Get ready for more Anna and Elsa.
Six years after their mega-successful "Frozen" hit theaters, Disney dropped the first trailer for the sequel.
The teaser to the upcoming animated film shows Queen Elsa (Idina Menzel) plunging into a dark and stormy ocean while trying to turn it into ice.
Fans can rest assured that their favorite characters are back: Princess Anna (Kristen Bell), Olaf (Josh Gad), Kristoff (Jonathan Groff) and of course, Sven the reindeer.
"Frozen 2" follows one of the most successful animated movie in Disney's history. The original 2013 film was a global phenomenon, earning more than $1.2 billion at the worldwide box office.
The film also won two Oscars, including best animated feature. "Frozen" then got even bigger by becoming a huge franchise for Disney via endless merchandising and a hit soundtrack led by Menzel's infectious "Let It Go," which went on to sell over 3 million copies by the summer of 2014, making it one of the top albums of the year. The film was also made into a Broadway show and even a theme park ride at Disney World.
"Frozen 2" hits theaters November 22.

We’ll see. I think it’s a virtually guaranteed blockbuster, practically a license to print money.
So where did the great innovaters at Dizzy rip off this story? You know like how they borrowed the anime Kimba the White Lion to line their pockets with cash with that Lyin’ King movie.
Those stupid Japanese will never know, right?
okay
didn’t the neoDisneyists say that one of the girls is a lesbian?
Not interested in Disney kiddie perv movies.
Anna and Elsa? Here I thought ‘The Frozen” was about Presbyterians.
The Snow Queen is my answer.
Walt was a genius you must admit. He found the literal Pot O’ Gold at the end of the rainbow by taking folk tales in the public domain, adapting them into animated features of his own...now protected by copyright that is strictly enforced. Disney has become fabulously wealthy
Too bad it’s run by rabid liberals and steered totally by the Homo mafia. I won’t give them a penny!
I think best Disney flick is Aladdin. Followed by lion king.
Worst is Fantasia.
I've watched this movie countless times with my two daughters who love it and I never noticed anything prurient about that scene.
No. Not directly. SJW's have seized on Elsa's character and are pretty much demanding that she be turned into a lesbian and given a girlfriend. It's the only subject that interviewers want to ask Idina Menzel, who voices Queen Elsa, sand “Frozen” writer and co-director Jennifer Lee about. "Is Elsa a lesbian? Is Elsa a lesbian? Is Elsa a lesbian?"
Of course they're going to not dismiss it out of hand. However, Elsa is a pretty significant character and it will be a gamble if Disney acquiesces to the demands from SJWs. They will not make up a significant demographic of people who purchase tickets and merchandise and after Disney's recent #GetWokeGoBroke Star Wars debacles, it might not be a gamble Disney wants to take.
Daddies will accept lesbian Elsa in a cosplay video on PornHub but not so much in the theaters when they take their daughters to the movies.
One of their most financially successful. Also, the target of SJW outrage for being too white.
Disney wouldn't be succumbing to SJWs if they push her out of the closet
Disney is still a business and as much as they want their "woke" films to be box office juggernauts, they've been disappointing in this realm.
"Frozen" and "Star Wars" are the movies that are designated to be the money trees that pay the bills for all the less-grossing "prestige" pieces the studios churn out. When they underperform, it's bad.
Great, Frozen on continuous loop again at every holiday party with anybody who has children
Keep in mind too that Disney has to sell this thing overseas, to foreign audiences not nearly as "woke" to gaydom as Americans are.
It's one thing to snip a split-second scene of two men dancing in Beauty and the Beast or an ambiguous lesbian couple in Finding Dory but if Elsa is openly lesbian with a girlfriend, that's a significant plot device that will shut the film out from a lot of foreign markets, particularly all those Muslim countries that SJWs pander to and hold out as examples of freedom and tolerance for the rest of us.
No thanks, I'd rather spend my precious time and money elsewhere than to give a penny to the perverted, SJW, DISNEY RAT.
I DON’T CARE
You seem rather emphatic about your indifference. Just sayin’....
“Merchandising, merchandising, where the real money from the movie is made!”
80 years old Disney cartoons are sold on home video and cable and theatrical rerelease. The Beast will continue to bring in billions regardless what the new product is like.
