Walt Disney Animation appears to be having a revival. After the back-to-back success of Tangled and Wreck-It Ralph, Disney Animation has successfully reclaimed the mantle of being a major force in family entertainment (Planes does not count). And so this new poster for Frozen should intrigue any family that are fans of the company, especially of the princess variety:
Frozen, from director Chris Buck (Tarzan) Jennifer Lee (writer of Wreck-It Ralph), is the story of Anna (Kristen Bell), a naively optimistic idealist who teams up with Kristoff (Jonathan Groff) and a sidekick reindeer to seek to end an eternal winter ruled over by Clara’s sister…the Snow Queen (Idina Menzel). Apparently, there is some kind of comedic snowman named Olaf as well.
Perpetual snow? Endless winter? A Disney princess on a quest with a roguish dude? It sounds like Tangledby way of Game of Thrones’ Westeros. But with music and tunes by Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez of Avenue Q and The Book of Mormon, it is sure to be a throwback in other ways too.
Frozen will be in theaters November 27 with a trailer due next week.
