Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret is a 2013 American 3D live action/computer-animated musical fantasy comedy-drama adventure film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures. Inspired by Hans Christian Anderson's fairy tale The Snow Queen, it is the 53rd animated feature in the Walt Disney Animated Classics series. It shares the similiary with The Lion King as The Epic Masterpiece in the Renaissance/Revival era. It is also the second film based on the fairy tale; the first being The Little Mermaid. Directed by Chris Buck (Surf's Up, Tarzan) and Jennifer Lee (Wreck-It Ralph), produced by Peter Del Vecho (Treasure Planet, The Princess and the Frog & Tinker Bell), and screenplay written by Lee, the story tells when a fearless optimist, the princess Anna (Kristen Bell), sets off on an epic journey–teaming up with a rugged mountain man, Kristoff (Jonathan Groff), and his loyal reindeer Sven–to find her sister Elsa (Idina Menzel), whose icy powers have trapped the kingdom of Arendelle in eternal winter. Tinker Bell (Mae Whitman) and her fairy friends journey into the forbidden world of the mysterious Winter Woods, where curiosity and adventure lead Tink to an amazing discovery with her sister–a snow fairy named Periwinkle (Lucy Hale) and reveal a magical secret that could change her world forever. The entire Muppets gang goes on a global tour, selling out grand theaters in some of Europe's most exciting destinations: Berlin, Madrid, London, and Dublin. But mayhem follows the Muppets overseas, as they find themselves unwittingly entangled in an international jewel-heist caper headed by Constantine–the World's Number One Criminal and a dead ringer for Kermit–and his dastardly sidekick Dominic Badguy (Ricky Gervais), aka Number Two. Manny (Ray Romano) the mammoth, Sid (John Leguizamo) the sloth, and Diego (Denis Leary) the saber-toothed tiger set out to escape the end-of-the-world deluge, teaming up with a female mammoth named Ellie (Queen Latifah), whose Manny falls in love with. Encountering Everest-like conditions, mystical trolls, and a hilarious snowman named Olaf (Josh Gad), Anna and Kristoff battle the elements in a race to save the kingdom. Constantine has escaped from a Gulag in Siberia, but it is Kermit who is arrested and incarcerated, believed to be Constantine.
Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret underwent several story treatments for years before being commissioned in 2011, with a screenplay written by Jennifer Lee, and both Chris Buck and Lee serving as directors. The film will reprise their respective roles with Mae Whitman, Lucy Liu, Raven-Symoné, Megan Hilty, Pamela Adlon, Angela Bartys, Rob Paulsen, Jeff Bennett, Jane Horrocks, Jesse McCartney, Grey DeLisle, and Anjelica Huston, along with the Muppet performers Steve Whitmire, Eric Jacobson, Dave Goelz, Bill Barretta, David Rudman, Matt Vogel, and Peter Linz. It will feature new ensemble cast including Kristen Bell, Lucy Hale, Idina Menzel, Ray Romano, John Leguizamo, Denis Leary, Jonathan Groff, Queen Latifah, Ricky Gervais, Josh Gad, Seann William Scott, Josh Peck, Santino Fontana, Ty Burrell, Tina Fey, Timothy Dalton, Matt Lanter, Debby Ryan, Alan Tudyk, Will Arnett, Jay Leno, and Ciarán Hinds. Joel McNeely and Christophe Beck return to compose the sequel, while John Powell was hired to help them write the film's orchestral score, while Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn's Bret McKenzie and the husband-and-wife songwriting team of Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez, both of whom had previously worked with Disney Animation on Winnie the Pooh & Tinker Bell's Midsummer Rescue (2011) and Disney Parks on Finding Nemo: The Musical (2007), penned the songs.
Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret premiered at El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood, California, on November 19, 2013.

Plot






Following on from the ending of Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn, the Muppets find themselves at a loss as to what to do next. Per the suggestions, the Muppets decide to embark on a world tour ("We're Doing a Sequel").

An opening prologue tells that icemen from the Norwegian kingdom of Arendelle harvesting ice ("Frozen Heart"). Elsa (Eva Bella), the winter princess of Arendelle; possess cryokinetic and frigiokinesis powers, with which they were able to produce or manipulate ice, snow, frost, sleet, hail, and cold at will. One night while playing, Elsa accidentally injures her younger sister, Anna (Livvy Stubenrauch), with her powers. Their shocked parents, King Agnarr (Maurice LaMarche) and Queen Iduna (Jennifer Lee) seek help from Pabbie (Ciarán Hinds), the troll king and shaman who heal Anna and removes her memories of Elsa's magic. He also informs Elsa that if she had struck Anna's heart it would have been fatal. In order to protect Elsa and Anna, the royal couple isolates the children in their castle until Elsa learns to control her powers. Afraid of hurting Anna again, Elsa spend most of their time alone in their room, refusing even to speak to Anna, and a rift develops between the sisters as they grow up. When the girls are teenagers, their parents die at sea during a storm ("Do You Want to Build a Snowman?"). In Siberia, Russia, the criminal mastermind Constantine (Matt Vogel), a near-exact double for Kermit the Frog (Steve Whitmire) in appearance, escapes from a maximum security Gulag 38B.




A saber-toothed squirrel named Scrat (Chris Wedge) climbs a glacier to bury his acorn, but accidentally opens a hole in it, causing water to spurt out. As the Muppets begin their tour, Constantine makes contact with British tour manager Sir Dominic Badguy (Ricky Gervais) and joins his subordinate; a position Constantine frequently reminds him of; to begin a plot to steal the Crown Jewels of England. Dominic offered to manage the group and schedule the European tour in WGP Inc.




Once the Muppets arrive in Berlin, Germany, they intend to play a shabby venue, but Dominic secures them a show at a prestigious location. When Anna (Kristen Bell) and Elsa (Idina Menzel) come of age, Arendelle prepares for Elsa's coronation as queen ("For the First Time in Forever"). Among the guests is the Duke of Weselton (Alan Tudyk), who seeks to exploit the kingdom for profit. Anna explores Arendelle and meets Hans (Santino Fontana), the prince of the Southern Isles.



Kermit, frustrated with the troupe's ludicrous requests for the show and Miss Piggy's (Eric Jacobson) insistent hints at the wedding and marriage, goes for a walk along the deserted canal at Dominic's suggestion. However, the hooded Constantine ambushes him and slaps a fake mole onto his right cheek, matching Constantine's own resemble, then slips away. Mistaken for Constantine, Kermit is arrested and sent to the Gulag while Constantine escapes. When everyone in Pixie Hollow is preparing for the last season of the year: winter (the season of Christmas and Hanukkah), Tinker Bell (Mae Whitman) wants to go the Winter Woods, due to her curious nature. She sees that the tinker fairies are making baskets which are carried by snowy owls, who then delivers them to the fairies of Winter Woods, and Fairy Mary (Jane Horrocks) learns that there will be another shipment tomorrow.

The world of ice is slowly melting. The creatures are all shown enjoying themselves on slides and pools made by the melting ice at Glacier Fountain, the water park. Sid (John Leguizamo) the sloth, opens a small day camp, where none of the younger creatures take him seriously, nor do Manny (Ray Romano) the mammoth and Diego (Denis Leary) the saber-toothed tiger, which leaves Sid seeking a daring deed.


Later that day, Tink volunteers to help her friend Fawn (Angela Bartys) take the animals to the Winter Woods. While Fawn is busy Tink crosses the border into the Winter Woods, and her wings start to glow.


But Fawn warns her that her wings are freezing and rushes her off to the fairy hospital. After being fixed by the fairy doctor (Jodi Benson), Tink remains curious about the sparkles and colors her wings made in the Winter Woods.

Tink went off to the library, where she finds a book titled Wingology, but unfortunately, a bookworm has chewed the page on "Sparkling Wings" up. Scribble (Thomas Lennon), the fairy librarian with glasses tells Tink that the author of the book, the Keeper, might be able to help her, but he lives in the Winter Woods. After Manny heard the story of a young burro with younger creatures, Fast Tony (Jay Leno), the giant armadillo and local con artist is claiming that the valley will flood and that the bark and reeds that he sell are needed to stay alive. Manny dismisses the idea, but is distracted when he sees that Sid will try to high dive from a giant waterfall; as Manny goes with Diego to the top of the waterfall to save Sid from her act of daredevilry, suddenly the ice under Diego's feet was breaking, causing him to bolt in fear, this also made Sid figure that Diego is afraid of the water. They figure that the pleasant sunshine has caused the ice shelves to melt, and it is kept from destroying the valley only by the glaciers, which have formed a dam.
The Lone Gunslinger Vulture (Will Arnett) warns the mammals that a giant sequoia tree can act as a boat that can save them if they make it to the end of the valley within three days' time, and all soon set out to find it. As the mammals begin their journey, Sid sings three songs to tease Manny about mammoths being "extinct". During the evacuation, a glacier which contains two sea reptiles from the Mesozoic era, Cretaceous and Maelstrom, breaks off.

Despite Elsa's fears, her coronation takes place with incident. During the reception, Hans proposes to Anna, who hastily accepts ("Love is An Open Door"). Elsa refuses to grant her blessing and forbids Anna and Hans's sudden marriage. The girls argue, culminating in the exposure of Elsa's abilities in an emotional outburst. Panicking and declared a monster by the Duke, Elsa flees the castle, while inadvertently unleashing an eternal winter curse on the kingdom. Anna leaves Hans in charge of Arendelle and sets out in search of her sister. High in the nearby mountains, Elsa abandons her restraint, vowing to never return and building herself a solitary ice palace ("Let It Go").

Taking Kermit's place, Constantine meets up with the rest of the Muppets and raises the suspicions of no one who all believe him to be Kermit, expect Animal (Eric Jacobson), who bites him. Constantine and Dominic review their plans ("I'm Number One"). The Berlin performance opens with Constantine freezing at the sight of the large audience and Scooter (David Rudman) has to introduce the show. Later, Constantine and Dominic sneak off to steal a selection of paintings from a nearby National Treasure Museum.

The next morning after the burglary, Interpol agent Jean Pierre Napoleon (Ty Burrell) and CIA agent Sam the Eagle (Eric Jacobson) team up to begrudgingly form an alliance to apprehend the culprit, whom Jean believe to be his nemesis "The Lemur" – the number two criminal in the world, after discovering a coin-based calling card.


Preparing herself for the Winter Woods and using the final shipment as her only chance, Tink sneaks into the depot and climbs inside one of the baskets and waits for the owls. She gets picked up by an unexperienced owl and makes her way across the border. Suddenly, the owl accidentally drops the basket, and Tink crashes into the snow. Realizing her book has been flung from her bag, she tries to get it back before the frost sparrowman named Sled (Matt Lanter) finds it. However, Milori (Timothy Dalton), the Lord of the Winter Woods finds the book and asks Sled, to return the book to the Keeper.

Using this as a opportunity, Tink follows Sled to the Winter Library. Upon arriving, she spots Dewey (Jeff Bennett), the Keeper of all fairy knowledge. But before she can talk to him, the frost fairy named Periwinkle (Lucy Hale) rushes into the room and proclaims that her wings are sparkling the day before when Tink's wings begin to glow and sparkle. An irresistible force guided Tink toward Peri. They ask Dewey to explain what was happening to their wings. Bringing Tink and Peri to a platform and positioning their wings, the whole chamber becomes filled with images explaining their origins. Tinker Bell and Periwinkle realize that they are fraternal twin sisters.

Suddenly, Milori arrives, concerned about the book, warning Dewey to send any 'warm' fairy back to the warm side of Pixie Hollow. Dewey tells the two they can spend five days together before Tink has to return home. Peri shows to Tink that she also collects lost things and tries to find a use for them. Next, they go to the Frost Forest to introduce Tink to Gliss (Grey DeLisle) and Spike (Debby Ryan).


Meanwhile, after being locked in the Gulag, Kermit has attempted multiple escape attempts, all of which are thwarted by Gulag prison officer Nadya (Tiny Fey); knowing of his true identity, Nadya is obsessed with him as Piggy ("The Big House"). Nadya orders Kermit to help organize the prisoners' annual prison talent show. Reflecting on his time with the Muppets, Kermit gains the inmates' respect. Following instructions hidden behind the stolen painting, Constantine and Dominic divert the course of the Muppet tour to Madrid, Spain as part of a plot.



Anna was determined to return Elsa to Arendelle, end the winter and mend their relationship. While getting supplies at Oaken's (Chris Williams) trading post, Anna meets Kristoff (Jonathan Groff) the ice harvester and his pet reindeer, Sven ("Reindeers Are Better Than People"), and convince him to guide her to the North Mountain, where it locates the ice palace until the wolves attack them. Meanwhile, on the train, Constantine wins over Piggy ("I'll Get You What You Want (Cockatoo in Malibu)").


Arriving in Spain, Constantine informs the rest of the Muppets that they permitted to perform any act they wish, much to Walter's (Peter Linz) puzzled suspicion. During this show in Madrid, the Muppets perform while Constantine and Dominic break into a Museo del Prado museum and destroy a roomful of busts in the process to find a key need for their plan. Even though the performance is a disaster that puts the audience to sleep, the Muppets' performance receive critical acclaim.

When Manny briefly is separated from them, Diego and Sid encounter two mischievous possums named Crash (Seann William Scott) and Eddie (Josh Peck) who drive them nuts by playing Whac-A-Mole with them. Manny is depressed about being the last mammoth alive and her family, which has been killed, but is surprised when she encounters Ellie (Queen Latifah), the female mammoth who believes she is a possum and Crash and Eddie's adoptive sister. Sid invites her to tag along with the group to escape the flood, and she brings his brothers.






On their journey, the group encounters Olaf (Josh Gad), Elsa and Anna's childhood snowman, whom the later recreated and unknowingly brought to life. Olaf dreams of seeing and experiencing summer for the first time ("In Summer").



Jean and Sam deduce that the connection between the crimes in Berlin and Madrid is the Muppet tour, and the pair interrogate the Muppets at a police station to little success ("The Interrogation Song"). The instructions on the stolen key lead Constantine and Dominic to schedule the next show in Dublin, Ireland.

After a perilous ordeal with Cretaceous and Maelstrom while crossing a pond, Sid prompts Diego to encourage his to admit and faces his fears - Diego insists that "fear is for prey", so Sid points out that Diego is behaving as if he is the water's prey. They discover an area which Ellie recalls as the place of willow trees that shaped the mammoths where she was adopted. She finally realizes she is a mammoth and also expresses her suspicions about how different she was from other possums. Despite this bonding moment with Manny, Ellie distances herself from him when he suggests "saving their species". Manny and Ellie ultimately make up when they must co-operate to save the group when the ground cracks under their feet. Sid is kidnapped by a tribe of mini-sloths who believe Sid to be a fire worship king. Sid starts fire for them, and believes that he has finally found respect, but they plan to sacrifice him by tossing him into a volcano. Sid narrowly escapes. When Tink and Peri build a campfire to stay warm, Tink realizes that if she can make it warm, Peri can make it cold at Pixie Hollow. After Dewey and his pet snowy lynx, Fiona save Tink and Peri from a near death experience, he tells the sisters that Tink has to go home. The sisters realize that they might never see each other again, but Tink comes up with a plan. When the three people reach the border, Tink whispers to Peri to meet her at the border tomorrow.

When Tink returns home, she asks her friends Clank (Jeff Bennett) and Bobble (Rob Paulsen) for help. Later, Fawn and some of her other friends; Iridessa (Raven-Symoné), Rosetta (Megan Hilty), Silvermist (Lucy Liu), and Vidia (Pamela Adlon) learn about Tink's sister and excited at the prospect of meeting her (Peri) decide to help Tink.


As the tour reaches Dublin, Walter discovers that Dominic and Constantine had been giving away show tickets and bribing critics and journalists to ensure a packed house and write great reviews, and Fozzie Bear (Eric Jacobson) notices the resemblance between Kermit and Constantine. The two discover that Constantine has taken Kermit's place. Constantine sees that they have found out, and attacks Walter and Fozzie, but Animal fends him off and the three manage to escape by hopping onto the freight train. They then figure that the best course of action is to go to Siberia and rescue Kermit.




Tink arrives at the border with Clank and Bobble pulling along a snowmaking machine. Peri arrives too with her friends, pulling along a big ice cube with Slush (Benjamin Diskin), a glacier fairy.
Now able to keep Peri cold enough, Peri crosses the border to the warm side of Pixie Hollow. Peri meets Tink's other friends, which Rosetta gives her a periwinkle flower. Anna arrives at the ice palace and found Elsa, who stills fears hurting her sister.



When Anna insists that we can unfreeze the kingdom, she becomes agitated and her powers leash out, accidentally striking Anna in the heart ("For the First Time in Forever (Reprise)"). Tink notices Peri's wings wilting. The snowmaker was running out of ice, and there wasn't enough snow to keep Peri cold, so Tink and Peri return to the border. Milori appears and instructs Peri how to fix her wings. Queen Clarion (Anjelica Huston) arrives too, and sadly explains to the sisters that they can never see each other again and that it was her who created the rule that warm and cold fairies should remain apart. As the sisters leave, the snowmaker gets knocked by Milori into the stream, and creates a snowstorm. Elsa creates a giant snow monster named Marshmallow (Paul Briggs) that throws Anna out of the palace.


Later that day, Clarion and Milori tries to make Tink and Peri understand why the rule about not crossing the border was so important. They are told the story of two fairies who met and fell in love. One of them was a winter fairy and the other was from the warm seasons. They met every sunset at the border, where spring touches winter. But as their love grew stronger, they wished to be together and share each other's worlds. They disregarded the dangers across the border. One of them broke a wing, for which there is no cure. From that day, Clarion decreed that fairies must never again cross the border and Milori agreed that their worlds should forever remain apart. During the Dublin performance, Dominic steals a locket from the Irish National Bank and during the climax of the performance, Constantine proposes to Piggy onstage; she accepts, and the pair intending to plan a wedding to be held at the Tower of London, where the Crown Jewels are kept. Arriving in London, Constantine and Dominic conspire to use the wedding as a distraction. Before the wedding, Piggy contemplates her impending marriage and future with who she assumes is her true love, Kermit ("Something So Right").
That night, Kristoff introduces Anna and Olaf to the trolls, his adoptive family ("Fixer Upper"). Pabbie explains that Anna has struck by Elsa. Unless it can be thawed by an "act of true love", Anna will become frozen solid forever. Believing that only Hans can save her with a kiss, Kristoff races back with her to the palace.




Hans is in search of Anna with the Duke's thugs and arrive at the ice palace. They defeat Marshmallow and attempt to kill Elsa, thinking it'll end the winter, but she subdues them. Elsa is knocked unconscious by a falling chandelier and Hans brings her to the castle, where she's imprisoned in the cell. He pleads with Elsa to undo the winter curse, but she admits she doesn't know how.

Fozzie, Walter, and Animal reach the Gulag on the night of the annual performance and inform Kermit of Constantine's plot, and Kermit uses the prison show as a front to allow them, himself, and all the prisoners to escape, and they head to England, much to Nadya's dismay. Sid finds Manny and tells the others about his experience but none are convinced. The herd find a field of hot geysers, which separate Manny, Sid, and Diego from Ellie, Crash, and Eddie when they argue about which way to go through it.

Anna reunites with Hans and begs him to kiss her to break the curse. Hans reveals that his true intention in marrying her is to seize control of Arendelle's throne. Leaving Anna, he charges Elsa with treason for her younger sister's apparent death. But Elsa escaped from the castle.

The trapped snowmaker begins to freeze the Autumn Woods. Clarion, Tink, her friends, and the seasons' ministers arrive at the waterfall to find Clank and Bobble attempting to free the snowmaker. They succeeded in pushing the machine down the waterfall, but that it isn't over. Tink shows that there's a freeze coming. Clarion told everyone to save Pixie Hollow and the tree or the freeze will kill the tree, eternally, stopping the flow of pixie dust and therefore making it impossible for fairies for fly. All warm nature fairies journey to the tree. All fairies try everything they can to protect the tree and Tink checking that her furry and insect friends are all snugged up comfy. Tink then notices that a flower that Peri had covered in frost is still alive, despite its cold surroundings.



The four Muppets infiltrate the Tower as the wedding gets underway, and Dominic (with the help of Bobby Benson's (David Rudman) Baby Band) uses the stolen key and locket to disable the security systems protecting the jewels and successfully steals them. Tink flew straight to the Winter Woods and ask Gliss and Peri why the flower was still alive. Gliss explains that the frost carries warm air inside, and Peri suggests that they could frost the tree before the freeze comes. Tink, Peri, and the frost fairies rode Fiona to London.



Kermit interrupts the ceremony and reveals Constantine's true identity to be nothing more than an impostor.

Meanwhile, Olaf comes across Anna and reveals that Kristoff cares about her; they then escape onto the fjord.

When the flood comes, Manny saves Ellie from drowning as she is caught in the cave (due to falling rocks), while Diego overcomes his fear of water to save Sid, Crash, and Eddie. At the tree, Clank, Bobble, and Tink's other friends try to place some blankets on the branches, but the strong winds blow them away. To Clarion's fear and disappointment, the plan is failing but then Tink, Peri and some of her friends arrive explain the power of the frost to Clarion, and they get right to work. Constantine escapes and takes Piggy as his hostage and flees to a waiting honeymoon helicopter out on the Tower roof. He tries to take flight with Piggy, but Kermit jumps aboard and intercepts while the rest of the Muppets climb atop each other as a "Muppet Ladder" to stop the escape in its track. Cretaceous and Maelstrom arrive, but due to Manny's quick thinking, they are finished off by a rock which falls on them, killing them both. The other mammals are at the mercy of the water currents. Spike realizes that the tree is too big for the others to finish in time. However, Tink spots Milori, Dewey, and the rest of the winter fairies who came to help frost everything everything else that isn't frozen. Hans confronts Elsa, telling her Anna is dead because of her. In Elsa's despair, the storm suddenly ceases.



Accomplished of frosting the whole Hollow, Milori states that they've done all they can. Milori warns the fairies that the freeze is upon them and they must take cover including Clarion who his gives his cape to so she can keep warm, revealing that he has a broken wing (hence why he flies around on a snowy owl). Milori then orders all the winter fairies to stand guard all over the tree. Meanwhile, Scrat climbs up the glacier and at the top sticks the acorn he has into the ice. Kristoff and Anna give the chance to locate each other. Nevertheless, Anna, seeing that Hans is about to kill Elsa with his sword, throws herself between the two just as she freezes solid, blocking Hans's attack. Kermit knocks Constantine out, with the help of an irate Piggy. The glacier began to form a crack, which widens into a crevasse, diverting the flood and saving the herd. Scrat is then washed away in the torrents. Constantine and Dominic are arrested. As Elsa grieves for her sister, Anna begins to thaw. Anna's decision to sacrifice herself to save her sister constitutes an "act of true love." Realizing love is the key to the secret. Elsa thaws the kingdom and helps Olaf survive on summer.



Some time later, the freeze begins to melt and pixie dust begins to flow again. All the fairies celebrate, however Tink reveals that he had broken a wing when she flies into the Winter Woods and warns Peri to go back to the Winter Woods before her wings wilt. As the sisters hold hands and say goodbye, they reunite their wings and an explosion of pure sparkly light bursts from their wings, slowly magically healing Tink's broken wing. Clarion and Milori decide to get rid of the rule so that everyone can be together and kiss romantically revealing that they were the fairies that fell in love in the story.


Walter apologizes to Kermit for not noticing that he has been replaced. Nadya arrives in London and attempts to arrest Kermit once more for initiating the prison escape and "break her heart." The Muppets express her if she arrests him, she will have to take all of them as well. Nadya relents, allowing Kermit to go free and belongs with them and drops the charges. A herd of mammoths shows up, but Manny and Ellie decide to remain together anyway, taking Sid, Diego, and the opossum brothers along. Sid encounters the mini-sloths again – they believe Sid stopped the flood and invite him to be their leader. Diego, surprised to see the min-sloths are real, convinces Sid to stay with the others, reluctantly admitting that Sid is a viral part of their 'herd'.


From that day on, warm fairies can cross over the border into the Winter Woods (after they have their wings frosted over to preserve them). Hans is deported to the Southern Isles to face punishment for his crimes against the royal family of Arendelle, while Elsa cuts off trade with Weselton. Friendship in Pixie Hollow becomes whole again as Clarion & Milori and Rosetta & Sled begin their romantic relationships and the sisters reconcile and soon realize that they are half of each other. Elsa promises never to shut the gates again.

The Muppet tour concludes at the Gulag where Constantine is part of the Gulag show ("Together Again"). Nadya, apparently having been promised a solo by Kermit, prepares to sing but is cut off by the film's "The End" logo. The epilogue shows Scrat having a near death experience after falling into the fissure. He enters a heaven full of acorns. Suddenly, he finds himself torn away. He unhappily wakes up, having been resuscitated by Sid, who he proceeds to viciously attack.
In the credits scene, Clank overcomes his fear of glaciers through the help of Slush.
Plot in The Lion King
In the Pride Lands of Africa, a lion rules over the animal kingdom from Pride Rock. King Mufasa and Queen Sarabi's newborn son, Simba, is presented to the assembled animals by Rafiki, a mandrill who serves as shaman and advisor. Mufasa shows young Simba the Pride Lands and explains to him the responsibilities of kingship and the "circle of life" which connects all living things. Mufasa's younger brother, Scar, covets the throne and plots to eliminate Mufasa and Simba so he may become king. He tricks Simba and his best friend Nala—to whom Simba is betrothed—into exploring a forbidden elephants' graveyard, where they are attacked by three spotted hyenas who are in league with Scar. Mufasa is alerted to the danger by his majordomo, the hornbill Zazu, and rescues the cubs. Though angry with Simba, Mufasa forgives him and explains that the great kings of the past watch over them from the night sky, from which he will one day watch over Simba.
Scar sets a trap for his brother and nephew, luring Simba into a gorge and having the hyenas drive a large herd of wildebeest into a stampede that will trample him. He informs Mufasa of Simba's peril, knowing the king will rush to save his son. Mufasa saves Simba but ends up hanging perilously from the gorge's cliffside and is betrayed by Scar, who pushes him off the cliff to his death. Scar convinces Simba that the tragedy was Simba's own fault and advises him to flee the kingdom. He orders the hyenas to kill the cub, but Simba escapes. Scar tells the pride that both Mufasa and Simba were killed in the stampede and steps forward as the new king, allowing a large pack of hyenas to live in the Pride Lands.
Simba collapses in a desert and is rescued by Timon and Pumbaa, a meerkat and warthog who are fellow outcasts. Simba grows up in the jungle with his two new friends, living a carefree life under the motto "hakuna matata" ("no worries" in Swahili). Now a young adult, Simba rescues Timon and Pumbaa from a hungry lioness who turns out to be Nala. She and Simba reunite and fall in love, and she urges him to return home, telling him the Pride Lands have become a drought-stricken wasteland under Scar's reign. Feeling guilty over his father's death, Simba refuses and storms off. He encounters Rafiki, who tells him that Mufasa's spirit lives on in Simba. Simba is visited by the ghost of Mufasa in the night sky, who tells him he must take his rightful place as king. Realizing he can no longer run from his past, Simba decides to return home.
Aided by his friends, Simba sneaks past the hyenas at Pride Rock and confronts Scar after he strikes Sarabi. Scar taunts Simba over his role in Mufasa's death and backs him to the edge of the rock, where he reveals to him that he murdered Mufasa. Enraged, Simba pins Scar to the ground and forces him to reveal the truth to the rest of the pride. Timon, Pumbaa, Rafiki, Zazu, and the lionesses fend off the hyenas while Scar, attempting to escape, is cornered by Simba at the top of Pride Rock. Scar begs for mercy and attempts to blame the hyenas for his actions; Simba spares his life but orders him to leave the Pride Lands forever. Scar attacks his nephew, but Simba manages to toss him from the top of the rock. Scar survives the fall but is killed by the hyenas, who overheard him betray them to Simba. With his enemies gone, Simba takes over the kingship as the rains begin to fall, restoring life to the land.
Later, with Pride Rock restored to its former glory, Rafiki presents Simba and Nala's newborn cub to the assembled animals, continuing the circle of life.

Production
Development
Origins
Walt Disney Productions first began exploring a possible live action/animation biography film of author and poet Hans Christian Andersen sometime in late 1937 before the December premiere of its film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, the first feature-length hand-drawn animated film ever made. In March 1940, Walt Disney suggested a co-production to film producer Samuel Goldwyn, where Goldwyn's studio would shoot the live-action sequences of Andersen's life and Disney's studio would animate Andersen's fairy tales. The animated sequences would be based on some of Andersen's best known works, such as The Little Mermaid, The Little Match Girl, The Steadfast Tin Soldier, The Snow Queen, Thumbelina, The Ugly Duckling, The Red Shoes, and The Emperor's New Clothes. However, the studio encountered difficulty with The Snow Queen, as it could not find a way to adapt and relate the Snow Queen character to modern audiences. Even as far back as the 1930s and 1940s, it was clear that the source material contained great cinematic possibilities, but the Snow Queen character proved to be too problematic. After the United States entered World War II, the studio began to focus on making wartime propaganda, which caused development on the Disney–Goldwyn project to grind to a halt in 1942. Goldwyn went on to produce his own live-action film version in 1952, entitled Hans Christian Andersen, with Danny Kaye as Andersen, Charles Vidor directing, Moss Hart writing, and Frank Loesser penning the songs. All of Andersen's fairy tales were, instead, told in song and ballet in live-action, like the rest of the film. It went on to receive six Academy Award nominations the following year. Back at Disney, The Snow Queen, along with other Andersen fairy tales (including The Little Mermaid), were shelved.
Later efforts
In the late 1990s, Walt Disney Feature Animation started developing a new adaptation of The Snow Queen after the tremendous success of their recent films during the Disney Renaissance era (1989 - 1999), but the project was scrapped completely in late 2002, when Glen Keane reportedly quit the project and went on to work on another project which became Tangled & Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn (2010). Even before then, Harvey Fierstein pitched his version of the story to Disney's executives, but was turned down. Paul and Gaëtan Brizzi, Dick Zondag and Dave Goetz reportedly all tried their hand at it, but failed. After a number of unsuccessful attempts from 2000 to 2002, Disney shelved the project again. During one of those attempts, Michael Eisner, then-chairman and chief executive officer of The Walt Disney Company, offered his support to the project and suggested doing it with Oscar-winning director John Lasseter at Pixar Animation Studios after the then-expected renewal of Pixar's contract with Disney. But negotiations between Pixar and Disney collapsed in January 2004 and that contract was never renewed. Instead, Eisner's successor Bob Iger negotiated Disney's purchase of Pixar in January 2006 for $7.4 billion, and Lasseter was promoted to chief creative officer of both Pixar and Disney Animation.
The next attempt started in 2008, when Lasseter was able to convince Chris Buck (who co-directed the 1999 film Tarzan for the studio) to return to Walt Disney Feature Animation from Sony Pictures Animation (where he had recently co-directed the Oscar-nominated 2007 film Surf's Up); that September, Buck pitched several ideas to Lasseter, one of which was The Snow Queen. Buck later revealed that his initial inspiration for The Snow Queen was not the Andersen fairy tale itself, but that he wanted "to do something different on the definition of true love." "Disney had already done the 'kissed by a prince' thing, so I thought it was time for something new," he recalled. It turned out Lasseter had been interested in The Snow Queen for a long time; back when Pixar was working with Disney on Toy Story in the 1990s, he saw and was "blown away" by some of the pre-production art from Disney's prior attempts. Development began under the title Anna and the Snow Queen, which was planned to be traditionally animated. According to Josh Gad, he first became involved with the film at that early stage, when the plot was still relatively close to the original Andersen fairy tale and Megan Mullally was going to play Elsa. By early 2010, the project entered development hell once again, when the studio again failed to find a way to make the story and the Snow Queen character work.
Revitalization
On December 22, 2011, following the success of Tangled & Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn, Disney announced a new title for the film, Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret, and a release date of November 27, 2013. A month later, it was confirmed that the film would be a computer-animated feature in stereoscopic 3D, instead of the originally intended hand-drawn animation. Anderson-Lopez and Lopez joined the project and started writing songs for Frozen in January 2012. On March 5, 2012, it was announced that Buck would be directing, with Lasseter and Peter Del Vecho producing.
After Disney decided to advance The Snow Queen into development again, one of the main challenges Buck and Del Vecho faced was the character of the Snow Queen, who was then a villain in their drafts. The studio has a tradition of screening animated films in development every twelve weeks, then holding lengthy "notes sessions" in which its directors and screenwriters from different projects provide extensive "notes" on each other's work.
Buck and Del Vecho presented their storyboards to Lasseter, and the entire production team adjourned to a conference to hear his thoughts on the project. Art director Michael Giaimo later acknowledged Lasseter as the "game changer" of the film: "I remember John saying that the latest version of The Snow Queen story that Chris Buck and his team had come up with was fun, very light-hearted. But the characters didn't resonate. They aren't multi-faceted. Which is why John felt that audiences wouldn't really be able to connect with them."
The production team then addressed the film's problems, drafting several variations on The Snow Queen story until the characters and story felt relevant. At that stage, the first major breakthrough was the decision to rewrite the film's protagonist, Anna (who was based on the Gerda character from The Snow Queen), as the younger sibling of Elsa, thereby effectively establishing a family dynamic between the characters. This was unusual in that relationships between sisters are rarely used as a major plot element in American animated films, with the notable exception of Disney's Lilo & Stitch (2002). To fully explore the unique dynamics of such relationships, Disney Animation convened a "Sister Summit," at which women from all over the studio who grew up with sisters were asked to discuss their relationships with their sisters.
In January 2012, after the critical and commercial successes of Tinker Bell & Looney Tunes, Muppets & Fairies Ever After and Tinker Bell's Summer Rescue; Walt Disney Animation Studios negotiated a deal with Buck to direct and write a fifty-third feature and it will share with Frozen a year later. It was confirmed that the film would be a computer-animated feature in stereoscopic 3D, animation, and live action, similar to the previous films. Taking on the form of a caper, the film was inspired by both The Great Muppet Caper and The Muppets Take Manhattan as well as the Disney animated classics and the Disney Renaissance films.
Writing
In March 2012, Jennifer Lee, one of the screenwriters of Wreck-It Ralph, was brought in as the film's screenwriter by Del Vecho. Lee later explained that as Wreck-It Ralph was wrapping up, she was giving notes on other projects, and "we kind of really connected with what we were thinking."
According to Lee, several core concepts were already in place from Buck and Del Vecho's early work, such as the film's "frozen heart" hook: "That was a concept and the phrase ... an act of true love will thaw a frozen heart." They already knew the ending involved true love in the sense of the emotional bond between siblings, not romance, in that "Anna was going to save Elsa. We didn't know how or why." Lee said Edwin Catmull, president of Disney Animation, told her early on about the film's ending: "First and foremost, no matter what you have to do to the story, do it. But you have to earn that ending. If you do, it will be great. If you don't, it will suck."
Before Lee was brought on board, another screenwriter had made a first pass at a script, and Anderson-Lopez and Lopez tried to write songs for that script but none worked and all were cut. Then "the whole script imploded," which gave the songwriters the opportunity "to put a lot of their DNA" into the new script that Lee was writing. The production team "essentially started over and ... had 17 months," which resulted in a very "intense schedule" and implied "a lot of choices had to be made fast."
The earlier versions differed sharply from the final version. In the original script the songwriters first saw, Elsa was evil from the start; she kidnapped Anna from her own wedding to intentionally freeze her heart, then later descended upon the town with an army of snowmen with the objective of recapturing Anna to freeze her heart properly. By the time Lee came in, the first act included Elsa deliberately striking Anna in the heart with her freezing powers; then "the whole second act was about Anna trying to get to Hans and to kiss him and then Elsa trying to stop her." Buck revealed that the original plot attempted to make Anna sympathetic by focusing on her frustration as being perceived as the "spare" in relation to the "heir," Elsa. The original plot also had different pacing, in that it was "much more of an action adventure" than a musical or a comedy.
One major breakthrough was the composition of the song "Let It Go" by songwriters Lopez and Anderson-Lopez, which forced the production team to reconceptualize and rewrite Elsa as a far more complex, vulnerable, and sympathetic character. In The Daily Telegraph's words, instead of the villain envisioned by the producers, the songwriters saw Elsa as "a scared girl struggling to control and come to terms with her gift." Lee recalled: "Bobby and Kristen said they were walking in Prospect Park and they just started talking about what would it feel like to be Elsa. Forget villain. Just what it would feel like. And this concept of letting out who she is, that she's kept to herself for so long, and she's alone and free, but then the sadness of the fact that the last moment is she's alone. It’s not a perfect thing, but it's powerful." Del Vecho explained that "Let It Go" changed Elsa into a person "ruled by fear and Anna was ruled by her own love of other people and her own drive," which in turn caused Lee to "rewrite the first act and then that rippled through the entire movie. So that was when we really found the movie and who these characters were."
Another major breakthrough was developing the plot twist that Prince Hans would be revealed as the film's true villain only near the end. Hans was not even in the earliest drafts, then at first was not a villain, and after becoming one, was revealed to be evil much earlier in the plot. Del Vecho said, "We realized what was most important was if we were going to make the ending so surprising, you had to believe at one point that Hans was the answer ... when he's not the answer, it's Kristoff ... If you can get the audience to leap ahead and think they have figured it out, you can surprise them by turning it the other way." Lee acknowledged that Hans was written as "sociopathic" and "twisted" throughout the final version. For example, Hans mirrors the behavior of the other characters: "He mirrors Anna and he's goofy with her ... The Duke of Weselton is a jerk, so he's a jerk back. And with Elsa he's a hero." It was difficult to lay the foundation for Anna's belated turn to Kristoff without also making Hans' betrayal of Anna too predictable, in that the audience had to "feel ... her feeling something but not quite understanding it ... Because the minute it is understood, it deflated." At one point, Anna openly flirted with Kristoff upon first meeting him, but that was changed after Walt Disney Studios chairman Alan Horn pointed out that it would confuse and annoy viewers since Anna was already engaged to Hans.
Lee had to work through the issue of how to write Anna's personality, in that some of her colleagues felt Anna should be more dysfunctional and co-dependent, like Vanellope von Schweetz in Wreck-It Ralph. Lee disagreed with that position, but it took her almost a year to figure out how to convincingly articulate "this is what Anna's journey is. No more than that. No less than that." In the end, Lee successfully argued Anna's journey should be presented as a simple coming-of-age story, "where she goes from having a naive view of life and love – because she's lonely – to the most sophisticated and mature view of love, where she's capable of the ultimate love, which is sacrifice." Lee also had to let go of some ideas that she liked, such as a scene portraying Anna and Elsa's relationship as teenagers, which did not work because they needed to maintain the separation between Anna and Elsa.
To construct Anna and Elsa's relationship as sisters, Lee found inspiration in her own relationship with her older sister. Lee said her older sister was "a big inspiration for Elsa," called her "my Elsa" in an op-ed in the Los Angeles Times, and walked the red carpet with her at the 86th Academy Awards. Lee explained, "having to ... lose each other and then rediscover each other as adults, that was a big part of my life."
The production team also turned Olaf from Elsa's obnoxious sidekick into Anna's comically innocent sidekick. Lee's initial response to the original "mean" version of Olaf had been, "Kill the f-ing snowman," and she found Olaf by far "the hardest character to deal with."
The problem of how exactly Anna would save Elsa at the film's climax was solved by story artist John Ripa. At the story meeting where Ripa pitched his take on the story, the response was silence until Lasseter said, "I've never seen anything like that before," which was followed by a standing ovation.
Along the way, the production team went through drafts where the first act included far more detail than what ended up in the final version, such as a troll with a Brooklyn accent who would have explained the backstory behind Elsa's magical powers, and a regent for whom Lee was hoping to cast comedian Louis C.K. After all those details were thoroughly "over-analyzed", they were excised because they amounted to a "much more complex story than really we felt like we could fit in this 90-minute film." As Del Vecho put it, "the more we tried to explain things at the beginning, the more complicated it got."
In June 2012, the film was originally commissioned under the title Pixie Fairies & Muppets: The Global Winter Woods.
In September 20, 2012, the title of the film was changed from Pixie Fairies & Muppets: The Global Winter Woods to Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret.
Following Lee's extensive involvement in Frozen's development process and her close work with director Buck and songwriters Lopez and Anderson-Lopez, studio heads Lasseter and Catmull promoted her to director of the film alongside Buck in August 2012. Her promotion was officially announced on November 29, 2012, making Lee the first woman to direct a full-length animated motion picture produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios. She primarily worked on story while Buck focused on animation. Lee later stated that she was "really moved by a lot of what Chris had done" and that they "shared a vision" of the story, having "very similar sensibilities".
By November 2012, the production team thought they had finally "cracked" the puzzle of how to make the film's story work, but according to Del Vecho, in late February 2013, it was realized that the film still "wasn't working", which necessitated even more rewriting of scenes and songs from February through June 2013. He explained, "we rewrote songs, we took out characters and changed everything, and suddenly the movie gelled. But that was close. In hindsight, piece of cake, but during, it was a big struggle." Looking back, Anderson-Lopez joked she and Lopez thought at the time they could end up working as "birthday party clowns" if the final product "pulled ... down" their careers and recalled that "we were really writing up until the last minute." In June (five months before the already-announced release date), the songwriters finally got the film working when they composed the song "For the First Time in Forever", which, in Lopez's words, "became the linchpin of the whole movie."
That month, Disney conducted test screenings of the half-completed film with two audiences (one made up of families and the other made up of adults) in Phoenix, Arizona, at which Lasseter and Catmull were personally present. Lee recalled that it was the moment when they realized they "had something, because the reaction was huge." Catmull, who had instructed Lee at the outset to "earn that ending," told her afterwards, "you did it".
Casting
Actress Kristen Bell (Veronica Mars) was cast as the voice of Anna on March 5, 2012. Lee admitted that Bell's casting selection was influenced after the filmmakers listened to a series of vocal tracks Bell had recorded when she was young, where the actress performed several songs from The Little Mermaid, including "Part of Your World". Bell completed her recording sessions while she was pregnant, and subsequently re-recorded some of her character's lines after her pregnancy, as her voice had deepened. Bell was called in to re-record dialogue for the film "probably 20 times," which is normal for lead roles in Disney animated films whose scripts are still evolving. As for her approach to the role of Anna, Bell enthused that she had "dreamed of being in a Disney animated film" since she was four years old, saying, "I always loved Disney animation, but there was something about the females that was unattainable to me. Their posture was too good and they were too well-spoken, and I feel like I really made this girl much more relatable and weirder and scrappier and more excitable and awkward. I'm really proud of that."
Idina Menzel (Wicked), a Broadway veteran, was cast as Elsa. Menzel had formerly auditioned for Tangled & Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn, but did not get the part. However, Tangled's casting director, Jamie Sparer Roberts, preserved a recording of Menzel's performance on her iPhone, and on the basis of that, asked her to audition along with Bell for Frozen. Before they were officially cast, Menzel and Bell deeply impressed the directors and producers at an early table read; after reading the entire script out loud, they sang "Wind Beneath My Wings" together as a duet, since no music had been composed yet. Bell had suggested that idea when she visited Menzel at her California home to prepare together for the table read. The songwriters were also present for the table read; Anderson-Lopez said "Lasseter was in heaven" upon hearing Menzel and Bell sing in harmony, and from that moment forward, he insisted, "Kristen Bell and Idina Menzel have to be in the movie!" Lee said, "They sung it like sisters and what you mean to me, and there wasn't a dry eye in the house after they sang." Between December 2012 and June 2013, Mae Whitman, Steve Whitmire, Lucy Liu, Eric Jacobson, Raven-Symoné, Dave Goelz, Megan Hilty (replacement for Kristin Chenoweth), Bill Barretta, Pamela Adlon, David Rudman, Angela Bartys, Matt Vogel, Peter Linz, Rob Paulsen, Jeff Bennett, Jane Horrocks, Jesse McCartney (cameo), and Anjelica Huston will reprise their roles while the casting of additional roles was announced, including Lucy Hale (American Idol) as Periwinkle the snow fairy and Tinker Bell's fraternal twin sister, Ray Romano as Manny the woolly mammoth, John Leguizamo as Sid tha ground sloth, Denis Leary as Diego the saber-toothed tiger, Queen Latifah as Ellie the female woolly mammoth, Jonathan Groff (Glee) as Kristoff the ice harvester and Anna's love interest, Ricky Gervais (Night at the Museum) as Dominic/Number Two, Josh Gad (The Book of Mormon, Ice Age: Continental Drift) as Olaf the enchanted snowman, Timothy Dalton (James Bond) as Lord Milori of Winter, Santino Fontana (Broadway's Cinderella) as Prince Hans of the Southern Isles, Tina Fey (30 Rock) as Gulag prison guard Nadya, Matt Lanter (Star Wars: The Clone Wars) as Sled the winter sparrowman, Ty Burrell (Modern Family) as Interpol agent Jean Pierre Napoleon, Alan Tudyk (Ice Age, Wreck-It Ralph) as the Duke of Weselton, and Chris Williams (director of Bolt) as Oaken of Wandering Oaken's Trading Post & Sauna. Bret McKenzie returns as Kristen Anderson-Lopez, and Robert Lopez joined the project and started writing songs for the sequel. Joel McNeely and Christoph Beck return to compose the sequel, while John Powell (Bolt, How to Train Your Dragon) was hired to help them compose the film.
A 48-second sneak peek clip (starring Tinker Bell and her sister, Periwinkle) was released on March 19, 2013 and the second teaser trailer (starring Olaf the snowman and Sven the reindeer) for the movie was released on June 19, 2013 in movie theaters with Monsters University. In the same day, more cast were announced including Jeff Bennett (who also voiced Clank) as Dewey the Keeper of all knowledge, Matt Vogel (who voiced the other Muppet characters) as Constantine/Number One, the world's most dangerous frog, Seann William Scott & Josh Peck as Ellie's two opossum brothers, Crash & Eddie, Debby Ryan (Wizards of Waverly Place) and Grey DeLisle (who previously voiced Lyria and Viola) as Peri's close friends, Spike and Gliss, Jay Leno (The Jay Leno Show) as Fast Tony the armadillo, Will Arnett (The LEGO Movie) as the Lone Gunslinger Vulture, and Jemaine Clement (Rio, Despicable Me) as the Prison King.
An official trailer was released on September 26, 2013; showing with Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2; and a fourth and final trailer, which included scenes and songs from the film, was released on October 22, 2013.
Animation
Similar to Tangled & Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn, Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret employed a unique artistic style by blending together features of both computer-generated imagery (CGI) and traditional hand-drawn animation. From the beginning, Buck knew Giaimo was the best candidate to develop the style he had in mind – which would draw from the best Disney hand-drawn classics of the 1950s, the Disney Little Golden Books, and mid-century modern design – and persuaded him to come back to Disney to serve as the art director for Frozen. Buck, Lasseter, and Giaimo were all old friends who had first met at the California Institute of the Arts, and Giaimo had previously served as the art director for Disney's Pocahontas (1995), which Buck had worked on as a supervising animator.
To create the look of Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret, Giaimo began pre-production research by reading extensively about the entire region of Scandinavia and visiting the Danish-themed city of Solvang near Los Angeles, but eventually zeroed in on Norway in particular because "80 percent" of the visuals that appealed to him were from Norway. Disney eventually sponsored three research field trips. Animators and special effects specialists were dispatched to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, to experience walking, running, and falling in deep snow in a variety of types of attire, including long skirts (which both female and male personnel tried on); while lighting and arts teams visited an Ice Hotel in Quebec City, Quebec to study how light reflects and refracts on snow and ice. Finally, Giaimo and several artists traveled to Norway to draw inspiration from its mountains, fjords, architecture, and culture. "We had a very short time schedule for this film, so our main focus was really to get the story right but we knew that John Lasseter is keen on truth in the material and creating a believable world, and again that doesn't mean it's a realistic world – but a believable one. It was important to see the scope and scale of Norway, and important for our animators to know what it's like," Del Vecho said. "There is a real feeling of Lawrence of Arabia scope and scale to this," he finished.
During 2012, while Giaimo and the animators and artists conducted preparatory research and developed the film's overall look, the production team was still struggling to develop a compelling script, as explained above. That problem was not adequately solved until November 2012, and the script would later require even more significant revisions after that point. As a result, the single "most daunting" challenge facing the animation team was a short schedule of less than 12 months to turn Lee's still-evolving shooting script into an actual film. Other films like Pixar's Toy Story 2 had been successfully completed on even shorter schedules, but a short schedule necessarily meant "late nights, overtime, and stress." Lee estimated the total size of the entire team on Frozen to be around 600 to 650 people, "including around 70 lighting people, 70-plus animators," and 15 to 20 storyboard artists.
Del Vecho explained how the film's animation team was organized: "On this movie we do have character leads, supervising animators on specific characters. The animators themselves may work on multiple characters but it's always under one lead. I think it was different on Tangled & Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn, for example, but we chose to do it this way as we wanted one person to fully understand and develop their own character and then be able to impart that to the crew. Hyrum Osmond, the animator on Olaf, is quiet but he has a funny, wacky personality so we knew he'd bring a lot of comedy to it; Anna's animator, Becky Bresee, it's her first time leading a character and we wanted her to lead Anna." Acting coach Warner Loughlin was brought in to help the film's animators understand the characters they were creating. In order to get the general feeling of each scene, some animators did their own acting. "I actually film myself acting the scene out, which I find very helpful," said animation supervisor Rebecca Wilson Bresee. This helped her discover elements that made the scene feel real and believable. Elsa's supervising animator was Wayne Unten, who asked for that role because he was fascinated by the complexity of the character. Unten carefully developed Elsa's facial expressions in order to bring out her fear as contrasted against Anna's fearlessness. He also studied videos from Menzel's recording sessions and animated Elsa's breathing to match Menzel's breathing. Head of Animation, Lino DiSalvo, said, "The goal for the film was to animate the most believable CG characters you've ever seen."
Regarding the look and nature of the film's cinematography, Giaimo was greatly influenced by Jack Cardiff's (1914-2009) work in Black Narcissus. According to him, it lent a hyper-reality to the film: "Because this is a movie with such scale and we have the Norwegian fjords to draw from, I really wanted to explore the depth. From a design perspective, since I was stressing the horizontal and vertical aspects, and what the fjords provide, it was perfect. We encased the sibling story in scale." Ted D. McCord's (1900-1976) work in The Sound of Music was another major influence for Giaimo. It was also Giaimo's idea that Frozen should be filmed in the CinemaScope aspect ratio, which was approved by Lasseter. Giaimo also wanted to ensure that Norway's fjords, architecture and rosemaling folk art, were critical factors in designing the environment of Arendelle. Giaimo, whose background is in traditional animation, said that the art design environment represents a unity of character and environment and that he originally wanted to incorporate saturated colors, which is typically ill-advised in computer animation. For further authenticity, a live reindeer named Sage was brought into the studio for animators to study its movements and mannerisms for the character Sven.
Another important issue Giaimo insisted on addressing was costumes, in that he "knew from the start" it would be a "costume film." To realize that vision, he brought in character designer Jean Gillmore to act as a dedicated "costume designer". While traditional animation simply integrates costume design with character design and treats clothing as merely part of the characters, computer-generated animation regards costume as almost a separate entity with its own properties and behaviors – and Frozen required a level of as-yet untried detail, down to minutiae like fabrics, buttons, trim, and stitching. Gillmore explained that her "general approach was to meld the historic silhouettes of 1840 Western Europe (give or take), with the shapes and garment relationships and details of folk costume in early Norway, circa 19th century." This meant using primarily wool fabric with accents of velvet, linen, and silk. During production, Giaimo and Gillmore "ran around" supplying various departments with real-world samples to use as references; they were able to draw upon both the studio's own in-house library of fabric samples and the resources of Walt Disney Parks and Resorts' costume division in Fullerton, California. The film's "look development artists" (the Disney job title for texture artists) created the digitally painted simulation of the appearance of surfaces, while other departments dealt with movement, rigging and weight, thickness and lighting of textile animation.
During production, the film's English title was changed from The Snow Queen to Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret, a decision that drew comparisons to another Disney film, Tangled & Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn. Peter Del Vecho explained that "the title Frozen came up independently of the title Tangled. It's because, to us, it represents the movie. Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret plays on the level of ice and snow but also the frozen relationship, the frozen heart that has to be thawed. We don't think of comparisons between Tangled and Frozen, though." He also mentioned that the film will still retain its original title, The Snow Queen, in some countries: "because that just resonated stronger in some countries than Frozen. Maybe there's a richness to The Snow Queen in the country's heritage and they just wanted to emphasize that."
Technology development
The studio also developed several new tools to generate realistic and believable shots, particularly the heavy and deep snow and its interactions with the characters. Disney wanted an "all-encompassing" and organic tool to provide snow effects but not require switching between different methods. As noted above, several Disney artists and special effects personnel traveled to Wyoming to experience walking through deep snow. Dr. Kenneth Libbrecht, a professor from the California Institute of Technology, was invited to give lectures to the effects group on how snow and ice form, and why snowflakes are unique. Using this knowledge, the effects group created a snowflake generator that allowed them to randomly create 2,000 unique snowflake shapes for the film.
Another challenge that the studio had to face was to deliver shots of heavy and deep snow that both interacted believably with characters and had a realistic sticky quality. According to principal software engineer Andrew Selle, "Snow's not really a fluid. It’s not really a solid. It breaks apart. It can be compressed into snowballs. All of these different effects are very difficult to capture simultaneously." In order to achieve this, software engineers used advanced mathematics (the material point method) and physics, with assistance from mathematics researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles to create a snow simulator software application called Matterhorn. The tool was capable of depicting realistic snow in a virtual environment and was used in at least 43 scenes in the film, including several key sequences. Software engineer Alexey Stomakhin referred to snow as "an important character in the film," therefore it attracted special attention from the filmmakers. "When you stretch it, snow will break into chunks. Since snow doesn't have any connections, it doesn't have a mesh, it can break very easily. So that was an important property we took advantage of," explained Selle. "There you see Kristoff walking through and see his footprints breaking the snow into little pieces and chunk up and you see Anna being pulled out and the snow having packed together and broken into pieces. It's very organic how that happens. You don't see that they're pieces already – you see the snow as one thing and then breaking up." The tool also proved to be particularly useful in scenes involving characters walking through deep snow, as it ensured that the snow reacted naturally to each step.
Other tools designed to help artists complete complicated effects included Spaces, which allowed Olaf's deconstructible parts to be moved around and rebuilt, Flourish, which allowed extra movement such as leaves and twigs to be art-directed; Snow Batcher, which helped preview the final look of the snow, especially when characters were interacting with an area of snow by walking through a volume, and Tonic, which enabled artists to sculpt their characters' hair as procedural volumes. Tonic also aided in animating fur and hair elements such as Elsa's hair, which contains 420,000 computer-generated strands, while the average number for a real human being is only 100,000. The number of character rigs in Frozen is 312 and the number of simulated costumes also reached 245 cloth rigs, which were far beyond all other Disney films to date. Fifty effects artists and lighting artists worked together on the technology to create "one single shot" in which Elsa builds her ice palace. Its complexity required 30 hours to render each frame, with 4,000 computers rendering one frame at a time.
Besides 3D effects, the filmmakers also used 2D artwork and drawings for specific elements and sequences in the film, including Elsa's magic and snow sculptures, as well as freezing fountains and floors. The effects group created a "capture stage" where the entire world of Frozen gets displayed on monitors, which can be "filmed" on special cameras to operate a three-dimensional scene. "We can take this virtual set that's mimicking all of my actions and put it into any one of our scenes in the film," said technology manager Evan Goldberg.
Scandinavian and Sámi inspiration
The setting was principally based on Norway, and the cultural influences in the film come from Scandinavian culture. Several landmarks in Norway appear in the film, including the Akershus Fortress in Oslo, the Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim, and Bryggen in Bergen. Numerous other typical cultural Scandinavian elements are also included in the film, such as stave churches, trolls, Viking ships, a hot spring, Fjord horses, clothes, and food such as lutefisk. A maypole is also present in the film, as well as the brief appearance of runes in a book that Anna and Elsa's father opens to figure out where the trolls live. A scene where two men argue over whether to stack firewood bark up or bark down is a reference to the perennial Norwegian debate over how to stack firewood properly. The film also contains several elements specifically drawn from Sámi culture, such as the usage of reindeer for transportation and the equipment used to control these, clothing styles (the outfits of the ice cutters), and parts of the musical score. Decorations, such as those on the castle pillars and Kristoff's sled, are also in styles inspired by Sámi duodji decorations. During their field work in Norway, Disney's team, for inspiration, visited Rørosrein, a Sámi family-owned company in the village Plassje that produces reindeer meat and arranges tourist events. Arendelle was inspired by Nærøyfjord, a branch of Norway's longest fjord Sognefjorden, which has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site; while a castle in Oslo with beautiful hand-painted patterns on all four walls served as the inspiration for the kingdom's royal castle interior.
The filmmakers' trip to Norway provided essential knowledge for the animators to come up with the design aesthetic for the film in terms of color, light, and atmosphere. According to Giaimo, there were three important factors that they had acquired from the Norway research trip: the fjords, which are the massive vertical rock formations, and serve as the setting for the secluded kingdom of Arendelle; the medieval stave churches, whose rustic triangular rooflines and shingles inspired the castle compound; and the rosemaling folk art, whose distinctive paneling and grid patterns informed the architecture, decor, and costumes.

Soundtrack (November 25, 2013)
The songs for Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret were written and composed by Bret McKenzie and the husband-and-wife songwriting team of Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez, both of whom had previously worked with Walt Disney Animation Studios on Winnie the Pooh & Tinker Bell's Midsummer Rescue (2011), with Christophe Beck (Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn), Joel McNeely, who scored the three Disney Revival-themed films; and John Powell (Bolt) composing its score. It was revealed on September 13, 2013, that Sámi musician Fjode Fjellheim's Vuelie would be the film's opening song (right before the Muppets' We're Doing a Sequel), as it contains elements of the traditional Sámi singing style joik. The music producers recruited a Norwegian linguist to assist with the lyrics for a Old Norse song written during Elsa's coronation, and also traveled to Trondheim, Norway to record the Norwegian all-female girl choir, Cantus, for a piece inspired by traditional Sámi music.
For the orchestral film score, composer Christophe Beck gave homage to the Norway- and Sápmi-inspired setting by employing regional instruments, such as the bukkehorn, and traditional vocal techniques, such as kulning. Recording took place at Abbey Road Studios in London with a 120 piece orchestra, a 100-voice choir, including native Norwegian Christine Hals, and a wide array of ethnic instruments, including Celtic harp, Uilleann pipes, penny whistle, and violin soloist Máiréad Nesbitt. Beck worked with Lopez and Anderson-Lopez on incorporating their songs into arrangements in the score. The trio's goal "was to create a cohesive musical journey from beginning to end."
The info for the Secret of the Wings soundtrack, released by Intrada Records, will be coming soon.

Bloomberg Business reported in March 2014 that outside analysts had projected the film's total cost at somewhere around $323 million to $323 million to $350 million for production, marketing, and distribution, and had also projected that the film would $1.3 billion in revenue from box office ticket sales, digital downloads, discs, and television rights.
Critical response
Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret opened to highly positive reviews, with critics praising its visuals, themes, musical numbers, screenplay, and voice acting (especially that of Kristen Bell, Idina Menzel, and Josh Gad) while several comparing it favorably to the films of the Disney Renaissance, particularly The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, and The Lion King. Some journalists felt that the film's success marked a second Disney Renaissance. Review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes gives the film a score of 89% based on reviews from 216 critics, with an average score of 7.7/10, classifying it as "Certified Fresh". The site's consensus reads: "Joyful, beautifully animated, fast-paced, and smartly written, Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret adds another worthy entry to the Disney canon that is stocked with singalong songs to look as iridescently gorgeous as the winter wonderland." Another review aggregator, Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 top "generally favorable reviews" from mainstream critics, calculated a score of 74 based on 43 reviews. Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret was named the seventh best film of 2013 by Richard Corliss of Time and Kyle Smith of the New York Post. CinemaScore gave Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret an "A+" on an A+ to F scale, based on polls conducted during the opening weekend.
Rating
The film was rated PG: "Parental Guidance Suggested." (for some mild action, rude humor, peril, language, and thematic elements) by the Motion Picture Association of America.
Some material may not be suitable for children. Parents urged to give "parental guidance". May contain some material parents might not like for their young children.
Perceived LGBT parallels
Several viewers outside the film industry, such as evangelical pastors and commentators, argued that Frozen promotes normalization of homosexuality, while others believed that the main character, Elsa, represents a positive image of LGBT youth, viewing the film and the song "Let It Go" as a metaphor for coming out. These claims were met with mixed reactions from both audiences and the LGBT community. When asked about perceptions of a homosexual undertone in the film, Lee said, "We know what we made. But at the same time I feel like once we hand the film over, it belongs to the world, so I don't like to say anything, and let the fans talk. I think it's up to them." She also mentioned that Disney films were made in different eras and were all celebrated for different reasons, but a 2013 film would have a "2013 point of view".
Accolades
Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret was nominated for various awards and won a number of them, including several for Best Animated Feature. The song "Let It Go" was particularly praised. The film was nominated for two Golden Globes at the 71st Golden Globe Awards and won for Best Animated Feature, becoming the first Walt Disney Animation Studios film to win in this category. It also won two Academy Awards for Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song ("Let It Go"), the BAFTA Award for Best Animated Film at the British Academy Film Awards (BAFTA), five Annie Awards (including Best Animated Feature), and two Critics' Choice Awards for Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song ("Let It Go"). It received other similar nominations at the Satellite Awards, and various critics' groups and circles. At the 57th Annual Grammy Awards, the Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret soundtrack won the Grammy Award for Best Compilation Soundtrack For Visual Media and was nominated for Best Score Soundtrack For Visual Media (with credits going to Christophe Beck as composer); the song "Let It Go" won the award for Best Song Written For Visual Media, with credits going to Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez as songwriters and Idina Menzel as performer.

During the spring and summer of 2014, several journalists observed that Frozen was unusually catchy in comparison to the vast majority of films, in that many children in both the U.S. and the UK were watching Frozen so many times that they now knew all the songs by heart and kept singing them again and again at every opportunity, to the distress of their hapless parents, teachers, and classmates. Among the celebrities who have disclosed that they are the parent of a Frozen-obsessed child are UK prime minister David Cameron as well as actors Amy Adams, Ben Affleck, Kevin Costner and Vince Vaughn. When Terry Gross brought up this phenomenon with songwriters Lopez and Anderson-Lopez in an April 2014 interview on NPR, they explained there was simply no way they could have known how popular their work on Frozen would become. They were "just trying to tell a story that resonated" and "that didn't suck."
In May, columnist Joel Stein of Time magazine wrote about his young son Laszlo's frustration with the inescapable "cultural assault" of Frozen at preschool and all social and extracurricular activities, and how he had arranged for a Skype call with lead actress Bell after Laszlo began asking why the film was made. When Laszlo asked whether Bell knew when she made Frozen that it would take over kids' lives, she replied: "I did not know that people would not let it go. No pun intended." In a December 2014 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Lee acknowledged that she had transitioned from thanking people when they expressed their appreciation for Frozen to having to apologize when they said "we're still listening to those songs" (with their children). Lee also said that she used the film and its strong female characters to inspire her own daughter, who had experienced bullying at school, and admitted that she herself as a child was bullied as well; thus, they had managed to be true to themselves like Anna and Elsa.
In a 2014 mid-year report of the 100 most-used baby names conducted by BabyCenter, Elsa was ranked 88; it was the first time the name had appeared on the site's chart. Sarah Barrett, managing director of the site, explained that while the film's popular heroine is called Anna, "Elsa offers a more unique name and is also a strong female role model." Many parents revealed that their choices of name were "heavily influenced" by the siblings. Vice president of Disney UK Anna Hill later commented that "We're delighted that Elsa is a popular name for babies and it's lovely to hear that for many families, it is actually their siblings who have chosen it," and that "Elsa's fight to overcome her fears and the powerful strength of the family bond" were relatable to many families. On 2014 year-end lists issued by Google, Frozen was the most searched movie of 2014. On the Google Play Store, Frozen and its soundtrack album were also named Movie of the Year and Album of the Year respectively, i.e. the best-selling title in their respective areas. Frozen was also the second most illegally downloaded film title of 2014 via BitTorrent file sharing protocol, with around 30 million downloads. Elsa has become very popular in the cosplaying community. One of the best cosplayers currently, Anna Faith, is well known for cosplaying as Elsa at charities, comic-cons, and other events.
After Disney announced in March 2015 that a feature-length sequel was in development, Agence France-Presse and the Toronto Star both published stories gently mocking the horror of parents everywhere at the news that another Frozen "sensory and financial assault" was in the pipeline.
________
Franchise
In January 2014, Iger announced that Frozen would be adapted into a Broadway stage musical. In the space of a single business quarter, Iger went from speaking of Frozen's "franchise potential" (in February 2014) to saying that it was "probably" one of Disney's "top five franchises" (in May 2014). The film's massive popularity resulted in an unusually severe merchandise shortage in the United States and several other industrialized countries in April 2014, which caused resale prices for higher-quality limited-edition Frozen dolls and costumes to skyrocket past $1,000 on eBay. By the time the merchandise shortage was finally resolved in early November 2014 (nearly a year after the film's release), Disney had sold over three million Frozen costumes in North America alone. Wait times for the meet-and-greets at Disney Parks soon regularly exceeded four hours and forced management in February 2014 to indefinitely extend what was originally intended as a temporary film promotion. Disney Parks later put on a temporary event (Frozen Summer Fun) at Disney's Hollywood Studios, then announced on September 12, 2014, that the Maelstrom ride at Epcot's Norway pavilion would be closed and replaced with a Frozen-based attraction to open in early 2016. By August 2014, the publisher Random House had sold over 8 million Frozen-related books. Tour operators, including Adventures by Disney, added more Norway tours in response to rising demand during 2014.
Meanwhile, the producers of Once Upon a Time (made by Disney-owned ABC Studios) independently conceived of and obtained authorization from both ABC and Disney for a Frozen-inspired crossover story arc in the show's fourth season, which was first revealed at the end of the show's third season in May 2014, which was broadcast in fall 2014. On September 2, 2014, ABC broadcast The Story of Frozen: Making a Disney Animated Classic, a one-hour "making of" television special. At the end of the special, Lasseter announced that the production team would be reuniting to make Frozen Fever, a short film which debuted in theaters with Walt Disney Animation Studios' Never Muppetational Pirate and Disney's Cinderella on March 13, 2015. On September 4, 2014, Feld Entertainment's Disney on Ice presented the world premiere of a touring ice skating show based on the film at Amway Center in Orlando, Florida.
_____
Sequel
In November 2014, Idina Menzel claimed that a feature-length sequel was in development. However, on December 1, when the subject came up again during an interview on the Today show on the NBC network, she said, "You know, I have no idea. I just assumed that because it's so successful that's what they're up to!" On March 12, 2015, Disney officially announced that a feature-length sequel to Frozen was in development with Buck and Lee returning as directors, and Del Vecho returning as producer. In a May 2015 interview, Buck said, "We have lots of things to figure out but at least we know where we are going."
________
Short film
In 2014, after the release of Muppets Most Wanted, Disney has scheduled Pixie Party Plaza, a 6-minute short animated film, featuring characters from the 2013 film, Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret. It was released theatrically on July 18, 2014, with Planes: Fire & Rescue. The short pick up where the sequel has left off, with Pixie Hollow becoming reunited with the Winter Woods and Tinker Bell and Periwinkle being reunited. The cast consists of Mae Whitman, Lucy Hale, Debby Ryan, Grey DeLisle, Jane Horrocks, Lucy Liu, Jeff Bennett, Raven-Symoné, Matt Lanter, Jesse McCartney, Megan Hilty, Rob Paulsen, Pamela Adlon, and Angela Bartys. Dieter Hartmann compose the score for Pixie Party Plaza, with its rock 'n' roll song, "This Party's Out of Sight". Unlike the other feature-length Disney Fairies films (which are both rated G by the MPAA), Disco Plaza received the rating of PG: "Parental Guidance Suggested. Some Material May Not Be Suitable For Children" from the MPAA for some reckless behavior. Thus, it is the first Disney Fairies short to receive a PG rating from the MPAA (unlike all of the previously-released Disney Fairies shorts, which were rated G by the MPAA) and also the Disney animated short film to have been designated that rating after 1990's Roller Coaster Rabbit. In the short, Tink, Peri, the Never Fairies, and her friends in Winter organizes a party, but no one shows up. To solve the problem, they use door stations to steal visitors from the biggest party going on at the Pixie Dust Tree.
