We have some good news for Frozen fans today as Disney CEO Bob Iger has confirmed that a fourth movie is already in the works...even though the third instalment doesn't have a release date quite yet!

It's been a tough few years for Disney, but the House of Mouse is now looking to return to what worked before Bob Chapek took over. That means bringing Star Wars back to theaters, a quality-over-quantity approach to the MCU, and the return of animated franchises which are guaranteed to reach $1 billion at the box office. 

Earlier this year, CEO Bob Iger announced plans for new Frozen and Toy Story movies. While Jennifer Lee won't return to direct the former alongside Chris Buck due to her commitments as a Disney executive, the threequel is rapidly starting to take shape. However, we can now confirm a fourth instalment is also in the works!

Talking to Good Morning America co-anchor Michael Strahan yesterday (via Toonado.com), Iger said, "Well, I’ll give you a little surprise there, Michael. 'Frozen 3' is in the works and there might be a 'Frozen 4' in the works too. But I don’t have much to say about those films right now."

"But Jenn Lee, who created 'Frozen,' the original 'Frozen' and 'Frozen II,' is hard at work with her team at Disney Animation on not one but actually two stories."

It appears the plan might be to make these back-to-back, a sensible move to reduce what proved to be a sizeable gap between the first two movies (Frozen was released in 2013 and the sequel, Frozen II, didn't follow until six years later in 2019). 

It's already been over four years since that second chapter and even the kids who visited Arendelle in theaters for the first time with that follow-up are now growing up fast! 

Earlier this year, Lee - who is Disney Animation's Chief Creative Officer - said, "Every morning last week they carved out space for me to work with the creative team on [Frozen III] and I am blown away and I am so excited. I don’t know what I’m doing on it yet - I’m not doing nothing - except doing what I do now, which is we work on every project as as team and I’m in there with creative. But with ‘Frozen,’ just a little bit more."

Frozen made $1.2 billion, with the sequel later grossing $1.45 billion and becoming the second-biggest animated movie in the process. Very little has been revealed about the third instalment, though we know Buck will be directing on his own and that the core cast - Kristen Bell, Idina Mendel, Josh Gad, and Jonathan Groff - are all set to return.

As always, stay tuned to Toonado.com for the latest Disney updates.

On the bright side, that means they can't do a remake anytime soon if they're busy with these sequels.

Jesus... talk about being creative bankrupt.

I would rather see a sequel to a Disney animated movie than get a live action remake.

@tb86 - The answer for Disney is simple... bring on Incredibles 3 and 4 already!

Remember when Disney was creative? Now it's all sequels and live action remakes.

The first Frozen is incredibly overrated and is only popular because of two songs.

The second Frozen was terrible and has no lasting impact on anyone.

But they both made money, so makes sense Disney wants more.

Why is this here?
Josh has his head up Mickey's ass that he just posts anything Disney?

Not every Frozen movie will make a billion dollars,unless you get new viewers which I don't know if that will happen.
