Jennifer Lee, Chief Creative Officer at Walt Disney Animation Studios, has confirmed that work has begun on “Frozen 3,” which was first confirmed to be greenlit earlier this year, according to Deadline.
‘Frozen 3’ In the Works
Lee, who was a writer and director on the first two “Frozen” films, confirmed the news during a keynote session at the London Film Festival (LFF).
While remaining tight-lipped about specific details related to “Frozen 3,” including production status and timeframes, Lee shared with the LFF audience that she is “blown away” by the work already being done by the studio.
All I’ll says is that last week, they carved out time for me to work with the creative team on it. And I’m blown away.
I’m so excited. I don’t know what I’m doing on it yet. I might be doing nothing.
