Love truly is an open door -- for the right couple this time!

FROZEN writing team Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez Tweeted today that they had finally penned a duet for the Disney feature's star couple Anna (voiced by Kristen Bell) and Kristoff (played by Jonathan Groff).

We can't wait to hear the tune, but no word on whether it will appear on Broadway or in the much-rumored sequel. The Lopezes previously shared they had written "about a dozen" new songs for the upcoming stage version of the movie musical.

Plus, HAMILTON creator and star Lin-Manuel Miranda, who coined the nickname "Groffsauce" for actor Jonathan Groff, chimed in to the conversation, saying:

FROZEN won two Academy Awards (best animated film and best original song with "Let It Go") and a Golden Globe (best animated feature film). It is the fifth highest grossing film of all time and the highest grossing animated film earning more than $1.27 billion globally. Released wide domestically on Nov. 27, 2013, FROZEN posted the No. 1 industry all-time Thanksgiving debut and Walt Disney Animation Studios' biggest opening ever.
