Frozen 2 was released in 2019. Years after this, the work on the third installment is ongoing.
Jared Bush, who is the CCO of Walt Disney Animation Studios said at the 2025 Annecy Animation Festival, “Some of that is under wraps, but what I’d share with you is that right now, the work being done on Frozen 3, specifically, is phenomenal.”
He continued, “When people see it, I think returning to that world with those characters, the entertainment value of watching them go on a new journey, but that feels very organic to the story they’ve already been on, is fantastic.”
Jared also reflected on the pressure to reach the quality bar for every project in the studio.
“For me personally, I think that it’s critical to make sure that every movie we do is fantastic. We have the luxury of being able to look at movies many times.”
“So looking at Frozen 3 as, ‘Can we tell the very best story we can with that and not worry about where we’re going to split into that next story,’ is sort of important. One thing at a time is, to me, the best way to approach it,” he added.
It is expected Frozen 3 will be out in 2027.
