally as good.
