Happy Siblings Day! From a member of our team!
Happy siblings day!
The love between Elsa and Anna is ultimately what makes Frozen so special to me. It is one of the only Disney movies that focuses primarily on a bond between sisters, which is part of the reason it’s so special. My younger sister and I have always been best friends, so I’ve always seen us in Elsa and Anna. When Frozen first came out in 2013, we were 8 and 5, the same ages as Elsa and Anna were in the prologue. I could totally see us at that age playing in a very similar way to how Elsa and Anna did together. When we were younger, we played games where we pretended to be Elsa and Anna and reenacted scenes from the movie or made up our own. More recently, we’ve dressed up as Elsa and Anna to see the Frozen musical together.
Frozen has always been something special I could share with my sister. From the time we were little kids until now, we’ve both loved everything about the movie, but especially the story it tells about Elsa and Anna’s love for each other.

Frozen Through the Years
Yearly Spotlight: 2023
Written by @toriofthetrees
This year marked...
Frozen’s 10th Anniversary
It was wild.
Starting off with a bang, in February Disney CEO Bob Iger announced that Frozen III was in development, later confirmed by Josh Gad. Idina Menzel and Jen Lee confirmed it in June, with Jen Lee going on to say that she would not be directing this installment of the franchise. However, she confirmed that she knew the person who was, she loved their story, and she trusted them completely.
Her enthusiasm did not go unnoticed.
On top of the 10th Anniversary for Frozen (November 27) this year also marked the 100th Anniversary for Disney Studios as a whole (October 16). To commemorate both, much of the activity peaked towards the last three month of the year.
The hashtag #Frozen10 was created to celebrate the anniversary.
On October 11, the Forces of Nature podcast was released over several installments. It was met with mixed reviews; some enjoyed it, some were more critical of it, and most agreed that while it was fun, it did not have the chops to be a major installment of the Frozen franchise.
On October 16, Disney released a short film called Once Upon a Studio to commemorate their centennial celebration. It aired on ABC and showed the hustle and bustle of Disney Studios as everyone (all of our favorite characters) prepared for the big celebration! Elsa, Anna, Kristoff (and technically Hans) were among the many classic Disney characters that appeared!
Two novels were released this year. The first book was the first installment in the Disney Legends trilogy entitled Fixer Upper, written by Jen Calonita. It tells the story of Kristoff’s childhood and life before he met Anna in Frozen. The second novel, an anthology of short stories, was created specifically to celebrate #Frozen10. It is called All is Found, and it brought together 10 authors to write 10 short stories to celebrate the anniversary. It was edited by Heather Knowles and Mari Mancusi, veterans in non-film Frozen lore.
November is the month things started reallly picking up. The merchandising train at Disney rolled out a lot of Frozen merch, including limited edition dolls of the sisters specifically for the 10th anniversary. On November 16, Bob Iger announced a fourth installment of the franchise, with multiple voice actors and creators tied to the project confirming it later that same day. This coincided with the Grand Opening ceremony of the World of Frozen at Disneyland Hongkong. Jen Lee joined in this celebration, with the gates to the park opening four days later.
She informed the world on November 22 that Frozen III and Frozen IV were one story across two installments.
The anniversary itself was on November 27. Disney released a press release on their official website commemorating all that had happened in Frozen history (kind of like what we are doing with these blog posts). And, of course, the merchandising train spun out once again to give us all new merch specifically for the #Frozen10 celebration.
Towards the end of the month, the Frozen song playlist was added to Spotify and Season 5 of Disney Speedstorm was released with Frozen characters.
The year ended with exciting activity from the fandom! The Youtuber GeekCritique worked closely with the Arendelle Archives to create a video detailing the history of Arendelle. The video was released on December 23 and managed to make headlines! The other major project was a fanzine celebrating #Frozen10. Inspired by All is Found, several fans came together to create Water Has Memory: A Frozen Decade. Within the zine are the fandom's Frozen memories, presented in the form of Elsa & Anna accessing them together through Ahtohallan.
Needless to say, this year was a major leap forward for all things Frozen. It gave so much to look forward to, and it was a sizable way to commemorate the 10th Anniversary of this beloved story.

Frozen Through the Years
Yearly Spotlight: 2022
Written by @secretsofthestorymakers
In 2022, some further expansion of the Frozen franchise came through other Disney properties.
Frozen characters were included in the story of Disney Mirrorverse, an alternate universe/crossover role playing game featuring many Disney and Pixar characters. In July, the Disney Wish cruise ship sailed for the first time, featuring Arendelle: A Frozen Dining Adventure. This immersive character dining experience brings guests into the world of Frozen with a royal dinner to celebrate Anna and Kristoff’s engagement.
In books, 2022 brought new editions of both La Bibliothéque Rose series and the Histoires d’Arendelle books, two series of fairly short stories written in French. In July, Polar Nights - a chapter book set after Frozen II - was released. It explores the story of one particular myth in Arendelle and what happens when the past comes back to haunt Elsa and Anna.
As it had been several years since the release of Frozen II, and as the 10th anniversary of the original film was approaching, fans wondered what could be next for the franchise.

Frozen Through the Years
Yearly Spotlight: 2021
Written by @secretsofthestorymakers
2021 brought the release of several short Frozen books such as the picture book Family Game Night and La Bibliothéque Rose books, 14 short chapter books written in French. In addition, the official Frozen II manga was released. Frozen was also included in the official book of the Ultimate Princess Celebration, Tales of Courage and Kindness, with two original stories: The Unhappy Forest featuring mainly Elsa, and Cloudberries for a Queen featuring mainly Anna.
As COVID-19 restrictions lifted, Frozen: The Broadway Musical opened on West End for the first time and the North American Tour resumed after being shut down due to the pandemic.
In regards to digital content, Myth: A Frozen Tale released on Disney+ as a “flat” version of the original VR short, allowing many more fans to have access to it for the first time. On November 12, Olaf Presents - 5 short episodes of Olaf summarizing other Disney movies - was released on Disney+. Olaf Presents was the result of fans’ overwhelmingly positive reaction to Olaf’s humorous summary of Frozen in the film Frozen II. Finally, to finish out the year, Disney released a new version of the Arendelle Yule Log on Disney+ that was handmade out of paper by visual development artist Brittney Lee.
Ultimately, 2021 came with small additions to the lore of Frozen in the form of short content. Nevertheless, fans were excited by each new addition and wondered what would be next in the future of the story.

Frozen Through the Years
Yearly Spotlight: 2020
Written by @secretsofthestorymakers
This year, as we can all recall, the world was locked down by the COVID-19 pandemic. That was reflected in the new Frozen content that was released; it ranged from short and sweet Olaf shorts to the emotional and in-depth story that is Dangerous Secrets.
Throughout April and May, Disney released a series of short animations on YouTube called At Home With Olaf. Most of them had no talking or music, but were simply cute moments of Olaf making a discovery or exploring something new. One of them did feature an original song titled "I Am With You," with Olaf writing a letter to someone.
In June, Myth: A Frozen Tale released in VR on Oculus Quest as a way for Disney to test its virtual reality capabilities. Also in June, the docuseries Into The Unknown: The Making of Frozen II released on Disney+, providing fans a behind-the-scenes look into what it took to make Frozen II. Once Upon a Snowman was also released on Disney+ in 2020, a funny 8-minute short of Olaf’s origin that viewers didn’t get from the movie. It was released to mostly positive reviews!
The year ended with the release of the novel, Dangerous Secrets, in November. This original story by Mari Mancusi (the first major Frozen novel to primarily feature the sisters' parents, Iduna and Agnarr) massively expanded the lore of the Frozen universe. It caused many fans to feel a connection to Iduna and Agnarr that wasn’t really plausible from the movies alone.
Despite the pandemic, 2020 brought the release of a lot of new Frozen content that expanded the lore of the Frozen universe in really interesting ways.

Frozen Through the Years
Yearly Spotlight: 2019
Written by @toriofthetrees
After six long years, 2019 saw the release of the long-anticipated sequel, Frozen II.
The lead-up up to the release was intense to say the least.
The first teaser trailer premiered in February, opening with Elsa on a black-sand beach stripped down to her bare essentials, barefoot, ready to take on a raging sea. She attempted twice to cross the torrential waters before the trailer turned to Anna’s shock of hundreds of diamond-shaped glass covered in strange symbols, taking over Arendelle. Following closely behind were several moments of Elsa, Olaf, Kristoff, and Anna taking on dangerous challenges, and a show of strange, foreign magic. All of this was centered around this new, mysterious setting known only at the time as an autumnal forest.
It gave just enough of a preview to hook millions.
The trailer was viewed and downloaded several million times on Twitter and YouTube within a short amount of time. In the fandom, a storm of news, posts, speculation, and discussions broke out over several platforms, too chaotic to keep track of. The months that followed the teaser were absolutely brimming with excitement! Across cinemas, television, and the internet—both in the US and internationally—came many trailers, sneak peaks, and posters about the upcoming movie. Alongside this came leaks as well, all of it sparking speculation in the fandom over what the plot of the movie could be.
Countless books about Frozen II came onto the market before the film was even released, notably without the end of the film printed within their pages. This lead to fans in many locations to protest the shops selling these books, wanting their money back.
Most of these protests lead to no results.
Success for Disney Studios, specifically. contributed to the exposure for Frozen II. ~In March, Disney invested billions of US dollars in company acquisitions across the film and TV industry, creating the most powerful media company in the world in the USA. ~This was the year of the 6th Disney D23 Expo, the biggest Disney fan event of the year! It was held on August 23–25 at the Anaheim Convention Center in California, showcasing news and pictures around all the new Disney parks, resorts—and movies! Including Frozen II! ~On November 12, 2019, Disney launched its streaming platform Disney+ in several countries ~2019 ultimately proved to be Disney's most successful cinema year to date, regardless of which new film was released!
All of this led up to the release of Frozen II on November 20, 2019 in most countries (unfortunately some countries had to wait until the beginning of January).
This new installment to Elsa and Anna’s story saw the sisters and their found family making a long trek away from Arendelle… in order to save it. Mysterious magics send them up north to the Enchanted Forest, that is covered in an impenetrable mist. Yet, it parts for them. The deeper they go into the forest, the more they discover about themselves, their family, the spirits, Arendelle… so that only one thing can be said for certain: Nothing will ever be the same again.
This film was polarizing.
In the cultural zeitgeist, it was a massive success like its predecessor, exceeding Frozen as the highest grossing animated film of all time. It received mostly positive reviews and it would go on to be nominated for multiple awards, including an Oscar nomination for Best Original Song. The Disney merchandising machinery was running at full speed and earned the company many more millions within a short amount of time. The limited edition dolls were sold out on the same day as release! However, it notably did not have the same cultural reach that its predecessor had. “Into the Unknown,” to many, was not comparable to “Let it Go.” And the film was nominated aplenty, but never actually received any awards.
However, it was within the fandom that this polarization was seen the clearest.
Frozen II made good on its promise that nothing would ever be the same for these characters. The sisters, though still as close as ever, no longer lived under the same roof by the end of the film. Elsa abdicated her crown for her duties as the Fifth Spirit and Guardian of the Enchanted Forest, while Anna took over as Queen of Arendelle. This separation, whilst to some was a step-up for the sisters, others saw as a step back. This debate rages in the fandom to this day, and many, many fans on Tumblr, Reddit, and other social media prefer Frozen to its sequel.
The fandom did gain some new content, including the addition of multiple ships. There were two that were rather popular. The first was Agduna (Agnarr/Iduna), which came about because of the major focus Frozen II had on them, the sisters’ parents. The second was Elsamaren (Elsa/Honeymaren), which came about because Honeymaren had a minor, but important interaction with Elsa in the film that sent her on the right path to Ahtohallan.
Just as Frozen II’s main theme—change—impacted the sisters, so to it did the fandom. The polarizing effect of the film lead to quite passionate arguments over its content. However, the fandom did not get any smaller or lose any passion. People continued to create, debate, discuss, and post about Frozen and Frozen II. In interviews, the cast and crew said that Frozen II was made to grow up with the audience who were there when the first film was released in theaters. With that in mind, the fandom no longer looked like it did when Frozen first came out.
Things change.
But we can still all agree on one thing: We love Frozen 💕
