Over three years after Frozen 2 ranked as the highest-grossing animated movie of all time, Disney has officially announced that Frozen 3 is in the works.
In February 2023, Disney boss Bob Iger announced that the threequel, as well as sequels to Toy Story and Zootopia (aka Zootropolis), were in development. The length of time it’s taken is surprising
A New Movie Has Been Confirmed by Disney.
Fans have been teasing a third Frozen movie for some time now. Even though she said she had “zero authority” to confirm a threequel, Kristen Bell (the voice of Anna) “confirmed” it in June 2022.
Her co-star Idina Menzel (the voice of Elsa) followed up in September 2022, saying: “I can unofficially confirm that there will be a Frozen 4 and 5. A trilogy and then a quadrupole, or whatever it’s called.”

Jennifer Lee, who wrote and directed the first two movies, told Digital Spy before the sequel’s release that the second movie felt like it might be the end for Anna and Elsa. She also pointed out that they said the same at the end of the first movie.
” The goal has been achieved. It feels like the end, but the first one also felt like the end when we achieved it.”
Apparently, that feeling was short-lived! Frozen 3 has been confirmed. Here’s everything we know.
What Is the Expected Release Date for Frozen 3?
Over three years after Frozen 2 ranked as the highest-grossing animated movie of all time, Disney has officially announced that Frozen 3 is in the works.
“We’ll have more information about these projects soon, but this shows how we’re leveraging our unrivaled brands and franchises,” Iger said when he announced the upcoming movie (via Deadline).
Since Frozen 2 and Frozen 3 were release six years apart, that’s a good indicator of when Frozen 3 will be release. Depending on how far along the development is as of February 2023, fans may have to wait until 2025 to see Anna and Elsa again.
Director duo Jennifer Lee and Chris Buck have been hard at work on the new meta Disney movie Wish, which does not yet have a release date. It’s unclear whether they’ll be doing the third Frozen movie, but we wouldn’t be surprise if they did.
Frozen 3 Casts: Who’s Returning for Frozen 3?
Idina Menzel as Elsa and Kristen Bell as Anna make Frozen the perfect movie. Their willingness to return to their respective roles has been expresse by both stars.
Jonathan Groff (and Sven) would probably return as Kristoff and Olaf, respectively.
Also returning are Sterling K Brown as Mattias, Jason Ritter as Ryder of Northuldra, Rachel Matthews as Honeymaren, and Ciarán Hinds as Pabbie of the Rock Trolls.
We also saw more of Evan Rachel Wood and Alfred Molina as Anna and Elsa’s parents Iduna and Agnarr in Frozen 2.
While the movie has been confirmed, no cast announcements have been made as of February 2023.
Frozen 3 Plot: How Does Frozen 2’s Ending Lead to a Third Movie?
A mysterious voice has been calling to Elsa for some time, and Anna and Elsa must visit an enchanted forest outside of Arendelle to discover the reason for the call, and to prevent the enchanted spirits from destroying Arendelle.
As it turns out, the forest was blocke off from the rest of the world in the past because of a battle between Arendelle soldiers and the Northuldra people.
On the way to Ahtohallan in search of Elsa’s power source, Anna and Elsa discover their parents were shipwrecke. In the enchanted forest, Anna and Elsa discover their parents’ ship and learn that their mother was Northuldran.
Their grandfather, who created the dam in the forest to weaken the Northuldrans, was responsible for the conflict as well. Anna realizes she must break the dam to free the forest from the wrongs of the past.
And she did it just in time. Elsa was frozen in Ahtohallan, seeking the voice that was a memory of her mother. As a bridge between the magical and human worlds, Elsa becomes the “fifth spirit”.
There are two sides to every bridge, and Anna is the other side. Therefore, Anna becomes Queen of Arendelle and Elsa stays in the forest, ensuring the happiness of both kingdoms.
In delivering on the producer’s promise, the two films will tell “one complete story” as they conclude the arcs set up in Frozen. Anna has found her place in the world, and Elsa has finally accepted her magical side.
At this point, it is unclear what the sequel will be about. However, God has previously said it will only happen if there is a compelling reason to exist, like the sequel.
“When or if a Frozen 3 will be made, I’m not sure,” he told PopCulture.
“Jennifer Lee and her team at Disney Animation are sure to come up with great stories one day.”
Let’s hope they’ve found that story.
