From Kristen Bell to Josh Gad, some iconic voice actors are reprising their roles in the Frozen 3 cast. The first Frozen movie saw a character named Anna set out on a mission to find her missing sister, Queen Elsa, after she ran away from home after accidentally freezing and dooming her kingdom to an eternal winter. While on this journey, Anna also meets several complex characters, such as Olaf and Kristoff, who all teach her some valuable life lessons along the way. After the characters proved to be a hit with the audience, they soon returned in 2019 for Frozen II, which now explored the origins of Elsa's powers.
In February 2023, Disney CEO Bob Iger announced that the studio is developing a third Frozen movie (via Deadline), along with Toy Story and Zootopia sequels. With a combined worldwide gross of more than $2.7 billion (via The Numbers), Frozen is one of the highest-grossing animated movie franchises of all time. It’s no wonder that Disney wants to keep the series going with a threequel. Not much has been announced about Frozen 3 yet, but some familiar voice actors are confirmed to be reprising their roles in the Frozen 3 cast.
