"Frozen 2," which debuts in theaters on Friday,
sees the sisters embark on an "epic, dangerous adventure" into
an enchanted forest, said star Kristen Bell, who voices younger
sister Anna. Along the way, the pair discover new information
about their family "that doesn't sit well," Bell said.
The journey begins when Queen Elsa, voiced by Idina Menzel,
hears someone calling her and feels pulled into the forest in
search of answers about her past.
"The first film looked at love versus fear in dealing with being
different," said writer and co-director Jennifer Lee. "This
looks at the power of love over fear as you navigate through
change, and I think the message of perseverance is at the core
of it."
"Frozen 2" features seven new songs that the filmmakers hope
will captivate viewers much like the anthem "Let It Go" from the
original movie.
One of the new songs sung by Menzel, called "Into the Unknown,"
signifies the "danger and risk which is what is calling to
Elsa," said Robert Lopez, who co-wrote the songs with his wife,
Kristen Anderson-Lopez.
"She needs to find her purpose," Lopez said of Elsa. "She needs
to take this dangerous journey to get there, and it's going to
threaten everything. She has to do it for her kingdom and for
herself."
