FROZEN 2 Is in the Works! Creators Tease Film Sequel at Broadway Opening

FROZEN held its Broadway opening last night, but the story of Anna and Elsa won't stop there. Hints at a sequel for the animated Disney film have been swirling since the beginning of Frozen mania in 2013. At last night's opening of the stage musical, the film's creative team confirmed that the story and songs for Frozen 2 are in the works!

According to Variety, Frozen screenwriter and director Jennifer Lee is currently on a second draft of the film sequel. "What we have today hopefully will be 10% of what we have when it opens," Lee said last night's opening after-party for Frozen, for which she wrote the book. "We've done amazing stuff on 'Frozen 2,' and have a couple of songs already that are blowing my mind."

Oscar-winning songwriting team Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez also confirmed ongoing work on Frozen 2, saying they've dug deeper into the characters in the world of Arendelle. They've even recorded a song with Kristen Bell - but it's all still under wraps. In the meantime, Frozen fans can hear the new songs they've penned for the Broadway musical.
