Frozen 3 isn’t being released until 2027 because they don’t want it to just be ‘a money grab.’. Released in 2013, smash hit animated film Frozen follows Anna (Kristen Bell) as she joins forces with mountaineer Kristoff (Jonathan Groff) to seek her sister Elsa (Idina Menzel) after her uncontrollable magic plunged their village into a perpetual winter.
It fast became one of the most popular Disney films of all time, earning a whopping $1.2billion worldwide and becoming the highest-grossing film of 2013. Frozen 2 followed in 2020 with an unsettled Queen Elsa following a mysterious call to the wilderness triggering a voyage of self-discovery.
A third film in the franchise has been announced, but we’re still two years away from its release. Josh Gad, who voices snowman Olaf in the beloved franchise, insists they don’t want to ‘rush’ the third movie and give fans a flick that is ‘absolutely worthy’ of the 2013 original.
Speaking on The Spotlight with Jessica Shaw podcast on SiriusXM, he said of the follow-up to the musical fantasy: ‘Anything that I have seen or know I will have been sworn to secrecy on.’. He continued: ‘Here’s what I can tell you. There’s a reason the movie is coming out in 2027. And that is because no one wants to rush this.
