Let it go! Disney's astoundingly successful animated movie musical FROZEN has broken even more records this week, becoming not only the fastest-selling digital release in history but also selling 3.2 million copies on home video in its very first day on the streets, already putting it on track to become one of the best-selling releases of the decade.

Additionally, FROZEN also currently tops the Billboard album charts with its soundtrack reclaiming the top spot yet again, for the sixth week, as well as Idina Menzel's recording of hit breakout tune "Let It Go" cracking the Billboard Top 10 for the very first time - along with the freshly-minted Academy Award for Best Song to go with it, natch.

Plus, FROZEN is now the 13th highest grossing film in history, recently passing the $1 billion mark at the global box office since its release late last year.

Details on the FROZEN Blu-ray and DVD editions are as follows: "Frozen will be available in a 2-Disc Blu-ray Combo Pack (Blu-ray + DVD + Digital Copy) and a 1-Disc DVD set. Bonus features include The Making Of Frozen, D'frosted: Disney's Journey From Hans Christian Anderson to Frozen, Breaking The Ice - The Real Making Of Frozen, 4 Deleted Scenes with introduction by Directors Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee, the original Mickey Mouse theatrical short "Get A Horse," "Let It Go" Music Videos by Demi Lovato, Martina Stoessel & Marsha Milan Londoh, and the Frozen Teaser Trailer. The Blu-ray will feature an English 7.1 DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrack, a DVS 2.0 Dolby Digital track, and Spanish and French 5.1 Dolby Digital Language Tracks. The DVD will feature English 5.1 and DVS 2.0 Dolby Digital tracks, as well as Spanish and French 5.1 Dolby Digital Language Tracks. Subtitles will be available in English SDH, Spanish and French."

The official synopsis for FROZEN is as follows: "Fearless optimist Anna (voice of Kristen Bell) sets off on an epic journey-teaming up with rugged mountain man Kristoff (voice of Jonathan Groff) and his loyal reindeer Sven-to find her sister Elsa (voice of Idina Menzel), whose icy powers have trapped the kingdom of Arendelle in eternal winter. Encountering Everest-like conditions, mystical trolls and a hilarious snowman named Olaf (voice of Josh Gad), Anna and Kristoff battle the elements in a race to save the kingdom."

FROZEN is directed by Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee, with a screenplay by Jennifer Lee and Shane Morris based on the Hans Christian Andersen story THE SNOW QUEEN. FROZEN stars the voice talents of Kristen Bell, Idina Menzel, Jonathan Groff, Santino Fontana, Josh Gad and more.

FROZEN was released in the US on November 27 and is still currently in theaters nationwide.
