Elsa's ice powers get a deeper explanation in this 2019 sequel, which sends the sisters of Arendelle north into an enchanted forest to uncover the origins of Elsa's magic and an old debt their kingdom owes the past.

What is Frozen II about?

A mysterious voice only Elsa can hear pulls her away from Arendelle, and Anna, Kristoff, Olaf, and Sven follow her into a forest sealed off by mist for decades. What they find there ties Elsa's abilities to a buried piece of family history and to the fate of the elemental spirits guarding the forest. As Elsa pushes further to understand who she is, Anna is left to hold the group together and make a choice that determines whether Arendelle itself survives, while Olaf works through his own anxieties about growing up and changing. The film trades the first movie's coronation-and-thaw plot for a quieter mystery about legacy, memory, and what a kingdom owes the people it displaced generations earlier.

About the cast

Kristen Bell and Idina Menzel return as Anna and Elsa, joined by Jonathan Groff as Kristoff and Josh Gad voicing Olaf. Sterling K. Brown, Evan Rachel Wood, and Ciarán Hinds join the returning cast, filling out the forest's older generation and the story's flashback threads.

Context & significance

Directed again by Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee, the sequel runs a tighter 104 minutes and leans harder into the mythology hinted at but never explained in the first film. Reception on release was solid rather than rapturous, with critics noting the more melancholy tone even as audiences responded strongly to the music and visuals, and the soundtrack again became a significant part of the film's reach well beyond theaters.
