Disney has officially announced the release date for Frozen 3, which is set to hit theaters on November 24, 2027, just in time for the Thanksgiving holiday.

This update comes months after Disney’s CEO, Bob Iger, revealed that a fourth installment of the beloved animated franchise is also in the works.

Jennifer Lee, who wrote and directed Frozen and Frozen 2, unveiled a first look at concept art for the upcoming movie during the D23 event.

The concept art features sisters Anna and Elsa riding horses through a forest with a warm and sunny landscape in the distance. Olaf, the lovable snowman, sits behind Anna on the horse, while a shadowy figure reflects in a river near the trio, hinting at the antagonist in the next installment.

Kristen Bell (Anna), Idina Menzel (Elsa), and Josh Gad (Olaf) are set to return to the third movie, although it is unknown if they will also reprise their roles in the fourth installment.

The original Frozen movie was released in theaters in 2013 and quickly became a box office hit, garnering a whopping $1.28 billion.

The animated film also received praise from critics and a variety of award nominations, including winning Best Original Song and Best Animated Feature during the 86th Academy Awards.

A sequel, Frozen 2, was released six years later in 2019 and also became a success among moviegoers, raking in a slightly larger amount of $1.45 billion in the box office on a budget of $150 million.

The movie and characters have become beloved amongst fans, with a Broadway musical being released in 2018 and the World of Frozen opening up at Disneyland in Hong Kong.

In regards to Frozen’s impact, Jennifer expressed, “I believe it’s both the story of familial love with these two sisters, and the idea of love conquering fear.”

“I recently visited World of Frozen, and it is awe-inspiring. You are a citizen of Arendelle the moment you walk into the land.”
