Jennifer Lee and Chris Buck, who directed the first “Frozen,” and the short “Frozen Fever,” have returned to develop the sequel.
“We enjoyed making “Frozen Fever” so much and being back in that world with those characters,” said John Lasseter. “Jennifer Lee and Chris Buck have come up with a great idea for a sequel and you will be hearing a lot more about it and we”re taking you back to Arendelle. We are so excited about that.”
