The third installment of the Frozen saga —one of Disney's biggest cinematic phenomena of the last decade— has taken visible steps towards its production, fueling the enthusiasm of the franchise's followers. Although Disney has not released a detailed official statement on the film's status, recent signals from the creative team suggest that the sequel is actively underway and on track to meet its release date set for late 2027.
The confirmation of progress arrives after a post by Josh Gad, who lends his voice to the beloved snowman Olaf, in which he appears holding a plush toy of the character and making the number three gesture with his fingers, accompanied by members of the creative team. This gesture has been interpreted as one of the clearest indicators so far that production is moving forward.
The project was officially announced by Disney's chief executive officer, Bob Iger, who already revealed the existence of Frozen 3 and planned its release for 2027. This film, directed by Jennifer Lee alongside Trent Correy, is still in the early stages of creative work, but the fact that the original cast has been confirmed and linked to the project reinforces the idea that the franchise is in full development.
In addition to the returns of familiar voices like Kristen Bell (Anna) and Idina Menzel (Elsa), *Frozen 3* will be released after the previous film, *Frozen 2*, achieved enormous global box office figures and consolidated the saga as a centerpiece of Disney's catalog. With the animated sequel and franchise market expanding, and following recent successes like *Moana 2* and *Zootopia 2*, *Frozen 3* is shaping up to be one of the studio's most anticipated titles for the coming years.
Specific details of the story are kept under wraps, although some sources suggest that the narrative could continue to explore key moments of Arendelle and its characters after the events seen in previous installments. With expectations high and recent advances, Frozen 3 not only represents the continuation of one of Disney's most successful animated franchises, but also a commitment to maintaining the legacy of its characters and the emotional connection with millions of fans worldwide.
