Washington [US], August 10 : Disney's D23 Expo provided fans with an exciting glimpse into the future of its beloved franchise as the studio unveiled the first concept art for 'Frozen 3.'
The new instalment in the hit animated series is slated for release on November 24, 2027, aligning with Disney's traditional Thanksgiving release spot, reported by Deadline.
At the event, filmmaker Jennifer Lee presented the initial concept art for 'Frozen 3,' featuring iconic characters Anna and Elsa.
The artwork depicts Elsa and Anna riding horses towards a sunlit horizon, with Olaf perched on Anna's horse, according to Deadline.
The imagery suggests an expansive and new journey for the characters.
Lee also addressed the lingering questions from 'Frozen 2,' hinting that the upcoming film will continue to explore unresolved storylines.
"There were a lot of questions coming out of Frozen 2... it will take two films to answer them," she noted, indirectly teasing the possibility of a fourth film in the series, according to Deadline.
