Plot
Young fairy Tinker Bell (Mae Whitman) is born from the first laugh of a baby lying in the nursery crib in Bloomsbury, and is brought by the winds to Pixie Hollow, the pixie metropolis in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA. Young girl Tiana (Elizabeth Dampier) and her friend, Miss Charlotte LaBouff (Breanna Brooks), are told the story of the Frog Prince by Tiana's mother, Eudora (Oprah Winfrey), while she makes a dress for Charlotte. Later that night, Tiana and her father James (Terrence Howard) make gumbo while he tells her how good food brings people together and about his dream of owning his own restaurant.
Professional basketball player Michael Jordan (Himself) announces his retirement from the sport to follow his late father's career as a baseball player. Tiana (Anika Noni Rose) is a young waitress who works at two different diners and in order to raise money to buy an old sugar mill, which she plans to turn into the restaurant her father dreamed about. Tinker Bell learns that her talent is to be one of the tinkers, the fairies and people who make and fix things. Two other tinker fairies, Bobble (Rob Paulsen) and Clank (Jeff Bennett), teach her their craft, and tell her about the fairies who visit the mainland to bring each season, including spring (the season of Mardi Gras, St. Patrick's Day, and Easter). Tinker Bell is thrilled and cannot wait to go to the mainland for spring. Despite Jordan's popularity, it become evident while playing with the minor-league Los Angeles Dodgers, part of the Chicago White Sox farm system; that his baseball talent is nowhere near his basketball talent. Jordan is assigned a publicist, Stan Podolak (Wayne Knight), to make his new career less bumpy.
Meanwhile, in the intergalactic outer space, the Nerdlucks, a group of criminal aliens; led by their boss Mr. Swackhammer (Danny DeVito), plot to capture the Looney Tunes, who really exist in a secret animated world called Looney Tune Land (hidden at the center of the Earth), and make them their newest attractions at Moron Mountain, a failing amusement park. Swackhammer believes enslaving Bugs Bunny (Billy West) and the Tunes in this way will bring in more customers and save Moron Mountain from foreclosure. The Nerdlucks arrive in Looney Tune Land, and since they aren't very intelligent or tall; Bugs, Daffy Duck (Dee Bradley Baker), and the Tunes bargain for their freedom by challenging the Nerdlucks to a basketball game. While out working, Tinker Bell meets Silvermist (Lucy Liu), a water fairy; Rosetta (Kristin Chenoweth), a garden fairy; Iridessa (Raven-Symoné), a light fairy; and Fawn (America Ferrera), an animal fairy. For Mardi Gras, Eli "Big Daddy" LaBouff (John Goodman), a rich sugar baron and Charlotte's father, invites Prince Naveen (Bruno Campos) of Maldonia to his masquerade ball, Charlotte (Jennifer Cody) hires Tiana for catering services, including beignets. Big Daddy seeks to welcome the recently arrived Prince Naveen as an eligible suitor to his daughter. Tiana is thrilled to finally have enough to purchase and renovate the old sugar mill into her restaurant. The financially cut-off Prince Naveen, penniless and unskilled, is intent on marrying a wealthy woman rather than learning a trade. He and his valet Lawrence (Peter Bartlett) encounter Dr. Facilier (Keith David), a voodoo witch doctor who convinces the pair that he can improve both their lives. Instead, Facilier transforms Naveen into a frog and gives Lawrence a voodoo charm that transforms his appearance to that of Naveen's when worn.
After meeting them, she notices Vidia (Pamela Adlon), a fast-flying fairy who immediately dislikes her because of her unusually strong talent. Vidia challenges her to prove she will be able to go to the mainland. Tinker Bell creates inventions, which she shows to the Minister of Spring (Steve Valentine). But Tinker Bell soon learns from Queen Clarion (Anjelica Huston) that only nature-talent fairies visit the mainland. At the masquerade ball, Tiana discovers she may lose the sugar mill to a higher bidder. Tiana then meets Prince Naveen, who, believing her to be a princess because of her costume, asks her to kiss him and break Facilier's curse. Tiana reluctantly agrees, in exchange for the money needed to outbid the other buyer. However, instead of Prince Naveen turning back into a human, Tiana is turned into a frog herself. A chase ensues, and Prince Naveen and Tiana escape to a bayou. Facilier intends for Lawrence, under the guise of Naveen, to marry Charlotte in order to gain access to her father's fortune; Lawrence will get 40% of it as payment for his help.
The Nerdlucks travel around the USA and steal the talent of Patrick Ewing (Himself), Larry Johnson (Himself), Charles Barkley (Himself), Muggsy Bogues (Himself), and Shawn Bradley (Himself), who are rendered incapable of playing basketball as a result. They use the stolen talent to transform into gigantic creatures—now called the MonStars—that the Tunes are unable to defeat. Tinker Bell tries her hand at nature skills; making dewdrops with Silvermist, lighting fireflies with Iridessa, and trying with Fawn to teach baby birds to fly, but she fails miserably at all of these. Meanwhile, Bobble and Clank cover for Tinker Bell when questioned by Fairy Mary (Jane Horrocks), the tinker fairy overseer. When Tinker Bell returns, she tries to explain, but Mary simply responds that she knows, and expresses her disappointment with Tinker Bell's actions. To help the Tunes win the game, Bugs recruits Jordan during a relaxing game of golf with Podolak and their friends, Bill Murray (Himself) and Larry Bird (Himself) and recruits him. He reluctantly agrees to help after the MonStars squash him into the shape of a ball and bounce him around like one. Tiana and Naveen meet Louis (Michael-Leon Wooley), a trumpet-playing alligator who longs to be human, and Ray (Jim Cummings), a Cajun firefly who is naively in love with Evangeline, another firefly who is revealed to be the Evening Star. Louis and Ray offer Tiana and Naveen to lead them to find Mama Odie, who they believe can undo the curse.
Lawrence later proposes to Charlotte, who agrees, but the magic in Facilier's charm wears off and Lawrence reverts to his original form. Another sample of the prince's blood is needed in order to prolong the spell, but Facilier finds that Lawrence foolishly released him. Facilier turns to the voodoo spirits for help, with the promise that once Lawrence marries Charlotte, he will have total control over New Orleans and will be able to offer the citizens' souls as payment. The voodoo spirits provide shadow demons, who are dispatched to locate Naveen.
On the beach, Tinker Bell finds parts of a music box and a Swan Lake ballerina out how to put them together. Iridessa, Fawn, Silvermist, and Rosetta witness her doing this, then tell her that she was tinkering and that she should be proud of her talent—if this is what she's good at, the mainland should not matter. But Tinker Bell still wants to go to the mainland. She asks Rosetta if she will still teach her to be a garden fairy, but Rosetta says she thinks that tinkering is Tinker Bell's talent. That night, Bugs and Daffy go to Jordan's house to collect what he needs to play - his basketball gear, barely dodging family dog Charles, who has the shorts. Podolak has been digging out the golf hole to find Jordan, but he follows Bugs and Daffy to another one, reuniting with Jordan and stays to support him, whose team will be called the Tune Squad. Another recruit is Lola Bunny (Kath Soucie) who Bugs falls in love with. The four at last meet the good voodoo priestess Mama Odie (Jenifer Lewis) and she tells Tiana and Naveen that Naveen must kiss a true princess for them to become human, and that since Big Daddy is King of the Mardi Gras Parade, Charlotte is a princess, but only until the clock strokes midnight, when Mardi Gras is over.
As a last resort, Tinker Bell asks Vidia for help in becoming a garden fairy. Vidia craftily tell her that capturing the sprinting thistles would prove her worth. However, once she sees Tinker Bell making process, she lets the captured thistles loose, and in attempting to recapture them, Tinker Bell destroys all the preparations for spring. Tinker Bell decides to leave, but after talking with the light-keeper, Terence (Jesse McCartney), about how important his job is, she realizes the importance of a tinker.
Somewhere around the United States, the sudden inability of five top NBA players to play basketballs captures the attention of the media—and the rest of the NBA—as more and more NBA teams refuse to take the court, fearing the same phenomenon will attack them. The five NBA players themselves go through a series of physical, medical, psychological and spiritual tests to figure out why they have no talent anymore, to no avail. Eventually all NBA stadiums are quarantined and the season is declared officially over until further notice.
The day of the Ultimate Game arrives and the two teams and the Tune Squad & MonStars take the court. Despite Jordan's leadership, the MonStars dominate the first half of the game. Podolak sneaks into the MonStars' locker room and overhears them talking about how they stole the talent from the NBA players, but he is detected despite hiding in a locker and scorched as a result. Naveen tells Ray he loves Tiana and is willing to give up his dreams for her, but before he can tell her directly, he is captured by the shadow demons and brought to Facilier.
After Ray tells Tiana that Naveen truly loves her, Tiana goes to the Mardi Gras Parade only to find "Naveen" marrying Charlotte. Tiana escapes to be alone, while Ray is able to help the real Naveen escape and steals the charm. Ray gives the charm to Tiana to hold back Facilier's minions, but Facilier defeats and mortally wounds him. Podolak informs the Tune Squad that the MonStars stole the talent from the NBA players. Bugs motivates the team with a "special drink", and the MonStars' commanding lead is reduced to a significantly smaller margin, allowing the characters to take the lead, using Tune weaponry. Facilier then confronts Tiana and transforms her into her dream form. He then offers to make her restaurant dream come true in exchange for the charm, but Tiana refuses and attempts to destroy the talisman, realizing that even if she does not have what she wants, she still has what she needs. Facilier manages to catch it before it breaks and turns Tiana back into her frog form, unwittingly giving her the opportunity to grab the talisman with his tongue and destroy it. The angered voodoo spirits appear and, using Facilier himself as payment for his debts, drag him to the voodoo version of Hell.
Seeing Swackhammer angry that the MonStars did not steal Jordan's talent, Jordan takes the chance to raise the stakes. If the Tune Squad wins, the MonStars must give the NBA players their talent back, but if they lose, then Swackhammer is to spare the Tunes in exchange for Jordan. He readily accepts it and Bugs tries to talk him out of it, all the while being aware of what it means if Jordan is subjected to humiliation on Moron Mountain for all time. The MonStars begin playing even dirtier than before at the Tune Squad. The Tunes are injured, one by one, until only Jordan, Bugs, Lola and Daffy are left, leaving them short one player. Reluctantly, Jordan puts Podolak in the game, and though he is quickly taken out of action, the MonStars' lead is now down to one. Marvin the Martian (Bob Bergen), who is the referee, tells them that if there is no fifth player, the team will forfeit the game. At the last second, Murray appears in the stadium and joins the team, breaking the fourth wall along the way.
With only seconds left, Murray pulls some clever maneuvering and gets the ball to Jordan. Extending his arm to superhuman lengths (since the laws of physics work differently with the Tunes in Looney Tune Land), Jordan defies being held at midcourt and makes a dunk from half court that beats the buzzer and wins the game. Although Murray has always dreamed of being an NBA player, and Jordan is impressed with her skills, Murray decides to retire from basketball forever. Jordan then helps the MonStars realize that they're bigger than Swackhammer, who confronts them for losing. Fed up with their abusive boss, the MonStars tie him up to a rocket and send him to the moon. At Jordan's request, they reluctantly return the stolen talent to the other players by transferring them to a basketball, which is how they stored the stolen talent earlier in the film. This reverts the MonStars back to the tiny Nerdlucks. Refusing to return to Moron Mountain, the Nerdlucks decide to stay with the Tunes, who only agree if the Nerdlucks can prove themselves to be 'Looney', which they arguably complete on the spot. As Jordan leaves, he tells Bugs to stay out of trouble. Bugs assures him he will and shares a kiss with Lola.
Afterwards, Podolak and Jordan take the Nerdlucks' spaceship and Jordan makes a dramatic appearance with Podolak at a Dodgers baseball game to the cheers of the audience. While the innocent Lawrence is arrested, Tiana and Naveen reveal their love to each other. Charlotte, after listening to their explanation of the situation, agrees to kiss Naveen so he and Tiana can be together. The clock strikes before she can kiss him. Louis brings the dying Ray to Naveen and Tiana, who tell him that they are happy to live together as frogs. They then meet Barkley, Ewing, Bogues, Johnson, and Bradley and give the stolen talent back to the NBA players, who immediately regain their lost skills. They offer Jordan a chance to play a 3-on-3 with them, but when Jordan intially refuses, the others wonder if he still has the motivation and talent that the NBA demands. Jordan says, "There's only one way to find out..." Tinker Bell redeems herself by inventing machines that quicken the process of decorating flowers, ladybugs, etc. This allows the other fairies to get back on schedule, thus saving the arrival of spring. Vidia is punished for prompting her to cause the chaos and Clarion allows Tinker Bell to join the nature-talent fairies when they bring spring to the mainland. Tinker Bell is given the task of delivering the music box to its original owner (shown to be Wendy Darling (America Young)). The narrator says that when lost toys are found or a broken clock starts to work, "it all means that one very special fairy might be near."
Tiana and Naveen are wed by Mama Odie; because Tiana has married a frog prince, she has become a princess, and their kiss breaks the spell. They share a kiss again. Returning to New Orleans, they had a second wedding at the cathedral. Months later, Tiana and Naveen have transformed the sugar mill into the long awaited restaurant, called Tiana's Palace, after winning the bid with the help of her friends. Tiana and Naveen celebrate their opening with their family and friends. In a move mirroring his actual comeback, Jordan returns to the Chicago Bulls to reprise his basketball career.
Long ago, a drop of sunlight became a golden flower capable of healing illness, decay and injury. For hundreds of years the flower is used by Mother Gothel (Donna Murphy) to retain her youth until it is discovered by soldiers of a nearby kingdom, Corona. They use the flower to heal their ailing Queen Arianna, who soon afterwards gives birth to Princess Rapunzel (Delaney Rose Stein). While attempting to recover the flower, Gothel discovers that Rapunzel's hair has the flower's healing properties. However, attempting to take just the hair by cutting a piece from it destroys its power, and so she kidnaps Rapunzel and raises her as her own daughter in an isolated tower. Once a year, King Frederic and Arianna release sky lanterns on Rapunzel's birthday, hoping for their daughter's return ("When Will My Life Begin?"). The nature-talent fairies, including Silvermist (Lucy Liu), Rosetta (Kristin Chenoweth), Iridessa (Raven-Symoné), and Fawn (Angela Bartys), are bringing to the mainland the leaves, hibernation, chilly breezes, and pumpkins: autumn. Brothers Walter (Peter Linz) and Gary (Jason Segel), residents of Smalltown, are fans of the Muppets, having watched The Muppet Show throughout their youth. Now adults, Gary plans a vacation to Los Angeles with his girlfriend, Mary (Amy Adams), to celebrate their tenth anniversary, inviting Walter so he can tour the Muppet Studios. Mary feels Gary's devotion to Walter is detracting from their relationship ("Life's a Happy Song").
Meanwhile, Tinker Bell (Mae Whitman) and dust-talent fairies like Terence (Jesse McCartney) and Fairy Gary (Jeff Bennett) are staying in Pixie Hollow. Tinker Bell is trying to make a "Pixie Express". But it fails just as she is called by Viola (Grey DeLisle), a summoning fairy; to meet Queen Clarion (Anjelica Huston), Fairy Mary (Jane Horrocks), and Redleaf (John DiMaggio), the Minister of Autumn. They show her a mystical moonstone and explain to her its tremendous powers. Every eight years, there is a blue harvest moon in Pixie Hollow. When the light of this rare blue moon passes through the moonstone, it creates blue-colored pixie dust to strengthen and rejuvenate the pixie dust tree. The Autumn Revelry is the associated event during which the fairies gather to collect the dust.
Nearing her eighteenth birthday, Rapunzel (Mandy Moore) asks Gothel for permission to leave the tower and discover the source of the lanterns, but Gothel refuses, telling her that the outside world is a dangerous place ("Mother Knows Best"). Elsewhere, a thief known as Flynn Rider (Zachary Levi) has stolen Rapunzel's crown from the kingdom and inadvertently discovers the tower after ditching his cohorts, the Stabbington brothers (Ron Perlman). Rapunzel captures Flynn and discovers the crown, but is unaware of its significance. Rapunzel plans to show Flynn to Gothel in order to prove she can take care of herself, but when Gothel becomes enraged at Rapunzel's insistent desire to leave, she asks for a special paint that will take Gothel three days' round trip to obtain and return. Gothel agrees and departs.
In Los Angeles, the three visit the abandoned Muppet Studios. A new scepter is to be made to raise the moonstone, and Tinker Bell has been recommended. Although Tinker Bell has made mistakes in the past, Fairy Mary explains that tinker fairies learn from them, most of the time. Tinker Bell accepts the task, as well as help from Terence. But as the work on the scepter progresses, Tinker Bell begins to have trouble with Terence, who is trying too hard to be helpful. During the tour, Walter sneaks into Kermit the Frog's office and discovers Statler (Steve Whitmire) and Waldorf (Dave Goelz) selling the Muppet Theater to oil magnate Tex Richman (Chris Cooper) and his henchmen Bobo the Bear (Bill Barretta) and Uncle Deadly (Matt Vogel). After Statler and Waldorf leave, Walter overhears Richman reveal his plan to destroy the theater and drill for oil underneath. Walter explains to Gary and Mary that if the Muppets can raise $10 million by the time their original contract expires, they can repurchase the theater.
When Tinker Bell asks Terence to go find something sharp, Terence meets Bobble (Rob Paulsen) and Clank (Jeff Bennett); brings a compass to her workshop, irritating Tinker Bell. She kicks the compass, causing it to roll over and break her newly completed scepter. After a row with her friend, Tinker Bell's furious antics result in her accidentally smashing the moonstone as well. According to legend by storytelling fairy Lyria (Grey DeLisle), a magic mirror granted two of three wishes before becoming lost. Tinker Bell sets out on in a balloon she's created to find a mirror. Tinker Bell intends to use the third and last wish to repair the shattered moonstone to its original form. Agreeing to stop Richman, they find Kermit (Steve Whitmire) and inform him he must organize a telethon to raise the money, which appears difficult since the Muppets have gone their separate ways since the show ended its run ("Pictures in My Head"). Convinced to try, Kermit sets off with the three to reunite the group by traveling by car with his valet, '80s Robot (Matt Vogel). Rapunzel convinces Flynn to escort her to see the lanterns in exchange for the crown ("When Will My Life Begin? (Reprise)").
While trying to evade a hungry bat, a firefly named Blaze (Eliza Pollack Zebert) crash lands into Tinker Bell's balloon. Tink orders him to leave, but he truly wants to tag along with Tink on her quest to find the magical mirror. After Blaze's apparent exit, Tink tries to read her map but it's too dark to see. Blaze then sheds light on the map to help Tink, and the tinker finally allows him to stay. Kermit dissuades Fozzie Bear (Eric Jacobson) from continuing to perform in Reno, Nevada with the Moopets, a tribute group of uncouth Muppet impersonators. Meanwhile, Gonzo (Dave Goelz) has become a plumbing magnate, and despite his initial objection, destroys his business and joins them. Animal (Eric Jacobson) is recovered from a celebrity anger-management clinic, but is instructed by his sponsor Jack Black (Himself) to avoid drums. Scooter (David Rudman), Rowlf the Dog (Bill Barretta), and the other primary Muppets rejoin through a montage. Later in Paris, the group finds Miss Piggy (Eric Jacobson) working as an editor for "plus-sized" fashion at Vogue Paris. Unable to convince Miss Piggy to return, the group replaces her with Moopet counterpart Miss Poogy.
As the duo's adventure continues, Tink thinks she has stumbled upon the stone arch that is said to lead way to the mirror. She leaves the balloon to make sure of this and leaves Blaze to watch over it. Once Tink flies off, however, the balloon begins to stray away. After unsuccessfully trying to anchor it, Blaze rushes to tell Tink, though she is too busy trying to figure out why she stumbled upon a bent tree instead of the stone ark to notice Blaze. When she finally sees the balloon floating off, she gives chase, Blaze in tow, but the harsh winds knocks them down. The next morning, Tinker Bell awakens, hungry and lost. Blaze scouts out to rally some forest insects that provide food and water for Tink. They also lead her and Blaze to the stone arch, and the adventure continues.
The Muppets return to Los Angeles and pitch their telethon idea to several television networks, but are rejected. Following a show's cancellation, CDE executive Veronica (Rashida Jones) gives the Muppets a recently vacated two-hour slot in the network's schedule, on the condition that they find a celebrity guest. The Muppets refurbish the theater, but their first rehearsal is unsuccessful and Kermit is unable to contact a celebrity guest. Miss Piggy returns, forces Poogy out, and informs Kermit that she refuses to work with him. Kermit inspires Walter to find his talent and perform in the telethon. Meanwhile, Mary goes sightseeing alone ("Me Party").
During their excursion, Flynn takes Rapunzel to the Snuggly Duckling, a pub filled with the frightening people Gothel warned Rapunzel about – the thugs, but who instead are charmed by Rapunzel's innocence, was include Hookhand (Brad Garrett) the pianist; the lovesick Big Nose (Jeffrey Tambor), Vlad (Richard Kiel), and a small Shorty (Paul F. Tompkins) ("I've Got a Dream"). When the royal soldiers, led by the Captain of the Guard (M.C. Gainey) appear searching for Flynn, the pub regulars help the pair escape. The soldiers give chase, led by Maximus, one of the lead horses in the royal army, and locate them at a dam. The dam is inadvertently breached, and the resulting deluge traps Flynn and Rapunzel in a flooding cave. Fearing this is the end, Flynn reveals his real name is Eugene Fitzherbert. Rapunzel starts to reveal that her hair glows when she sings – but then realizes that this is their key to escape, as her hair provides enough light to find a way out of the cave ("Healing Incantation"). Eugene and Rapunzel take refuge in a forest where Gothel, now in league with the Stabbingtons, gives the crown to Rapunzel and suggests using it to challenge Eugene's interest in her ("Mother Knows Best (Reprise)").
The next morning, Maximus finds the pair and tries to capture Eugene, but Rapunzel arranges a truce in honor of her birthday. Kermit entreats Richman to return their studio. Richman declines and reveals that the Muppets will also lose their trademark names, which he plans to entitle to the Moopets ("Let's Talk About Me"). Unsuccessful, Kermit returns home. The group reaches the kingdom and enjoys the festivities, culminating in an evening cruise as the lanterns are released ("I See The Light"). There, Rapunzel gives Eugene the crown. When he sees the Stabbingtons on the shore, Eugene leaves Rapunzel and intends to let them have the crown. Instead, the brothers tie Eugene onto a boat and confront Rapunzel, claiming Eugene is escaping with the crown. Gothel then stages a rescue by betraying the brothers and returns Rapunzel to the tower as Eugene and the Stabbingtons are arrested by the royal guards. Miss Piggy enlists the remaining Muppets to kidnap Black as a celebrity guest. Meanwhile, after discovering that a devastated Mary has returned to Smalltown, Gary realizes that he must improve his relationship with Mary and follows her back home to reconcile, while Walter discovers he was intended to join the Muppets ("Man or Muppet").
Tink and Blaze find the shipwreck that is said to house the mirror and head inside Tinker Bell finally discovers the mirror. Just as she is about to make the wish, Blaze keeps getting in her face, causing her to blurt out her wish for the firefly to be quiet for one minute, accidentally wasting her third wish. She blames Blaze for distracting her, but then, realizing that her temper is what had gotten her in trouble in the first place, she apologizes and breaks down crying. She is found by Terence, who has been following her after discovering her plans and the fragments of the moonstone in her empty house. They reunite, but then they are chased by rats.
Back at the tower, Rapunzel recognizes the symbol of the kingdom, which she had subconsciously incorporated into her paintings over the years. Realizing that she is the long-lost princess, she confronts Gothel. The telethon begins and gradually attracts a large audience, with the Muppets raising donations with support from celebrity callers and Jack Black serving unwillingly as host. During the show, Richman cuts the theater's power supply, but Gary and Mary return to Los Angeles and restore the power. Richman then attempts to destroy the theater's television transmitter, but a regretful Uncle Deadly stops Richman. Kermit and Miss Piggy finally reconcile and the Muppets perform "Rainbow Connection" as their final act. However, the telethon runs short as the $10 million has yet to be collected. Having found his talent, Walter performs a whistling act, which is unanimously praised by the audience.
As Eugene is being led to execution, he is rescued by the Snuggly Duckling regulars and carried back to Gothel's tower by Maximus. Eugene enters the tower by climbing Rapunzel's hair, only to find Rapunzel bound with chains and gagged with a handkerchief. Gothel then stabs him with a knife and attempts to leave with a struggling Rapunzel. Refusing to lose, Richman disables the telephone lines and evicts the Muppets from the theater, after the latter fall short of their monetary goal. Rapunzel agrees to lifelong captivity if she is allowed to heal Eugene, but before she has the chance to save him, Eugene slices off her hair, turning it from golden blonde to brown and destroying its magic. Gothel's age rapidly catches up to her, and she falls from the tower, disintegrating into dust. Kermit gathers the group in the lobby and delivers a speech, suggesting that they will restart their career together as a family. As Eugene dies, a heartbroken Rapunzel's tear, which still contains a bit of the sun's power, lands on his cheek and restores his life. Exiting the theater, the Muppets are greeted by a vast gathering of supporters on Hollywood Boulevard. With Gary's encouragement, Walter greets the crowd and is accepted by the Muppets as their newest member. Tinker Bell and Terence start back to Pixie Hollow. Along the way, Tinker Bell fixes the scepter using a white gem from the top of the mirror, the scepter pieces Terence has wisely brought, and the moonstone pieces, all set at just the right angle. She discovers the magic of true friendship, humility, and love. The two return to the kingdom, where Rapunzel is re-united with her parents.
Thanks to inspired teamwork with Terence, she is ready to give the scepter to Clarion. When she unveils the scepter, the assembled fairies are all shocked and alarmed to see the fragments of the precious moonstone. However, the broken moonstone shards create an unexpected benefit: they drastically magnify and increase the surface area through which the rays of the blue moon could pass, creating the largest supply of blue-colored pixie dust ever seen in Pixie Hollow. The kingdom breaks out in celebration and Eugene is pardoned for his crimes. Rapunzel and Eugene eventually marry. Gary proposes to Mary, Richman returns the theater and naming rights to the Muppets after suffering a head injury, and Kermit and Miss Piggy enjoy their private life ("Life's a Happy Song (Reprise)").
Set two years after the events in Tinker Bell's Springtime Belief, Tinker Bell (Mae Whitman) attends fairy camp like the other fairies while Michael Jordan (Himself), Bugs Bunny (Jeff Bergman), and the rest of the Looney Tunes gang attended the English Festival in Orlando, Florida to celebrate the arrival of Alice (Chloe Grace Moretz). They prepare for Michael's basketball camp, but failed when Alice stumbles and hurts her arm. Michael's wife, Juanita (Theresa Randle) decides to leave Alice behind. The next day, Alice discovers Wheezy (Jerome Ranft), a penguin, has been in the patient room next door due to his sore throat. Pooh (Jim Cummings) wakes up one day to find that he is out of honey. While out searching for more, Pooh discovers that Eeyore (Bud Luckey) has lost his tail. When Tink attempts to go find some lost things, Vidia (Pamela Adlon) asks her if she's going to the human house, which isn't far from camp. The question makes Tink curious and eventually sneaks off. Vidia follows behind to watch over her.
When she reaches the house, she is amazed by their "horseless carriage". She takes the time to flitter around under the car, while Vidia tries to get her to leave. When Juanita takes Wheezy to the yard sale, Alice rescues him, only to be stolen by a greedy cartoon collector, who takes her to his apartment. Eventually they do, but on their way back to camp, Tink and Vidia stumble upon a fairy-sized house made by Lizzy (Lauren Mote), a human girl who wishes to meet a real fairy. Tink immediately heads in to investigate, despite Vidia's constant warnings. Tink claims it to be perfectly safe, so Vidia slams the door shut in an attempt to scare her but unintentionally locks Tink inside. When Lizzy begins to approach the house, Vidia tries to free Tink to no avail. Lizzy discovers Tink inside and takes her to her home. She prepares to show Tink to her father, Dr. Griffiths (Michael Sheen), a very busy and serious scientist, but upon seeing all the butterflies he has pinned in display for research, she decides to keep Tink a secret. Bugs and all of the Looney Tunes identify the thief from a commercial as Al McWhiggin (Wayne Knight), the owner of an acme store called Al's Toon Barn. Bugs, Daffy Duck (Jeff Bergman), Porky Pig (Bob Bergen), Sylvester (Jeff Bergman), and Tweety Bird (Jeff Bergman) all set out to rescue Alice. Meanwhile, Vidia rallies Rosetta (Kristin Chenoweth), Iridessa (Raven-Symoné), Fawn (Angela Bartys), Silvermist (Lucy Liu), Clank (Jeff Bennett) and Bobble (Rob Paulsen) to rescue Tink. They try to sail on a stream which would take them straight to the Griffiths' house.
At Al's apartment, Alice learns that he is a valuable collectable based on a Lewis Carroll and A. A. Milne tales, Alice in Wonderland and Winnie the Pooh and is set to be sold to a cartoon museum in Tokyo, Japan. Pooh, Piglet (Travis Oates), Rabbit (Tom Kenny), Owl (Craig Ferguson), Kanga (Kristen Anderson-Lopez), and Roo (Wyatt Hall) come to the rescue while Tigger (Jim Cummings) has his bouncing fun, and Christopher Robin (Jack Boulter) decides to hold a contest to see who can find a replacement for Eeyore's tail. The prize for the winner is a fresh pot of honey. After many failed attempts for what would replace Eeyore's tail (such as a cuckoo clock), Kanga suggests they use a scarf, but it unravels.
Back at the human house, Lizzy reveals her fascination of fairies. Tink is flattered by her obsession and since Tink can't leave the house because it's raining outside, she decides to teach her nearly everything about fairies. They record their information in a new research book given to Lizzy by her father. During this time, they have grown a great friendship. While the other characters from the tale—Lorina (Elle Fanning), the White Rabbit, and Stinky Pete (Kelsey Grammer) the Prospector—are excited about going, Alice wants to return home because he is still one of the Looney Tune colleagues. Lorina is upset because the museum is only interested in the collection if Alice is in it since they will return to storage if he is absent from the collection. When her arm is injured accidentally, Alice attempts to retrieve the healing medicine and escape but is foiled by someone mysteriously turning on Al's television set. When their ship goes over a waterfall, Silvermist manipulates the water to create a mid-air stream. While this does save their lives, the boat is wrecked.
The next day, Pooh goes to visit Christopher Robin and he finds a note that says "Gon Out Bizy Back Soon". Because Pooh is unable to read the note, he asks for Owl's help. Owl's poor reading comprehension skills lead Pooh and his friends to believe that Christopher Robin has been abducted by a ruthless and mischievous monster they call the "Backson" and Owl describes it in a song that is shown in a chalk-drawn scene. Rabbit plans to trap the Backson in a pit, which they think he'll fall into after following a trail of items leading to it. Meanwhile, Tigger, wanting a sidekick to help him defeat the Backson, recruits Eeyore to be a second Tigger. He dresses up like the Backson and tries to teach Eeyore how to fight. Eeyore, who is doing this against his will, escapes from Tigger and hides underwater.
The next morning, a doctor (Burny Mattinson) fixes her arm and he learns that Lorina was once the beloved daughter of a mother named Lady Ida, who eventually outgrew her and gave her away. Pete warns her that the same fate awaits him when Michael grows up, whereas he will last forever in the museum. This convinces Alice to stay, now believing that all toons eventually get discarded by their owners. Meanwhile, Bugs and the other Tunes reach Al's Toon Barn, having travelled 20 blocks. While searching for Alice, Bugs is imprisoned into a cardboard box by his dead ringer of Bunny Dodgers with a utility belt, who thinks he is a real space hero. Bunny Dodgers joins the other Tunes, who mistake him as their Bugs. The fairies continue on foot but upon crossing a mudbank, Vidia gets stuck waist deep. While Clank and Bobble try to find something to pull her out, the other fairies are nearly run over by a car but are saved when Iridessa blinds the driver (Jeff Bennett), who then vacates the car, giving the girls a chance to get Vidia out by grabbing onto the driver's shoelace.
After a while, the rain dies down, and Tink is able to return to camp. She gives Lizzy a hug and makes her way out but before she leaves, she watches Lizzy attempt to show her father the research. Unfortunately, Dr. Griffiths is too busy fixing the house's leaks to pay her any mind, so Tink returns and fixes the leaks, saving Lizzy's father from the burden. Afterwards, she makes the choice to release a captive butterfly Dr. Griffiths was planning on showing to a group of scientists. Thinking that his daughter was the one who set free the butterfly free, he sends her to her room. After discovering Al's plan, the troops arrive his apartment while Bugs escapes and pursues them, accidentally freeing Marvin the Martian (Eric Bauza), who immediately goes after him, intent on destroying him. Meanwhile, Vidia confesses to the rescue team that it was her fault that Tink has been captured. They comfort Vidia about the situation, informing her that it could have been worse without her presence.
Back in the tale, after a failed attempt to get honey from a bee hive, Pooh's imagination combined with his hunger get the better of him which has end up eating some mud and later, accidentally falls into the pit meant for the Backson. Rabbit, Kanga, Roo, Owl, Piglet, and Eeyore (who had found an anchor whilst he was hiding to replace his own tail) try to get him out, but fall in themselves. Piglet, who didn't fell in, attempts to get Pooh and friends out of the trap (though continuously irritating Rabbit with over-interpretations of his instructions), but he runs into Tigger, still in his Backson outfit, and mistakes him for the actual monster. Piglet escapes from Tigger on a red balloon, which knocks some of the storybook's letters into the pit. After the chase, Tigger and Piglet fall into the trap as well, where Eeyore reminds Tigger that he, being "the only one," is "the most wonderful thing about Tiggers". Eventually, Pooh figures out to use the fallen letters to form a ladder, and the animals are able to escape the pit. They soon find Christopher Robin, and tell him about the Backson, but he clarifies, saying he meant to be "back soon." The hunny pot prize was given to the red balloon from earlier, much to Pooh's dismay.
Back at the house, Tink shows Lizzy how to fly in her room with pixie dust. Once the rescue team finally reaches the human house, they are attacked by Lizzy's pet cat, Mr. Twitches. Despite being an animal fairy, Fawn is unable to immediately tame a cat under pressure. A chase ensues before she is able to find catnip, eventually taming the cat. After the Tunes find Alice, Bugs rejoins them and proves that he is the real Bugs, but Alice refuses to go home. Bugs reminds Alice of a toon's "true purpose" and warns him that in the museum, he will only be able to watch children from behind glass and never be played with again.
After the show is over, Alice changes her mind and asks the storybook characters to come with him, but Pete prevents their escape. Having foiled Alice's escape the previous night, he reveals that he wants to go to Japan because he was never sold to cartoon lovers, allowing Al to take the storybook character with him. Then her father walks in, forcing Tink to hide in the fairy house. He finds footprints on the ceiling and sternly demands the truth. Lizzy tells him about Tink and shows him the research she and the fairy did in the book he gave her. Her father, however, still refuses to believe in fairies, and he and his daughter get into a disagreement. Angered by Dr. Griffiths' stubbornness, Tink reveals herself and chides him. The sight of the fairy astonishes the scientist and prompts him to capture Tink so that he could take her to London for research, but Vidia arrives just in time and pushes her out the way. Vidia is instead captured by Dr. Griffiths, but Lizzy and the fairies are able to convince him to think otherwise.
Bugs and the gang prepare to save Alice, but are caught by Marvin, who wants to destroy Bugs, but Daffy knocks him down Al's building. The Looney Tunes follow Al while Bunny Dodgers chooses to remain behind with an injured Marvin. Accompanied by the Nerdlucks, they steal a delivery truck and follow Al to an airport, where they enter the baggage handling system and free Alice. Pete injures Alice's arm again while preventing his escape, but is stuffed into a crate by the Looney Tunes to teach him a lesson of what it is like to be loved. They free the White Rabbit, only for Lorina to end up on the plane bound for Japan. Assisted by Bugs and the White Rabbit, Alice frees Lorina and the Tunes find their way home. Dr. Griffiths apologizes to his daughter for not believing her. Vidia is then freed.
Later, Pooh visits Owl only to find that Owl was the one that took Eeyore's tail, not realizing it belonged to Eeyore. Owl had been using Eeyore's tail as a bell-pull for his door. Pooh chooses to leave. In the end, Pooh returns the tail to Eeyore instead of sharing a pot of honey with Owl. Christopher Robin is proud of Pooh's selflessness and rewards him with a large pot of honey. Michael returns from the basketball vacation, he accepts Lorina, the White Rabbit, and the Nerdlucks as his new colleagues, thinking Juanita bought them, and cares for Alice's injured arm. Meanwhile, Al's business has suffered due to his failure to sell the storybook characters. Alice tells Bugs that he is not worried about Michael discarding her because, when he does, they will still have each other for company. Wheezy's throat has been fixed. Lizzy and her father are now closer than ever. Vidia and Tink form a friendship.
In a epilogue scene, it is revealed that the rumored Backson (Huell Howser) actually exists deep in the woods, but is much friendlier than imagined. He discovers the trail of objects that the animals left, and picks up each one, planning to return them to whoever owns them. He ends up falling into the pit that was originally meant for him and waits for someone to arrive and help him out. He adds, "I sure hope that fellow will be back soon."
When Litwak's Family Fun Center & Arcade closes at night, the various video-game characters leave their normal in-game roles and are free to travel to other games. Within the game Fix-It Felix, Jr., the characters celebrate its titular hero Fix-It Felix, Jr. (Jack McBrayer) but loathe the game's villain character, Wreck-It Ralph (John C. Reilly). At a support group for video-game antagonists, Ralph reveals his desire to stop being the bad guy. Rosetta (Megan Hilty) is busy helping to set up flowers for the big night, when she meets a new garden fairy named Chloe (Brenda Song), who drops a lump of dirt in front of her, accidentally getting her dirty and, because she's ironically afraid of dirt, causing her to freak out until Silvermist (Lucy Liu) douses her with a water droplet. Chloe announces she has been training for the Pixie Hollow Games and is excited to be competing. Even though the garden fairies have little hope of winning and haven't ever won, Chloe is confident that she and her partner can turn things around and end the losing streak. When it comes time for the team selection with Fern (Zendaya), Chloe has already volunteered and Rosetta is selected to be her partner.
Back home, Ralph finds the other characters celebrating their game's 30th anniversary without inviting him. Felix reluctantly invites Ralph to join them, but the others isolate him. Gene (Raymond S. Persi), the Niceland's mayor tells him that if he won a medal, just as Felix does in their game, they would respect him. The night of the games, Rosetta wears a fancy, formal, pale-red gown, certain that she and Chloe will be eliminated after one round. The storm fairies, Rumble (Jason Dolley) and Glimmer (Tiffany Thornton), are the heavy favorites to win the competition. They have won the last four years in-a-row, winning four winners' rings each and wanting to get a final ring. The first event is leapfrogging. Similar to chariot racing, the teams ride on frogs, yoked together by an harness. Then the competitors leapfrog over one another to the finish line. Rosetta refuses to get onto the frog, but finally does when the spectators yell in protest, leading to total chaos on the racetrack.
At Tapper's root beer game, Ralph learns he can win a medal in the first-person shooter game Hero's Duty. Ralph enters the game and encounters Sergeant Calhoun (Jane Lynch) its leader. Between game sessions, Ralph climbs the game's central beacon and collects the medal, accidentally hatching a Cy-Bug, one of the game's enemies. It clings to Ralph as he stumbles into an escape pod that launches him out of the game. Meanwhile, with Ralph missing, a girl (Stefanie Scott) reports to arcade-owner Litwak (Ed O'Neill) that Fix-It Felix, Jr. is malfunctioning. Since broken games get unplugged, leaving their characters homeless, Felix searches for Ralph.
Ralph crash-lands in Sugar Rush, a kart-racing game. As he searches for his medal, he meets Vanellope von Schweetz (Sarah Silverman), a glitchy character who takes the medal and uses it to buy entry into a race. King Candy (Alan Tudyk) and the other racers, consisting of Taffyta Muttonfudge (Mindy Kaling) refuse to let Vanellope participate, claiming she is not really part of the game. The next day, Rosetta and Chloe continue to compete in a series of games, such as dragonfly water skiing, twig-spheres, and mouse polo, slowly moving up in the standings during each game. But things start to turn south in the final challenge of the day.
Ralph helps Vanellope build a kart. At her home in Diet Cola Mountain, an unfinished racing course, he discovers she is a natural racer. Back in Hero's Duty, Felix meets Calhoun, who warns that the Cy-Bugs can take over any game they enter. As the pair searches for Ralph and the Cy-Bug in Sugar Rush, they separate when Felix, enamored with Calhoun, inadvertently reminds her of her fiancé, who had been killed by a Cy-Bug in her backstory. Calhoun finds hundreds of Cy-Bug eggs underground, and Felix becomes imprisoned in King Candy's castle during his search for Ralph.
At the end of the teacup race, there's a series of chutes covered in slimy mucus that the teams must slide down to get to the finish line. Chloe dives down the chute with no double, But Rosetta, afraid of getting muddy and dirty, nervously crawls down the chute, to Chloe's dismay. However, they're still in the games since Iridessa (Raven-Symoné) and Lumina (Jessica DiCicco) after Iridessa coated their cup in too much pixie dust, causing them to crash into the roof of the cavern. Regardless, Rosetta's actions put them in last place, and no team has ever won from last place. For the first time in the Games, Chloe is starting to doubt Rosetta. Desperate, King Candy hacks the game's code to retrieve Ralph's medal and offers it to Ralph, explaining that letting Vanellope race would be disastrous for both her and the game. Fearing for Vanellope's safety, Ralph wrecks the kart and returns to his own game, but finds that everyone has evacuated except for Gene, expecting the game to be unplugged in the morning. Discovering Vanellope's image on the Sugar Rush cabinet, Ralph realizes that King Candy had lied and she is an intended part of the game, not a glitch. Ralph returns to Sugar Rush, finds Felix and Vanellope with the help of Sour Bill (Rich Moore), the king's assistant, and asks Felix to fix the wrecked kart.
As the race proceeds, the hatched Cy-Bugs attack and Felix, Calhoun, and Ralph battle them. Vidia (Pamela Adlon) and Zephyr (Alicyn Packard) take the shortcut and crashed, then Terence (Jesse McCartney) and Fairy Gary (Jeff Bennett) try to jump the pond but land in it, leaving just the garden and storm fairies. Rosetta and Chloe take the mudslide mountain short and successfully make it over thanks to Tinker Bell (Mae Whitman) adding built-in spikes to the wheels and a propeller to cross the steep mountain and get ahead of the storm fairies. When Vanellope catches up to King Candy, her glitching reveals that he is actually Turbo, a character from an old game, Turbo Time, who sabotaged a newer game out of jealousy, causing both to be unplugged. Vanellope escapes from Turbo, who is consumed by a Cy-Bug. The group flees the doomed game, but Vanellope finds she cannot pass through the exit. Calhoun says the game cannot be saved without a beacon to attract and kill the Cy-Bugs. However, in the last leg of the race, Rumble uses Glimmer's lightning ability to zap one of the wheels causing the girls' cart to crash. Glimmer is appalled.
Ralph heads to Diet Cola Mountain, where he plans on collapsing its Mentos stalactites into the cola at the bottom, causing a blinding eruption that would attract the bugs. Before he can finish, Turbo, merged with the Cy-Bug that had consumed him, attacks him and carries him away. Ralph breaks free and dives toward the mountain, intending to sacrifice himself to start the eruption on impact. Vanellope in turn uses her glitching abilities to save Ralph. The eruption starts and draws the Cy-Bugs to their destruction, including Turbo. Seeing their cart destroyed, Rosetta and Chloe push their cart over the finish line and at least finish together. Vanellope crosses the finish line, restoring her memory and status as Princess Vanellope, the game's ruler and lead character, while keeping her advantageous glitching ability. Rumble is already celebrating his victory, when Queen Clarion (Anjelica Huston) announces that the garden fairies are the winners. Rumble protests, until the Queen shows him that Glimmer abandoned him just before the finish line for cheating, thus his victory doesn't count. Therefore, the garden fairies win.
Felix and Ralph return to their game in time for Litwak to see that it is in fact not broken, sparing it from being unplugged. Calhoun and Felix marry, and the characters of Fix-It Felix, Jr. gain a new respect for Ralph. The movie ends with Rosetta and Chloe celebrating with their best friends that they broke their losing streak.
Following on from the ending of Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn, Kermit the Frog (Steve Whitmire) and the Muppets find themselves at a loss as to what to do next. Per the suggestions by British tour manager Sir Dominic Badguy (Ricky Gervais), the Muppets decide to embark on a world tour ("We're Doing a Sequel"). An opening prologue tells that icemen from the Norwegian kingdom of Arendelle harvesting ice ("Frozen Heart"). Elsa (Eva Bella), the winter princess of Arendelle; possess cryokinetic and frigiokinesis powers, with which they were able to produce or manipulate ice, snow, frost, sleet, hail, and cold at will. One night while playing, Elsa accidentally injures her younger sister, Anna (Livvy Stubenrauch), with her powers. Their shocked parents, King Agnarr (Maurice LaMarche) and Queen Iduna (Jennifer Lee) seek help from Pabbie (Ciarán Hinds), the troll king and shaman who heal Anna and removes her memories of Elsa's magic. He also informs Elsa that if she had struck Anna's heart it would have been fatal. In order to protect Elsa and Anna, the royal couple isolates the children in their castle until Elsa learns to control her powers. Afraid of hurting Anna again, Elsa spend most of their time alone in their room, refusing even to speak to Anna, and a rift develops between the sisters as they grow up. When the girls are teenagers, their parents die at sea during a storm ("Do You Want to Build a Snowman?").
In Siberia, Russia, the criminal mastermind Constantine (Matt Vogel), a near-exact double for Kermit in appearance, escapes from a maximum security Gulag 38B. Out in the North Atlantic Ocean, British spy fairy named Finn McMissile (Michael Caine) infiltrates the world's largest untapped pixie dust reserves, owned by a group of "lemon" fairies, led by unknown mastermind Professor Zündapp (Thomas Kretschmann). After being discovered, he is forced to flee and fake his death. A saber-toothed squirrel named Scrat (Chris Wedge) climbs a glacier to bury his acorn, but accidentally opens a hole in it, causing water to spurt out.
In Hollywood, Wendy Darling (Chloe Grace Moretz) reunites with Peter Pan (Blayne Weaver) and their colleague Bugs Bunny (Jeff Bergman) to enjoy some quiet time. But when Irish formula tourist fairy named Fionnoula O'Callaghan (Kelly Macdonald) challenges Wendy to a world's fair called World Global Pavilion Incorporated (WGP Inc.), led by Sir Miles Axlerod (Eddie Izzard), a former pixie dust tycoon, who promote his new cleaning pixie dust named Incanta; she and Peter–along with the Nerdlucks–depart for Oslo where WGP Inc. is located.
When Anna (Kristen Bell) and Elsa (Idina Menzel) come of age, Arendelle prepares for Elsa's coronation as queen ("For the First Time in Forever"). Among the guests is the Duke of Weselton (Alan Tudyk), who seeks to exploit the kingdom for profit. Anna explores Arendelle and meets Hans (Santino Fontana), the prince of the Southern Isles. Zündapp and the lemons, secretly plot to secure their pixie dust profits by using an electromagnetic pulse emitter weapon disguised as a television camera to ignite the Incanta pixie dust. Finn and his partner Holley Shiftwell (Emily Mortimer) attempt to rendezvous with American spy fairy Rod Redline (Bruce Campbell) at the WGP Inc. promotional event, to receive information about the mastermind. However, Redline is attacked by Zündapp's goons Grem (Joe Mantegna) & Acer (Peter Jacobson) and passes his information to Peter before he is captured. As the Muppets begin their tour, Constantine makes contact with Dominic and joins his subordinate; a position Constantine frequently reminds him of; to begin a plot to steal the Crown Jewels of England. Dominic offered to manage the group and schedule the European tour in WGP Inc.
Despite Elsa's fears, her coronation takes place with incident. During the reception, Hans proposes to Anna, who hastily accepts ("Love is An Open Door"). Elsa refuses to grant her blessing and forbids Anna and Hans's sudden marriage. The girls argue, culminating in the exposure of Elsa's abilities in an emotional outburst. Panicking and declared a monster by the Duke, Elsa flees the castle, while inadvertently unleashing an eternal winter curse on the kingdom. Anna leaves Hans in charge of Arendelle and sets out in search of her sister. Zündapp tortures Redline and reveals that Incanta can ignite if impacted by a high electromagnetic pulse. Zündapp demonstrates it on Redline, killing him, but not before they realize that he passed this information to Peter. High in the nearby mountains, Elsa abandons her restraint, vowing to never return and building herself a solitary ice palace ("Let It Go").
Once the Muppets arrive in Berlin, Germany, they intend to play a shabby venue, but Dominic secures them a show at a prestigious location. Kermit, frustrated with the troupe's ludicrous requests for the show, including The Great Gonzo's (Dave Goelz) "Indoor Running of the Bulls" and Miss Piggy's (Eric Jacobson) five songs and insistent hints at the wedding and marriage, goes for a walk along the deserted canal at Dominic's suggestion. However, the hooded Constantine ambushes him and slaps a fake mole onto his right cheek, matching Constantine's own resemble, then slips away. Mistaken for Constantine, Kermit is arrested and sent to the Gulag while Constantine escapes. When everyone in Germany is preparing for the last season of the year: winter (the season of Christmas and Hanukkah), Tinker Bell (Mae Whitman) wants to go to the Winter Woods, due to her curious nature. She sees that the tinker fairies, including Fairy Mary (Jane Horrocks) are making baskets which are carried by snowy owls, who then delivers them to the fairies of the Winter Woods, and learns that there will be another shipment tomorrow. Meanwhile, Zündapp, Grem, and Acer uses the weapon on several tourist fairies.
Later that day, Finn and Holley help Peter evade Zündapp's goons. Tink volunteers to help her friend Fawn (Angela Bartys) take the animals to the Winter Woods. Peter inadvertently gives Wendy bad racing advice, which causes her to fall second and lose the race to Fionnoula. While Fawn is busy Tink crosses the border into the Winter Woods, and her wings start to glow. But Fawn warns her that her wings are freezing and rushes her off to the hospital with her other friends; Iridessa (Raven-Symoné), Rosetta (Megan Hilty), Silvermist (Lucy Liu), and Vidia (Pamela Adlon). After being fixed by the fairy doctor (Jodi Benson), Tink remains curious about the sparkles and colors her wings made in the Winter Woods. Tink went off to the library, where she finds a book titled Wingology, but unfortunately, a bookworm has chewed the page on "Sparkling Wings" up. Scribble (Thomas Lennon), the fairy librarian with glasses tells Tink that the author of the book, the Keeper, might be able to help her, but he lives in the Winter Woods.
The world of ice is slowly melting. The creatures are all shown enjoying themselves on slides and pools made by the melting ice at Glacier Fountain, the water park. Sid (John Leguizamo) the sloth, opens a small day camp, where none of the younger creatures take him seriously, nor do Manny (Ray Romano) the mammoth and Diego (Denis Leary) the saber-toothed tiger, which leaves Sid seeking a daring deed.
After Manny heard the story of a young burro with younger creatures, Fast Tony (Jay Leno), the giant armadillo and local con artist is claiming that the valley will flood and that the bark and reeds that he sell are needed to stay alive. Manny dismisses the idea, but is distracted when he sees that Sid will try to high dive from a giant waterfall; as Manny goes with Diego to the top of the waterfall to save Sid from her act of daredevilry, suddenly the ice under Diego's feet was breaking, causing him to bolt in fear, this also made Sid figure that Diego is afraid of the water. They figure that the pleasant sunshine has caused the ice shelves to melt, and it is kept from destroying the valley only by the glaciers, which have formed a dam.
The Lone Gunslinger Vulture (Will Arnett) warns the mammals that a giant sequoia tree can act as a boat that can save them if they make it to the end of the valley within three days' time, and all soon set out to find it. As the mammals begin their journey, Sid sings three songs to tease Manny about mammoths being "extinct". During the evacuation, a glacier which contains two sea reptiles from the Mesozoic era, Cretaceous and Maelstrom, breaks off.
Taking Kermit's place, Constantine meets up with the rest of the Muppets and raises the suspicions of no one who all believe him to be Kermit, expect Animal (Eric Jacobson), who bites him. Constantine and Dominic review their plans ("I'm Number One"). The Berlin performance opens with Constantine freezing at the sight of the large audience and Scooter (David Rudman) has to introduce the show. Later, Constantine and Dominic sneak off to steal a selection of paintings from a nearby National Treasure Museum. The next morning after the burglary, Interpol agent Jean Pierre Napoleon (Ty Burrell) and CIA agent Sam the Eagle (Eric Jacobson) team up to begrudgingly form an alliance to apprehend the culprit, whom Jean believe to be his nemesis "The Lemur" – the number two criminal in the world, after discovering a coin-based calling card. Finn drafts Peter into foiling Zündapp's plot. Finn and Peter escape Grem and Acer and climb aboard Siddeley (Jason Issacs).
Preparing herself for the Winter Woods and using the final shipment as her only chance, Tink sneaks into the depot and climbs inside one of the baskets and waits for the owls, with the help of his friends, Clank (Jeff Bennett) and Bobble (Rob Paulsen). She gets picked up by an unexperienced owl and makes her way across the border. Suddenly, the owl accidentally drops the basket, and Tink crashes into the snow. Realizing her book has been flung from her bag, she tries to get it back before the frost sparrowman named Sled (Matt Lanter) finds it. However, Milori (Timothy Dalton), the Lord of the Winter Woods finds the book and asks Sled, to return the book to the Keeper.
Using this as a opportunity, Tink follows Sled to the Winter Library. Upon arriving, she spots Dewey (Jeff Bennett), the Keeper of all fairy knowledge. But before she can talk to him, the frost fairy named Periwinkle (Lucy Hale) rushes into the room and proclaims that her wings are sparkling the day before when Tink's wings begin to glow and sparkle. An irresistible force guided Tink toward Peri. They ask Dewey to explain what was happening to their wings. Bringing Tink and Peri to a platform and positioning their wings, the whole chamber becomes filled with images explaining their origins. Tinker Bell and Periwinkle realize that they are fraternal twin sisters.
Suddenly, Milori arrives, concerned about the book, warning Dewey to send any 'warm' fairy back to WGP Inc. Dewey tells the two they can spend five days together before Tink has to return home. Peri shows to Tink that she also collects lost things and tries to find a use for them. Next, they go to the Frost Forest to introduce Tink to Gliss (Grey DeLisle) and Spike (Debby Ryan). Following instructions hidden behind the stolen painting, Constantine and Dominic divert the course of the Muppet tour to Madrid, Spain as part of a plot.
Meanwhile, after being locked in the Gulag, Kermit has attempted multiple escape attempts, all of which are thwarted by Gulag prison officer Nadya (Tiny Fey); knowing of his true identity, Nadya is obsessed with him as Piggy ("The Big House"). Nadya orders Kermit to help organize the prisoners' annual prison talent show. Reflecting on his time with the Muppets, Kermit gains the inmates' respect. Anna was determined to return Elsa to Arendelle, end the winter and mend their relationship. While getting supplies at Oaken's (Chris Williams) trading post, Anna meets Kristoff (Jonathan Groff) the ice harvester and his pet reindeer, Sven ("Reindeers Are Better Than People"), and convince him to guide her to the North Mountain, where it locates the ice palace until the wolves attack them.
Meanwhile, on the train, Constantine wins over Piggy ("I'll Get You What You Want (Cockatoo in Malibu)"). Arriving in Spain, Constantine informs the rest of the Muppets that they permitted to perform any act they wish, much to Walter's (Peter Linz) puzzled suspicion. During this show in Madrid, the Muppets perform while Constantine and Dominic break into a Museo del Prado museum and destroy a roomful of busts in the process to find a key need for their plan. Even though the performance is a disaster that puts the audience to sleep, the Muppets' performance receive critical acclaim.
When Manny briefly is separated from them, Diego and Sid encounter two mischievous possums named Crash (Seann William Scott) and Eddie (Josh Peck) who drive them nuts by playing Whac-A-Mole with them. Manny is depressed about being the last mammoth alive and her family, which has been killed, but is surprised when she encounters Ellie (Queen Latifah), the female mammoth who believes she is a possum and Crash and Eddie's adoptive sister. Sid invites her to tag along with the group to escape the flood, and she brings his brothers. On their journey, the group encounters Olaf (Josh Gad), Elsa and Anna's childhood snowman, whom the later recreated and unknowingly brought to life. Olaf dreams of seeing and experiencing summer for the first time ("In Summer"). Finn and Holley remove the tracking device on Peter and discover in it a picture of a mysterious British wing, which Peter identified by the wing and some rare parts.
Finn, Holley, and Peter fly to Paris, France, where they go into a black-market and meet Tomber (Michel Michelis), Finn's underground informant and old friend. Finn and Holley show the mysterious wing to Tomber, who tells them that the fairy with the wing was his best customer, but he has never met him in person. Peter explains what she knows about the evil Lemons, and realizes that every Lemon involved with the plot is one of "history's biggest loser fairies." Tomber tells Finn, Holley, and Peter that the lemon are going to have a secret meeting at the Casino of Gold in Ireland, where the next leg in the World Grand Prix would be held. Jean and Sam deduce that the connection between the crimes in Berlin and Madrid is the Muppet tour, and the pair interrogate the Muppets at a police station to little success ("The Interrogation Song"). The instructions on the stolen key lead Constantine and Dominic to schedule the next show in Dublin, Ireland.
After a perilous ordeal with Cretaceous and Maelstrom while crossing a pond, Sid prompts Diego to encourage his to admit and faces his fears - Diego insists that "fear is for prey", so Sid points out that Diego is behaving as if he is the water's prey. They discover an area which Ellie recalls as the place of willow trees that shaped the mammoths where she was adopted. She finally realizes she is a mammoth and also expresses her suspicions about how different she was from other possums. Despite this bonding moment with Manny, Ellie distances herself from him when he suggests "saving their species". Manny and Ellie ultimately make up when they must co-operate to save the group when the ground cracks under their feet. Sid is kidnapped by a tribe of mini-sloths who believe Sid to be a fire worship king. Sid starts fire for them, and believes that he has finally found respect, but they plan to sacrifice him by tossing him into a volcano. Sid narrowly escapes.
Anna arrives at the ice palace and found Elsa, who stills fears hurting her sister. When Anna insists that we can unfreeze the kingdom, she becomes agitated and her powers leash out, accidentally striking Anna in the heart ("For the First Time in Forever (Reprise)"). Elsa creates a giant snow monster named Marshmallow (Paul Briggs) that throws Anna out of the palace. When Tink and Peri build a campfire to stay warm, Tink realizes that if she can make it warm, Peri can make it cold at Ireland. After Dewey and his pet snowy lynx, Fiona save Tink and Peri from a near death experience, he tells the sisters that Tink has to go home. The sisters realize that they might never see each other again, but Tink comes up with a plan. When the three people reach the border, Tink whispers to Peri to meet her at the border tomorrow.
When Tink arrives in Dublin, she asks Clank and Bobble for help. Later, Fawn and some of her other friends learn about Tink's sister and excited at the prospect of meeting her (Peri) decide to help Tink. As the tour reaches Dublin, Walter discovers that Dominic and Constantine had been giving away show tickets and bribing critics and journalists to ensure a packed house and write great reviews, and Fozzie Bear (Eric Jacobson) notices the resemblance between Kermit and Constantine. The two discover that Constantine has taken Kermit's place. Constantine sees that they have found out, and attacks Walter and Fozzie, but Animal fends him off and the three manage to escape by hopping onto the freight train. They then figure that the best course of action is to go to Siberia and rescue Kermit. Tink arrives at the border with Clank and Bobble pulling along a snowmaking machine. Peri arrives too with her friends, pulling along a big ice cube with Slush (Benjamin Diskin), a glacier fairy.
Now able to keep Peri cold enough, Peri crosses the border to the warm side of Ireland. Peter infiltrates the criminals' meeting and discovers Zündapp's plan. Peri meets Tink's other friends, which Rosetta gives her a periwinkle flower. Tink notices Peri's wings wilting. The snowmaker was running out of ice, and there wasn't enough snow to keep Peri cold, so Tink and Peri return to the border. Grem and Acer, meanwhile, use their weapon on several more tourists during the race, eventually causing a multi-fairy pileup. Wendy beats Fionnoula and finishes first, but bittersweet. Milori appears and instructs Peri how to fix her wings. Queen Clarion (Anjelica Huston) arrives too, and sadly explains to the sisters that they can never see each other again and that it was her who created the rule that warm and cold fairies should remain apart. With the Incanta pixie dust under suspicion, Axlerod suspends its use for the final leg in England. However, Wendy chooses to continue using it. As the sisters leave, the snowmaker gets knocked by Milori into the stream, and creates a snowstorm. Upon hearing that Zündapp and his criminals decided to kill Wendy in the last race, Peter is exposed and captured, along with Finn and Holley, and tied up inside Big Ben's bell tower in London, England. Peter realizes how foolishly he has been acting.
Later that day, Clarion and Milori tries to make Tink and Peri understand why the rule about not crossing the border was so important. They are told the story of two fairies who met and fell in love. One of them was a winter fairy and the other was from the warm seasons. They met every sunset at the border, where spring touches winter. But as their love grew stronger, they wished to be together and share each other's worlds. They disregarded the dangers across the border. One of them broke a wing, for which there is no cure. From that day, Clarion decreed that fairies must never again cross the border and Milori agreed that their worlds should forever remain apart. During the Dublin performance, Dominic steals a locket from the Irish National Bank and during the climax of the performance, Constantine proposes to Piggy onstage; she accepts, and the pair intending to plan a wedding to be held at the Tower of London, where the Crown Jewels are kept. Arriving in London, Constantine and Dominic conspire to use the wedding as a distraction. Before the wedding, Piggy contemplates her impending marriage and future with who she assumes is her true love, Kermit ("Something So Right").
That night, Kristoff introduces Anna and Olaf to the trolls, his adoptive family ("Fixer Upper"). Pabbie explains that Anna has struck by Elsa. Unless it can be thawed by an "act of true love", Anna will become frozen solid forever. Believing that only Hans can save her with a kiss, Kristoff races back with her to the palace. Hans is in search of Anna with the Duke's thugs and arrive at the ice palace. They defeat Marshmallow and attempt to kill Elsa, thinking it'll end the winter, but she subdues them. Elsa is knocked unconscious by a falling chandelier and Hans brings her to the castle, where she's imprisoned in the cell. He pleads with Elsa to undo the winter curse, but she admits she doesn't know how. Fozzie, Walter, and Animal reach the Gulag on the night of the annual performance and inform Kermit of Constantine's plot, and Kermit uses the prison show as a front to allow them, himself, and all the prisoners to escape, and they head to England, much to Nadya's dismay.
Sid finds Manny and tells the others about his experience but none are convinced. The herd find a field of hot geysers, which separate Manny, Sid, and Diego from Ellie, Crash, and Eddie when they argue about which way to go through it. Anna reunites with Hans and begs him to kiss her to break the curse. Hans reveals that his true intention in marrying her is to seize control of Arendelle's throne. Leaving Anna, he charges Elsa with treason for her younger sister's apparent death. But Elsa escaped from the castle. The trapped snowmaker begins to freeze England. Clarion, Tink, her friends, and the seasons' ministers arrive at the waterfall to find Clank and Bobble attempting to free the snowmaker. They succeeded in pushing the machine down the waterfall, but that it isn't over. Tink shows that there's a freeze coming. Clarion told everyone to save Pixie Hollow and the tree or the freeze will kill the tree, eternally, stopping the flow of pixie dust and therefore making it impossible for fairies for fly. All warm nature fairies journey to the tree. All fairies try everything they can to protect the tree and Tink checking that her furry and insect friends are all snugged up comfy. Tink then notices that a flower that Peri had covered in frost is still alive, despite its cold surroundings.
The criminals use the weapon on Wendy during the race, but nothing happens. The four Muppets infiltrate the Tower as the wedding gets underway, and Dominic (with the help of Bobby Benson's (David Rudman) Baby Band) uses the stolen key and locket to disable the security systems protecting the jewels and successfully steals them. Meanwhile, Manny, Sid, and Diego made to the boat but Gustav (Matt Berry), the secretary bird guards its. Tink flew straight to the Winter Woods and ask Gliss and Peri why the flower was still alive. Gliss explains that the frost carries warm air inside, and Peri suggests that they could frost the tree before the freeze comes. Tink, Peri, and the frost fairies rode Fiona to London. Kermit interrupts the ceremony and reveals Constantine's true identity to be nothing more than an impostor. Meanwhile, Olaf comes across Anna and reveals that Kristoff cares about her; they then escape onto the fjord. Peter warn her friends of a bomb planted in the Tower altar, but Finn and Holley find out that the bomb is actually planted in Peter's upper forehead. They warn him about the bomb, but he flees to protect his friends. However, he is pursued by Wendy in an attempt to reconcile, unaware of the danger until they are beyond the range of Zündapp's remote detonator.
When the flood comes, Manny saves Ellie from drowning as she is caught in the cave (due to falling rocks), while Diego overcomes his fear of water to save Sid, Crash, and Eddie. At the tree, Clank, Bobble, and Tink's other friends try to place some blankets on the branches, but the strong winds blow them away. To Clarion's fear and disappointment, the plan is failing but then Tink, Peri and some of her friends arrive explain the power of the frost to Clarion, and they get right to work. Constantine escapes and takes Piggy as his hostage and flees to a waiting honeymoon helicopter out on the Tower runaway. He is intercepted by Dominic, now dressed in a lemur costume, who announces his intend to double-cross Constantine. Constantine responds by ejecting him from the helicopter and tries to take flight with Piggy, but Kermit jumps aboard and intercepts while the rest of the Muppets climb atop each other as a "Muppet Ladder" to stop the escape in its track. Cretaceous and Maelstrom arrive, but due to Manny's quick thinking, they are finished off by a rock which falls on them, killing them both. The other citizens are at the mercy of the water currents. Zündapp sends his criminals to kill Wendy and Peter, but they are foiled by the combined efforts of Holley, Finn, and the Looney Tune residents. Upon his capture, Zündapp reveals that only the person who installed the bomb can deactivate it. Spike realizes that the tree is too big for the others to finish in time.
However, Tink spots Milori, Dewey, and the rest of the winter fairies who came to help frost everything everything else that isn't frozen. Hans confronts Elsa, telling her Anna is dead because of her. In Elsa's despair, the storm suddenly ceases, giving Kristoff and Anna the chance to locate each other. Accomplished of frosting the whole mainland, Milori states that they've done all they can. Milori warns the fairies that the freeze is upon them and they must take cover including Clarion who his gives his cape to so she can keep warm, revealing that he has a broken wing (hence why he flies around on a snowy owl). Milori then orders all the winter fairies to stand guard all over the tree. Some time later, Peter realizes that Axlerod is the mastermind behind the plot and confronts Axlerod, trapping him next to the bomb. Axlerod deactivates the bomb.
Meanwhile, Scrat climbs up the glacier and at the top sticks the acorn he has into the ice. Kermit knocks Constantine out, with the help of an irate Piggy. Nevertheless, Anna, seeing that Hans is about to kill Elsa with his sword, throws herself between the two just as she freezes solid, blocking Hans's attack and causing the glacier to form a crack, which widens into a crevasse, diverting the flood and saving the herd. Scrat is then washed away in the torrents. Axlerod and the lemons, along with Constantine and Dominic are arrested. As Elsa grieves for her sister, Anna begins to thaw. Anna's decision to sacrifice herself to save her sister constitutes an "act of true love." Nadya arrives in London and attempts to arrest Kermit once more for initiating the prison escape and "break her heart." The Muppets express her if she arrests him, she will have to take all of them as well. Nadya relents, allowing Kermit to go free and belongs with them and drops the charges. Realizing love is the key to the secret. Elsa thaws the mainland and helps Olaf survive on summer. The freeze begins to melt and pixie dust begins to flow again.
All the fairies celebrate, however Tink reveals that he had broken a wing when she flies into the Winter Woods and warns Peri to go back to the Winter Woods before her wings wilt. As the sisters hold hands and say goodbye, they reunite their wings and an explosion of pure sparkly light bursts from their wings, slowly magically healing Tink's broken wing. Clarion and Milori decide to get rid of the rule so that everyone can be together and kiss romantically revealing that they were the fairies that fell in love in the story. As a reward for his heroism, Peter receives an honorary knighthood from Queen Elizabeth II (Vanessa Redgrave). It is revealed the camera didn't trigger Wendy because the Nerdlucks replaced Incanta with gasoline. A herd of mammoths shows up, but Manny and Ellie decide to remain together anyway, taking Sid, Diego, and the opossum brothers along. Sid encounters the mini-sloths again – they believe Sid stopped the flood and invite him to be their leader. Diego, surprised to see the min-sloths are real, convinces Sid to stay with the others, reluctantly admitting that Sid is a viral part of their 'herd'. Cretaceous and Maelstrom become sushi for the vultures.
From that day on, warm fairies can cross over the border into the Winter Woods (after they have their wings frosted over to preserve them). Hans is deported to the Southern Isles to face punishment for his crimes against the royal family of Arendelle, while Elsa cuts off trade with Weselton. Friendship in Pixie Hollow becomes whole again as Clarion & Milori and Rosetta & Sled begin their romantic relationships and the sisters reconcile and soon realize that they are half of each other. Elsa promises never to shut the gates again. Finn and Holley ask if Peter can join them on another mission, but he turns it down. The Muppet tour concludes at the Gulag where Constantine is part of the Gulag show ("Together Again"). Nadya, apparently having been promised a solo by Kermit, prepares to sing but is cut off by the film's "The End" logo. The epilogue shows Scrat having a near death experience after falling into the fissure. He enters a heaven full of acorns. Suddenly, he finds himself torn away. He unhappily wakes up, having been resuscitated by Sid, who he proceeds to viciously attack.
In the credits scene, Clank overcomes his fear of glaciers through the help of Slush.
Jim Hawkins (Walter) (Peter Linz) is a young orphan who lives in the Admiral Benbow in England with his friends Gonzo (Dave Goelz) and Rizzo (Steve Whitmire). Jim listens to the tales of Billy Bones (Billy Connolly), who tells of his former captain, Captain Flint, who buried his treasure trove on a remote island and executed all of his crew so only he would own the island's map. Zarina (Christina Hendricks), a very smart and inquisitive pixie dust-keeper fairy, is amazed by the magic behind pixie dust and is determined to find out all that it is capable of. After her secretly experimenting with some blue pixie dust and causing an accident in Pixie Hollow, her supervisor Fairy Gary (Jeff Bennett) prohibits her from being a dust-keeper. In sorrow, Zarina takes her experiments and runs away from Pixie Hollow. One night, one of Bones' crewmates Blind Pew (Matt Vogel) arrives, giving Bones the black spot. Bones gives Jim the treasure map and reveals that he had been Flint's first mate. Just before dying of a heart attack, he begs Jim to go after the treasure and keep both it and the map safe from pirate hands. An army of pirates attack the inn, destroying it, but the boys escape with the map.
One year later, Pixie Hollow celebrates the Four Seasons Festival, with performances from fairies of all the seasons. During the show, Tinker Bell (Mae Whitman), Silvermist (Lucy Liu), Iridessa (Raven-Symoné), Rosetta (Megan Hilty), Fawn (Angela Bartys), and Vidia (Pamela Adlon) spot Zarina flying around the audience and using some strange pixie dust to summon several poppies that cause everyone to fall asleep, except Tink and her friends who take cover. After Zarina is gone, they realize that she stole all of the blue pixie dust, the only way to make the yellow dust that the fairies use to fly, so they go after her to return it to its rightful place. They follow Zarina to the coast, where it is revealed that she became the captain of a pirate crew, including the cabin boy, James Hook (Tom Hiddleston). The fairies manage to retrieve the blue dust for a moment, but Zarina gets it back after throwing at them some multicolored pixie dust that magically switches their innate fairy abilities and talents. Tinker Bell becomes a water fairy, Silvermist becomes a fast-flying fairy, Fawn becomes a light fairy, Iridessa becomes a garden fairy, Rosetta becomes an animal fairy, and Vidia becomes a tinker fairy, much to her horror and disgust.
The trio take the map to the half-wit Squire Trelawney (Fozzie Bear) (Eric Jacobson), who arranges a voyage to find the treasure. The orphans are enlisted aboard the Hispaniola as the cabin children, accompanied by Trelawney, Dr. Livesey (Bunsen Honeydew) (Dave Goelz), and his assistant Beaker (Steve Whitmire). The ship is commanded by Captain Abraham Smollett (Kermit the Frog) (Steve Whitmire) and his overly strict first mate Mr. Arrow (Sam Eagle) (Eric Jacobson). The orphans meet the cook Long John Silver (Ralph Fiennes), a one-legged man who Bones warned them of, but Jim and Silver become good friends. The ship sets sail, but Smollett is suspicious of the crew, believing them to be of shady character. They struggle with their swapped talents as they search for Zarina and the pirate ship, in the process meeting a baby crocodile which takes a liking to Rosetta. They find the ship and sneak in, where they hear James saying how the pirates met Zarina after drifting off course, and she became the captain with the promise of making the ship fly so that they could plunder anything without getting caught. After Gonzo and Rizzo are kidnapped and tortured by three of the crew, who have turned out to be pirates, he has the treasure map locked up for safe keeping. It is revealed that Silver and all the secret pirates in the crew had been part of Flint's crew and want the treasure for themselves. Silver fools Mr. Arrow into leaving the ship to test out a rowboat, claims he drowned, and has his minions steal the map during Arrow's memorial service. Jim, Gonzo, and Rizzo discover Silver's treachery and inform Smollett.
The ship arrives at Skull Rock, where the fairies discover the pirates' camp and a mysterious Pixie Dust Tree, which Zarina had grown using pink-colored pixie dust of the garden talent. Arriving at Treasure Island, Smollett orders the entire crew save the officers to go ashore, planning to keep himself and all non-pirate crew aboard the ship and abandon the pirates on the island. However, his plan falls through when it is discovered that Silver has kidnapped Jim to have leverage against the captain. The fairies attempt to retrieve the blue pixie dust but are caught when Iridessa loses control over her nature/earth-based talent and reveals their location. Tink tries to convince Zarina to return home to Pixie Hollow, but she refuses as no one appreciates her unusual talents in dust-keeping, which eventually led her to leave. With the fairies now captured, the pirates begin making pixie dust which becomes successful.
On the island, Silver invites Jim to join them in the treasure hunt using his late father's compass. When Jim refuses, Silver forcibly takes the compass from him. Smollett, Gonzo, and Rizzo land on the island in an effort to rescue Jim. However, unbeknownst to them, Silver had hidden a squad of pirates aboard the Hispaniola before leaving, and they capture the ship in Smollett's absence. On the island, Smollett and the rest of the landing party are captured by the native tribe of pigs, where Smollett reunites with his jilted lover Benjamina Gunn (Miss Piggy) (Eric Jacobson), the tribe's queen. Hook, curious about what it's like to fly, convinces Zarina to use some on him, with the result that he begins to fly. After joyfully flying around the cave, Hook double-crosses Zarina and traps her in a lantern, revealing he is the real captain of the pirate crew and that he has merely been using her all along to get the pixie dust for his own purposes of getting to the second star to plunder around the seven seas of Neverland.
The pirates find the cave in which Flint hid the treasure is empty, leading to a brief mutiny against Silver. Silver reveals that, even though he is a pirate, he cares for Jim and allows him to escape. Smollett and Benjamina are captured by Silver, and Smollett is hung from a cliff to fall to his death. In an effort to save Smollett, Benjamina reveals the treasure is hidden in her house, but when she spits out a kiss from Silver, he hangs her off the cliff as well. Tinker Bell and the others attempt to escape their prison without any success, until the baby crocodile Rosetta befriended arrives and releases them. The fairies attempt once more to retrieve the blue pixie dust and almost succeed, before being confronted by Hook, who threatens to throw Zarina into the sea unless they hand the blue pixie dust over. Tink willingly gives the pixie dust up, and Hook sprinkles it over the ship before throwing Zarina into the water, leaving the fairies to rescue her. Jim rescues his friends and with Mr. Arrow (who is revealed to be alive), the group regains control of the Hispaniola, and rescue Smollett and Benjamina. The group engages the pirates in a sword fight, until only Silver is left standing, but he surrenders when he finds himself outnumbered.
As the pirates sail towards the Second Star, the fairies return and use their switched talents to defeat the pirates and turn the ship away from the Second Star. Zarina attempts to retrieve the blue pixie dust from Hook, who chases after her. Zarina manages to gain a speck of blue pixie dust which she then throws at Hook, who starts flying crazily as the two kinds of pixie dust react to each other. As the fairies fly away, Hook angrily swears revenge on them until he is attacked by the baby crocodile, leaving his crew members to laugh at him, much to his dismay. Zarina returns the blue pixie dust to Tink and her friends, before preparing to leave. While all the pirates are imprisoned, Silver discovers he still has Mr. Arrow's keys and tries to escape with the treasure. Jim confronts him but allows him to leave as long as they never cross paths again, much to Silver's disappointment. Silver rows away, but not before returning Jim's compass to him. However, Mr. Arrow informs Jim and Smollett that the boat Silver used was not seaworthy, and Silver is stranded on the island with no gold.
However, she is offered the chance to return to Pixie Hollow and this time accepts, and helps her friends to sail the ship back to Pixie Hollow where the others are waking up with no recollection of what had happened. Zarina promises not to tamper and experiment with pixie dust again, but is convinced by Tink to show off her astoundingly profound pixie dust abilities one last time. Zarina does so, and in the process, gives Tink and her friends back their original fairy talents, allowing them to put on a beautiful performance to the audience at the Four Seasons Festival. Everyone rushes over to congratulate them, particularly Zarina whose unusually strong and rare talent of pixie dust alchemy is finally accepted and can be who she is.
The epilogue program starts with Elsa (Idina Menzel) planning to give Anna (Kristen Bell) a surprise birthday party with the help of Kristoff (Jonathan Groff), Sven, and Olaf (Josh Gad); but while Anna is led on a "party treasure hunt" by a string that winds through the kingdom, Elsa has caught a cold, and unknowingly produces a group of small animated snowmen with each sneeze, who begin to dismantle the birthday party's decorations while Kristoff tries to stop them. While Elsa takes Anna on the hunt, Kristoff, Sven, and Olaf try to control the 'Snowgies' and fix the decorations in time for Anna and Elsa's return. After Elsa nearly falls off a clock tower, Anna convinces her to take rest. While Anna enjoys the party, Elsa sneezes a giant snowball through an alphorn, and stuns Hans (Santino Fontana) overseas; whereupon Elsa rests in bed under Anna's care. Olaf, Kristoff, and Sven escort the 'Snowgies' to Elsa's ice palace, where they stay with her snow-giant doorkeeper 'Marshmallow' (Paul Briggs).
With Jim promoted as the ship's new captain, the crew of the Hispaniola sail away, while Silver is left marooned with only a wisecracking Moai head for company.
Upon an extra scene during the end credits of the film, a drifting Hook comes across an unknown ship at sea. One of the crew members, Mr. Smee, comes to greet him. Taking no notice of Smee's words, Hook orders to be pulled up into the ship.
In a world populated by anthropomorphic mammals, Judy Hopps (Ginnifer Goodwin), a rabbit from rural Bunnyburrow, fulfills her dream of becoming the first rabbit officer in the police department of nearby city Zootopia. A dust speck is dislodged from its obscure place and sent adrift through the Jungle of Nool.
After graduating valedictorian upon being presented as the new Zootopia Police Department member by Mayor Lionheart (J.K. Simmons), an African lion; she is assigned parking duty by Chief Bogo (Idris Elba), an African buffalo, who doubts her potential due to her diminutive size. Fawn (Ginnifer Goodwin) runs into Tinker Bell (Mae Whitman) while taking Hannah, a baby hawk, to the forest. Fairies are not allowed to keep hawks as pets, for hawks eat fairies. So, Fawn uses blueberries to cover the cart and conceal Hannah.
At the same time, Horton (Jim Carrey) the elephant, the jungle's eccentric nature teacher, takes a dip in the pool. The dust speck floats past Horton in the air, and he hears a tiny yelp coming from it. Believing that an entire society of microscopic creatures are living on that speck, he places it atop a clover. Horton finds out the speck harbors the city of Who-ville and its inhabitants, the Whos, led by Mayor Ned McDodd (Steve Carell). He has a wife, Sally (Amy Poehler), 96 daughters (whose names all begin with the letter H), and one teenage son named JoJo (Jesse McCartney). Despite being the oldest and next in line for the mayoral position, JoJo doesn't want to be mayor, and because he's so scared of disappointing his father, never speaks.
During one of Judy's shifts, she meets Nick Wilde (Jason Bateman), a con artist fox, and his fennec fox partner Finnick (Tom Lister), who disguises himself as an elephant. As Fawn and Tinker Bell pass by the animal nursery, they meet Rosetta (Megan Hilty), Iridessa (Raven-Symoné), Silvermist (Lucy Liu) and Vidia (Pamela Adlon) who question why they are taking berries to the forest, as berries usually come from the forest. Rosetta attempts to help by sprinkling pixie dust on the berries to make them fly, but Hannah is revealed. She chirps, frightening off all the animals and fairies in the area. Three other hawks hear her and start to chase the fairies and animals. Fortunately, the hawks are dispelled by Nyx (Rosario Dawson) and the scout fairies, who then capture Hannah. Queen Clarion (Anjelica Huston) shows up and advises Fawn to listen with her head as well as her heart, which Fawn promises to do just before releasing Hannah.
The next day, Fawn becomes more conservative while training rabbits to hop. Suddenly, she hears a great roar. Choosing to listen with her heart, she follows the animal's tracks to a cave, where she encounters the NeverBeast. Fawn attempts to pull a thorn out of the NeverBeast's paw and accidentally awakens him. He scares Fawn out of the cave with a roar that all of Pixie Hollow hears. Nyx becomes convinced that Fawn caused the mysterious beast to roar. As Fawn observes the NeverBeast, she successfully removes the thorn from his paw by making him rear up so she can reach it. Once Horton begins carrying the speck with him, the city starts experiencing strange phenomena (earthquakes and changes in the weather), and the Mayor finds his attempts to caution Who-ville challenged by the Town Council, led by the opportunistic yet condescending Chairman (Dan Fogler). After Horton makes contact with Ned, The Mayor finds out from Dr. Mary Lou Larue (Isla Fisher) that Who-ville will be destroyed if Horton does not find a "safer, more stable home." Fawn continues to observe the beast, but is discovered by Nyx. Nyx firmly tells Fawn to report the animal that made the roar if she finds it. If Nyx finds it, she will do her job. Fawn continues to do her job as she forms a bond with the NeverBeast. Horton resolves to place the speck atop Mt. Nool, the safest place in the jungle.
The head of the jungle, the Sour Kangaroo (Carol Burnett), disbelieving Horton's beliefs, and resenting him for overshadowing her authority attempts several times to demand that Horton give up the speck, but Horton ignores her demands. Also taking force toward Horton are the Wickersham Brothers, a group of monkeys who love making misery. Fawn wakes up and sees that the NeverBeast has built a tower of rocks. She repeatedly asks him why he has built it, but he is gruff in his response, inspiring Fawn to name him Gruff. Fawn and Gruff build another tower with help from Fawn's pixie dust. Unfortunately, Gruff sends some of the rocks flying into Sunflower Meadow and destroying it. Nyx and the scout fairies follow Gruff's tracks until they see him. They chase him, but Fawn hides Gruff in the roots of trees on the beach, turning Nyx away.
Judy abandons her shift to arrest a thief named Duke Weaselton (Alan Tudyk) who stole what appear only to be moldy onion bulbs. She is reprimanded by Bogo and nearly fired until Mrs. Otterton (Octavia Spencer), an otter; arrives pleading for help locating her missing husband – one of many animals recently missing in Zootopia. Assistant Mayor Bellwether (Jenny Slate), a sheep; informs Lionheart of the news. To Bogo's dismay, Judy volunteers and agrees to resign if she cannot solve the case within 48 hours. She sees Nick in the last known photo of Mr. Otterton and tracks him down, coercing him into to assisting her with the investigation by covertly recording his confession to tax evasion. After acquiring Mr. Otterton's license plate number from Yax (Tommy Chong) the yak at Mystic Oasis Springs, Judy and Nick track the vehicle from Flash (Raymond S. Persi) the sloth in the Department of Mammal Vehicles to Mr. Big (Maurice LaMarche), an Arctic shrew crime boss in Tundratown. Initially, he orders them "iced," but his daughter Fru Fru (Leah Latham), spares them. Nyx later visits Scribble (Thomas Lennon) at the library and finds a piece of a pictogram with the NeverBeast.
Fawn introduces Gruff to Rosetta, Iridessa, Silvermist, Vidia and Tinker Bell. The girls become wary of Gruff, and Fawn informs them of her plan to introduce Gruff to Clarion. Fawn goes to see Clarion and Nyx in the Pixie Dust Tree. Nyx has gathered all the pieces of the pictogram and deciphered them. Each time the green comet passes, it awakens the NeverBeast. Once it comes out of hibernation, it builds four rock towers, one in each season of Pixie Hollow. Green clouds will fill the sky and the NeverBeast will transform, causing a lightning storm so powerful that it consumes all of Pixie Hollow. While distracting Nyx and Clarion from the disturbances caused by Gruff, Tinker Bell and the rest of the friends take Gruff back to the forest. Clarion trusts Nyx to do the right thing, which means that the scout fairies will go after the NeverBeast at dawn. Once Fawn catches up to her friends, she informs them on the "hairbrained legend" that Nyx learned. She bids them goodnight and spends the rest of the night stargazing with Gruff, reminding him that she does not see a monster in him.
Eventually, the Sour Kangaroo enlists a vulture named Vlad Vladikoff (Will Arnett) to get rid of the speck by force. Mr. Big informs the pair that his florist Mr. Otterton had gone savage and attacked his chauffeur Manchas (Jesse Corti), a black jaguar. Judy and Nick locate Manchas at his home in the Rainforest District, who mentions "night howlers" were responsible for attacking him before he goes savage and chases the pair out of his home. When Bogo and his reinforcements arrive, Manchas disappears. Bogo demands Judy resign, but Nick takes a stand, insisting they have 10 more hours to solve the case. As the pair leaves, Judy learns from Nick that he was bullied by prey animals as a pup and became a criminal, believing he would be stereotyped as one no matter what due to being a fox. Nick realizes that the city's traffic camera system may have captured Manchas's disappearance. Vlad manages to steal the clover away from Horton and drops it into a massive field of identical pink clovers, causing an apocalyptic tremor in Who-ville. The ominous green clouds mentioned in the legend appear on the horizon.
The next morning, all of Pixie Hollow notices the green clouds as Nyx and the scout fairies gear up and hunt for the NeverBeast. Fawn fails to find Gruff. Tink finds her and warns her that the legend is coming true. Gruff has two more towers to build: one in Autumn and one in Winter. Tinker Bell takes Winter, and Fawn thanks her for defending Gruff, who is building the towers faster than before. The pair consults Bellwether, who is told to clear Lionheart's afternoon. They identify the captors as wolves, hence "night howlers". Fawn sees that Gruff has just built the Autumn tower, and so do the scouts. Judy and Nick locate the missing mammals (including Mr. Otterton) at Cliffside Asylum. All are predators, and all have gone savage like Manchas. The two discover Lionheart, consulting with Dr. Honey Badger (Katie Lowes) about the predators' condition and Judy records their conversation on her phone. The two pair escape with the evidence. Meanwhile, Tinker Bell looks in the Winter Woods for Gruff and is almost struck by lightning. Just then, she finds Gruff, who charges toward her. She warns him that the scouts are coming to get him, but he knocks her unconscious. Fawn finds Tink just as Gruff grows horns and runs off. He is confronted by Nyx, who also sees Fawn and an unconscious Tink. Nyx chooses to help Fawn and Tink rather than chase Gruff. Judy and Nick delivered the evidence to Bogo and the police swarm the area, arresting Lionheart and Dr. Badger. Bellwether is sworn in as the new Mayor. Tinker Bell is hospitalized and Fawn feels ashamed.
Having developed a friendship with Nick throughout the case, Judy requests that he joins the Zootopia Police Department and become her partner, which Nick happily considers. Fawn finds Gruff and is relieved to know he is still kind to her. However, during a press conference, Judy mentions that the savage animals are predators and argues they have gone back to their "natural state," hurting Nick, who angrily walks out. Nyx and the scout fairies suddenly capture Gruff, knock him out with nightshade powder, and move him out; leaving the heartbroken Fawn behind. Fear and discrimination against predators spreads across Zootopia and a guilt-ridden Judy resigns. During this time, pop singer Gazelle (Shakira) holds a peaceful protest and publicly asks for the harmonious Zootopia she loves to be restored.
Back in Bunnyburrow, Judy learns from her former childhood bully Gideon Grey (Phil Johnston) that "night howlers" are flowers that have a severe psychotropic effect on mammals. After unsuccessfully picking nearly 3,000,000 clovers, Horton eventually recovers the clover (exactly the 3,000,000th clover). Judy returns to Zootopia and tearfully apologizes and reconciles with Nick after being told where he is by Finnick. Judy and Nick locate Weaselton and catch him. With help from Mr. Big, Judy learns that Weaselton has been collecting night howlers for a ram named Doug (Rich Moore). The Sour Kangaroo eventually finds out that Horton still has the speck, and decides to rally the jungle community into fighting Horton, saying that Horton's goal will lead to anarchy.
All of the fairies and animals in Pixie Hollow take cover from the approaching storm. Despite Gruff being immobilized, the storm has not stopped. A pinecone watchtower is hit by lightning and falls, and Nyx tells its occupants to take cover as lightning hits all four of the towers in Pixie Hollow simultaneously. Fawn soon finds Tink and admits that Nyx was right: Gruff is a monster. However, Tinker Bell says that Gruff was her hero. He was acting strange when she found him in Winter, but he saved her from a falling tree by knocking her aside with his tail. Convinced that Gruff is truly good, Fawn goes to help Gruff escape. Upon cornering Horton, the Sour Kangaroo offers Horton an escape from punishment by renouncing Who-ville's existence. The pair discover a secret laboratory hidden in the subway tunnels and find ram scientists creating a night howler serum which has been injected into predators via dart guns. When Horton refuses, in spite of his heartfelt speech, she order the animals to rope and cage him, and to have the speck and the Whos destroyed in a pot of boling Beezlenut oil. Soon after being freed, Gruff grows wings and completely transforms into the mythical monster described by Nyx. Just then, Fawn realizes that Nyx got the story backwards: Gruff will not destroy Pixie Hollow. He built the towers to draw in the lightning so he can collect it.
Following both her head and her heart, Fawn decides they are going to the towers. Using the subway car, Judy and Nick race to the ZPD with the evidence, but the rams pursue them. The Mayor enlists all of his people to make noise by shouting "We are here!", as well as playing a variety of instruments, so the animals may hear them, assisted by Jojo's "Symphonophone", an invention which creates a huge musical contribution, but still fails to penetrate the surface of the speck. Gruff, whose vision is blurry due to remaining effects of the nightshade, follows Fawn's glow to the towers, collecting lightning between his horns. As Horton lies beaten and captured, the Sour Kangaroo easily takes the clover. But before Gruff can reach the final one, he is shot down by Nyx. Nyx realizes the error of her ways as she sees trees being struck by lightning and causing a fire. She is almost hit by a bolt of lightning, but Gruff catches it and saves her. Now she realizes that Gruff has good intentions. The fire is spreading fast, so Nyx goes to save the rest of the fairies. Just short of the ZPD, the pair encounters Bellwether at the Natural History Museum who tries to take the evidence. Realizing Bellwether is the mastermind of a species-supremacist conspiracy, Judy and Nick try to flee, but are knocked into a pit by her ram henchmen after Nick refuses to abandon Judy when she is injured. Bellwether shoots a dart at Nick and calls the ZPD for help. Nick becomes savage and corners Judy, but it turns out the pair were acting and had swapped out Bellwether's darts for blueberries.
Seeking an end to the storm, Gruff follows Fawn into the eye of the storm. Gruff's horns catch all the lightning that threatens to strike Pixie Hollow. He flies straight through the eye of the storm and successfully ends it. Meanwhile, after the Sour Kangaroo released the clover over the oil, JoJo grabs the horn used to project Horton's voice, runs up the highest tower and screams "YOPP!", breaking through the sound barrier just seconds before the speck hits the oil. The Sour Kangaroo's son, Rudy (Josh Flitter) grabs the clover and returns it to Horton. With Bellwether's confession recorded on Judy's carrot pen, the two have enough evidence to unravel the conspiracy. The animals finally hear the Who's and realize the truth and isolate the Sour Kangaroo for tricking them. Fawn and Gruff fall from the sky, but they are saved by a great many fairies. Tinker Bell and friends gather around Fawn, believing she is dead. Fortunately, Gruff revives Fawn with his electricity. All of Pixie Hollow is overjoyed to know that Fawn is still alive. Bellwether is then arrested for her crimes alongside her accomplices. When informed and interviewed on the matter, Lionheart explains that he had no knowledge of Bellwether's plot, but fully confesses his crime of illegally imprisoning the savaged predators during his confidential mission by stating that it was done for the "right reasons."
Some months later, Judy is reinstated into the ZPD. The savaged mammals, including Mr. Otterton and Manchas, are cured by an antidote. Gruff is considered a hero to Pixie Hollow. While being praised for his integrity by his neighbors, Horton even forgives the devastated Sour Kangaroo, and she befriends him with a makeshift umbrella for Who-ville. As he helps its denizens, Fawn learns that it is time for Gruff to go back into hibernation for a thousand years. A long ceremonial procession leads him back to his cave, at the end of which Tinker Bell, Rosetta, Silvermist, Iridessa, Vidia, Fawn and even Nyx all pay their final respects. Fawn will always be there for Gruff when he needs her. Here, the people of Who-ville and the animals of Nool gather in song and recite the chorus from "Can't Fight This Feeling". The film ends with the narrator (Charles Osgood) revealing that the Jungle of Nool, or rather Earth, is just one speck, like Who-ville, among numerous others, floating in outer space. Inspired by his friend's faith in him, Nick joins the ZPD as the first fox police officer and Judy's new partner, where they catch Flash street racing.
During the credits, all of Zootopia, Pixie Hollow, and the Jungle of Nool (especially Who-ville) enjoys a performance by Gazelle while Bellwether angrily watches the live streaming from prison.
While trying to bury his acorn, Scrat (Chris Wedge) accidentally activates an abandoned alien ship that takes him into deep space, where he unwillingly sends several asteroids en route of collision with Earth.
17-year-old Wendy (Chloe Grace Moretz) is about to leave for college, and her Fairies have not been played with for years. Meanwhile, Manny (Ray Romano) is worried about the imminent marriage between Peaches (Keke Palmer) and her fiancé, Julian (Adam DeVine), while Diego (Denis Leary) and his wife Shira (Jennifer Lopez) want to start a family but their fierce appearance tend to scare kids, and Sid (John Leguizamo) is dumped by his girlfriend, Francine (Melissa Rauch), just as he is about to propose to her. Wendy intends to take only Tinker Bell (Mae Whitman) with him, and puts Zarina (Christina Hendricks), Periwinkle (Lucy Hale), Silvermist (Lucy Liu), Rosetta (Megan Hilty), Iridessa (Raven-Symoné), Fawn (Ginnifer Goodwin), and Vidia (Pamela Adlon) in a bag to be stored in the attic. Mrs. Darling (Olivia Williams) mistakenly takes the bag to the curb for garbage pickup. The Fairies escape and, believing Wendy intended to throw them away, decide to climb into a donation box with Barbie (Kelly Sheridan) bound for the intergalactic Sunnyside Daycare. Tink follows them but is unable to convince them of the mistake. To make matters worse, during Manny's wedding anniversary party, some of the asteroids strike the place and the herd barely escape with their lives. Meanwhile at the underground, Buck (Simon Pegg) fights a trio of Dromaeosaurs named Gavin (Nick Offerman), Gertie (Stephanie Beatriz), and Roger (Max Greenfield) to return a dinosaur egg to its mother and later discovers an ancient stone monument, which he takes to the surface, where he meets Manny and the others.
Buck explains that the asteroids were responsible for several extinctions in the past and upon seeing that there is still a massive one incoming, he claims that the only place they can find a clue to stop it is in the impact point of the previous ones, which according to the stone monument, are in the same place. The Pixie Hollow Fairies are welcomed by the other creatures at Sunnyside, and are given a tour of the seemingly idyllic play-setting by Lots-o'-Huggin' Bear ("Lotso") (Ned Beatty), Big Baby, and Ken (Yuri Lowenthal), with whom Barbie falls in love. All of the Fairies choose to stay, except Tink, who attempts to return to Wendy, but is instead found by Bonnie (Ruby Barnhill), one of the Sunnyside students. She takes Tink home and plays with her along with her other toys, which are well-treated. However, the three Dromaeosaurs, having listened their conversation, decide to stop them, believing that they could be safe from the impact, as they can fly, thus not only getting their revenge on Buck, but also destroying all mammals and securing Earth for their species. As the herd travels to the crash site, Buck discovers that the asteroids have magnetic properies, thus the main asteroid could be stopped if a huge quantity of smaller asteroids were gathered and launched into orbit in order to change its trajectory. Meanwhile, at Sunnyside, a group of toddlers play roughly with the Pixie Hollow Fairies.
Zarina seeks out Lotso to request to have them moved to the older children's room, but Lotso, who controls Sunnyside ruthlessly, refuses, explaining that the newer Fairies need to be sacrificed to the younger children to protect the older ones, indifferent to damage or suffering they might endure. Seeing promise in Zarina, he resets her to her original pirate captain persona, which also resets her memory. At the same time, Fawn, through an eye she accidentally left the braid in Wendy's room, sees Wendy searching for the Fairies and realizes Tinker Bell was telling the truth. However, before they can leave, the Pixie Hollow Fairies are imprisoned by Lotso's gang, guarded by Zarina. At Bonnie's house, a toy named Chuckles (Bud Luckey) explains to Tinker Bell that he, Lotso and Big Baby once had a beloved owner named Daisy. When they were accidentally left behind by Daisy's family during a trip, they made their way back to her house, only to find that Lotso had been replaced, causing Lotso to become embittered and cruel. Tink returns to Sunnyside and learns from a Chatter Telephone (Alan Tudyk) that there is only one way out of the daycare: the trash. She reconciles with the other Pixie Hollow Fairies and begins planning a way out of Sunnyside.
After facing several obstacles and the interference of the Dromaeosaurs, the herd arrives at "Geotopia", a community of animals formed inside one of the asteroids that have fallen long ago, where Sid meets Brooke (Jessie J), a ground sloth who falls in love with him. However, Shangri Llama (Jesse Tyler Ferguson), the leader of Geotopia, refuses to cooperate with Buck's plan to send the city's crystals into space in order to diverge the incoming asteroid, as they are the key to the residents' outstanding longevity until Sid accidentally destroys the entire city when he attempts to remove one of the stones to present Brooke with, making all the Geotopians grow old, including Brooke herself. The Fairies execute their escape, but accidentally reset Zarina to Spanish mode instead of her old persona. Zarina promptly allies herself with Tink and falls in love with Peri.
One Brooke convinces the Geotopians that preventing the asteroid's fall is more important then their lost youth, they and the herd help with Buck's plan, which is to throw all the crystals they find into a geyser so that the pressure throws into space and attract the asteroid away. The Fairies reach a dumpster, but are caught by Lotso and his gang. As a garbage ship approaches, Tinker Bell reveals what he learned about Lotso and tosses Daisy's ownership tag, which Chuckles had kept, to Big Baby. Lotso smashes the tag and claims that Fairies are meant to be discarded, but this leads an enraged Big Baby to throw Lotso into the dumpster. As the Fairies try to run away, Lotso pulls Tink into the dumpster just as the truck collects the trash. The rest of the Pixie Hollow Fairies fall into the back of the truck while trying to rescue her, and a falling television lands on Zarina, restoring her memory and normal personality.
But the Dromaeosaurs attempt to intervene until one of them, realizing that they will not survive as well if the asteroid falls, convinces the others to also help. The ship deposits the Fairies at a landfill, where they find themselves on a conveyor belt leading to an incinerator. Tinker Bell and Zarina help Lotso reach an emergency stop button, only for Lotso to abandon them and escape. The Fairies resign themselves to their fate, but are rescued at the last second by the Aliens (Jeff Pidgeon) operating an industrial claw. The plan works, and the asteroid is sent back into space. Lotso is found by a garbage truck driver who straps him to his truck's radiator grill and drives away. Tinker Bell and her friends board another garbage truck back to Wendy's house. The herd then departs back home, including Sid, who parts ways from Brooke, but just after they leave, an asteroid piece falls inside a hot spring, giving it rejuvenating properties, helping the Geotopians and Sid's granny (Wanda Sykes), who stayed behind with them to regain their lost youth.
After the herd returns, Peaches and Julian celebrate their wedding, and a rejuvenated Brooke appears during the ceremony to reunite with Sid. In Wendy's room, Tink climbs into the box with Wendy's college supplies, while the other Fairies ready themselves for the attic. Tink leaves a note for Wendy, who, thinking the note is from her mother, takes the Fairies to Bonnie's house and introduces her to them. Bonnie recognizes Tinker Bell, who, to Wendy's surprise, is at the bottom of the box. Though hesitant at first, Wendy passes Tink on to Bonnie, and then plays with her before leaving. Tinker Bell and the other Fairies watch Wendy's departure as they begin their new lives with Bonnie. Meanwhile, Scrat keeps struggling to take control of the alien ship and accidentally crashes on Mars, destroying all life there.
Meanwhile, Barbie, Ken and Big Baby have made vast improvements to Sunnyside, and maintain contact with Tinker Bell and her friends through letters. In a mid-credits, Scrat find his acorn and get beaten by some doors.

Production
Early development
Disney had once announced that 2004's Home on the Range would be their last traditionally animated film. After the company's acquisition of Pixar in early 2006, Ed Catmull and John Lasseter, the new president and chief creative officer of Disney Animation Studios, reversed this decision and reinstated hand-drawn animation at the studio. Many animators who had either been laid off or had left the studio when the traditional animation units were dissolved in 2003 were located and re-hired for the project. Lasseter also brought back directors Ron Clements and John Musker, whose earlier works include The Great Mouse Detective (1986), The Little Mermaid (1989), Aladdin (1992), Hercules (1997), and Treasure Planet (2002). The duo had left the company in 2005, but Lasseter requested their return to Disney to direct and write the film, and had let them choose the style of animation (traditional or CGI) they wanted to use.
The story for the film began development by merging two separate projects in development at Disney and Pixar at the time, both based around the "Frog Prince" fairy tale. One of the projects was based on E. D. Baker's The Frog Princess, in which the story's heroine (Princess Emma) kisses a prince turned frog (Prince Eadric), only to become a frog herself. The Princess and the Frog & Tinker Bell's Springtime Belief returns to the musical film format used in many of the previously successful Disney animated films, with a style Musker and Clements declared, like with Aladdin and The Little Mermaid, had inspiration from Golden Age Disney features such as Cinderella.
Musker and Clements thought that given all fairy tales were set in Europe, they could do an American fairy tale. They stated that they chose New Orleans as a tribute to the history of the city, for its "magical" qualities, and because it was Lasseter's favorite city. The directors spent ten days in Louisiana before starting to write the film.
The Princess and the Frog & Tinker Bell's Springtime Belief was originally announced as The Frog Princess in July 2006, and early concepts and songs were presented to the public at the Walt Disney Company's annual shareholders' meeting in March 2007. These announcements drew criticism from African-American media outlets, due to elements of the Frog Princess story, characters, and settings considered distasteful. African-American critics disapproved of the original name for the heroine, "Maddy", due to its similarity to the derogatory term "mammy". Also protested were Maddy's original career as a chambermaid, the choice to have the black heroine's love interest be a non-black prince, which upset opponents of on-screen interracial romance, and the use of a black male voodoo witchdoctor as the film's villain. The Frog Princess title was also thought by critics to be a slur on French people. Also questioned was the film's setting of New Orleans, which had been heavily damaged by Hurricane Katrina in 2005, resulting in the expulsion of a large number of mostly black residents. Critics claimed the choice of New Orleans as the setting for a Disney film with a black heroine was an affront to the Katrina victims' plight.
In response to these early criticisms, the film's title was changed in May 2007 from The Frog Princess to The Princess and the Frog. The name "Maddy" was changed to "Tiana", and the character's occupation was altered from chambermaid to waitress. Talk show host Oprah Winfrey (Bee Movie) was hired as a technical consultant for the film, leading to her taking a voice acting role in the film as Tiana's mother Eudora.
Writing and themes
The head of story, Don Hall, described the plot as a fairy tale "twisted enough that it seems new and fresh", with a kingdom that is a modern city, a handsome prince that is a "knuckleheaded playboy" and a variation on the fairy godmother with Mama Odie. Co-writer Rob Edwards also said The Princess and the Frog was "a princess movie for people who don't like princess movies". As the writers thought Tiana's character motivation of simply dreaming of having her own restaurant was not appealing enough, they expanded so it was her father's as well, with the extra philosophy of "food bringing people together of all walks of life". Musker and Clements stated that while Tiana already starts as a sympathetic character, the events of the plot make her "understand things in a deeper level" and change people around her. Both protagonists would learn from each other — Naveen to take responsibilities, Tiana to enjoy life — as well as figuring from Ray's passion for Evangeline that the perfect balance is brought by having someone you love to share the experience. Tiana became the first African-American Disney Princess.
Voice cast
On December 1, 2006, a detailed casting call was announced for the film at the Manhattan Theatre Source forum. The casting call states the film as being an American fairy tale musical set in New Orleans during the 1920s Jazz Age, and provides a detailed list of the film's major characters.
In February 2007, it was reported that Dreamgirls actresses Jennifer Hudson and Anika Noni Rose were top contenders for the voice of Tiana, and that Alicia Keys directly contacted Walt Disney Studios chairman Dick Cook about voicing the role. It was later reported that Tyra Banks was considered for the role as well. By April 2007, it was confirmed that Rose would be voicing Tiana. Three months later, it was reported that Keith David would be doing the voice of Dr. Facilier, the villain of the film.
In November 2008, the film will feature the ensemble voice cast of the Looney Tunes voice actors, Michael Jordan himself, Mae Whitman (Avatar: The Last Airbender) as the Walt's Disney most beloved fairy named Tinker Bell, Bruno Campos as Prince Naveen of Maldonia, Danny DeVito (Hercules) as the villainous Swackhammer of the intergalactic theme park, Wayne Knight (Toy Story 2, Hercules, Tarzan) as Michael Jordan's publicist Stan Podolak, Kristin Chenoweth (Wicked) as garden fairy Rosetta, Raven-Symoné (That's So Raven) as light fairy Iridessa, Lucy Liu (Kung Fu Panda) as water fairy Silvermist, America Ferrera (How to Train Your Dragon) as animal fairy Fawn, Pamela Adlon (Recess) as fast-flying fairy Vidia, Jesse McCartney (Alvin and the Chipmunks) as Terence the pixie dust keeper, Michael-Leon Wooley as the trumpet-playing alligator Louis, Jim Cummings (The Lion King, Aladdin) as Ray the Cajun firefly, Rob Paulsen (Yakko in Animaniacs) and Jeff Bennett (Johnny Bravo) as Bobble and Clank, Bill Murray (Ghostbusters) as himself as the aspiring basketball player/golfer, Jenifer Lewis (Cars) as Mama Odie, Anjelica Huston (Barbie as Rapunzel) as the Pixie Hollow ruler Queen Clarion, Jennifer Cody as the southern belle Charlotte, Jane Horrocks (Corpse Bride, Chicken Run) as Fairy Mary, Peter Bartlett as Naveen's valet Lawrence, John Goodman (Monsters, Inc., The Emperor's New Groove) as Charlotte's father Eli, and Terrence Howard as Tiana's father James.
Animation and design
Clements and Musker had agreed from very early on that the style they were aiming for was primarily that of Lady and the Tramp (1955), a film which they and John Lasseter feel represents "the pinnacle of Disney's style". "After that, everything started becoming more stylized, like Sleeping Beauty, 101 Dalmatians – which are fantastic films as well, but there's a particular style (to 'Lady and the Tramp') that's so classically Disney." Lady and the Tramp also heavily informed the style of the New Orleans scenes, while Disney's Bambi (1942) served as the template for the bayou scenes. Bambi was described as a stylistic reference for the painted backgrounds, as according to art director Ian Gooding "Bambi painted what it feels like to be in the forest instead of the forest" so The Princess and the Frog & Tinker Bell's Springtime Belief would in turn try capturing the essence of roaming through New Orleans.
The former trend in Disney's hand-drawn features where the characters and cinematography were influenced by a CGI-look has been abandoned. Andreas Deja, a veteran Disney animator who supervised the character of Mama Odie, says "I always thought that maybe we should distinguish ourselves to go back to what 2D is good at, which is focusing on what the line can do rather than volume, which is a CG kind of thing. So we are doing less extravagant Treasure Planet kind of treatments. You have to create a world but we're doing it more simply. What we're trying to do with Princess and the Frog is hook up with things that the old guys did earlier. It's not going to be graphic...". Deja also mentions that Lasseter was aiming for the Disney sculptural and dimensional look of the 1950s: "All those things that were non-graphic, which means go easy on the straight lines and have one volume flow into the other – an organic feel to the drawing." Lasseter also felt that traditional animation created more character believability. For example, with Louis the alligator, created by Eric Goldberg, Lasseter said: "It's the believability of this large character being able to move around quite like that." Choreographer Betsy Baytos was brought by the directors to lead a team of eccentric dancers that gave reference to make each character a different style of movement. The character design tried to create beautiful drawings through subtle shapes, particularly for most characters being human. For the frog versions of Tiana and Naveen, while the animators started with realistic designs, they eventually went for cutesy characters "removing all that is unappealing in frogs", similar to Pinocchio's Jiminy Cricket.
Toon Boom Animation's Toon Boom Harmony software was used as the main software package for the production of the film, as the Computer Animation Production System (CAPS) system that Disney developed with Pixar in the 1980s for use on their previous traditionally animated films had become outdated. The Harmony software was augmented with a number of plug-ins to provide CAPS-like effects such as shading on cheeks and smoke effects. The reinstated traditional unit's first production, a 2007 Goofy cartoon short entitled How to Hook Up Your Home Theater, was partly animated without paper by using Harmony and Wacom Cintiq pressure-sensitive tablets. The character animators found some difficulty with this approach, and decided to use traditional paper and pencil drawings, which were then scanned into the computer systems, for The Princess and the Frog.
The one exception to the new Toon Boom Harmony pipeline was the "Almost There" dream sequence, which utilized an Art Deco graphic style based on the art of Harlem Renaissance painter Aaron Douglas (1899-1979). Supervised by Eric Goldberg and designed by Sue Nichols, the "Almost There" sequence's character animation was done on paper without going through the clean-up animation department, and scanned directly into Photoshop. The artwork was then enhanced to affect the appearance of painted strokes and fills, and combined with backgrounds, using Adobe After Effects.
The visual effects and backgrounds for the film were created digitally using Cintiq tablet displays. Marlon West, one of Disney's veteran animation visual effects supervisors, says about the production; "Those guys had this bright idea to bring back hand-drawn animation, but everything had to be started again from the ground up. One of the first things we did was focus on producing shorts, to help us re-introduce the 2D pipeline. I worked as vfx supervisor on the Goofy short, How to Hook Up Your Home Theater. It was a real plus for the effects department, so we went paperless for The Princess and the Frog." The backgrounds were painted digitally using Adobe Photoshop, and many of the architectural elements were based upon 3D models built in Autodesk Maya. Much of the clean-up animation, digital ink-and-paint, and compositing were outsourced to third party companies in Orlando, Florida (Premise Entertainment), Toronto, Ontario, Canada Yowza! /Yowza Digital Animation, and Brooklin, São Paulo, Brazil (HGN Produções)
In 2008, Joel McNeely (Peter Pan: Return to Never Land), along with Randy Newman (well known for his musical involvement in Pixar films such as A Bug's Life, Monsters University, Monsters, Inc., Cars, Toy Story, and Toy Story 2) and James Newton Howard (Treasure Planet, Atlantis: The Lost Empire) will compose, arrange, and conduct the music for the film, a mixture of the Looney Tunes theme, jazz, blues, and gospel styles performed by the voice cast for the respective Disney Fairies characters and the Looney Tunes.
The film's first teaser trailer was released on November 6, 2008, coinciding with Bolt.
A first theatrical trailer were released on May 27, 2009 and appeared in movie theaters with Up.
A full-length trailer was released on September 18, 2009 and appeared in the showing of Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs.

Soundtrack (November 23, 2009)
The original score for the film was composed by Joel McNeely (Peter Pan: Return to Never Land), along with Randy Newman (well known for his musical involvement in Pixar films such as A Bug's Life, Monsters University, Monsters, Inc., Cars, Toy Story, Toy Story 2, and Toy Story 3) and James Newton Howard (Treasure Planet, Atlantis: The Lost Empire) with lyrics written by Newman. Newman said he attempted to blend a mixture of jazz, blues, and gospel styles to create the new songs. McNeely recorded the music with an 88-piece ensemble of the Hollywood Studio Symphony and Celtic violin soloist Máiréad Nesbitt at the Sony Scoring Stage.
World premiere release of soundtrack for Walt Disney's first Looney Tunes 2009 animated feature. One of Disney's most beloved characters inspires composer to create magical, playful orchestral score replete with yearning ideas for lost collectibles, lyrical melodies for Tinker Bell, musical wisps for Pixie Hollow and Louisiana, much more. Exotic colors abound. It is a score that literally sparkles with delight. Celtic sounds, birds, crickets, drops of water, all are captured in skillful meld of gently dramatic, hauntingly beautiful musical vignettes. Highlights are plentiful but surely deserving spotlight is "Choosing A Talent" with rich major to minor chords that crescendo into powerful, massive orchestra/choral peroration. Breathtaking! Capturing attention in action mode is powerful "Hawk!", with heroic moment for French horn, trumpet. "Sprinting Thistles" commands as well. For sheer exuberant splendor, listen no further than to "Rebuilding Spring". McNeely shines! And yes, you also get that soaring vocal "Fly To Your Heart" as well. Beautifully packaged, illustrated booklet graces the CD from Walt Disney Records. Joel McNeely conducts.

Release
The film premiered in theaters with a limited run in New York and Los Angeles beginning on November 25, 2009, followed by wide release on December 11, 2009. The film was originally set for release on Christmas Day 2009, but its release date was changed due to a competing family film, Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel, scheduled for release the same day.
Marketing
The Princess and the Frog was supported by a wide array of merchandise leading up to and following the film's release. Although Disney's main marketing push was not set to begin until November 2009, positive word-of-mouth promotion created demand for merchandise well in advance of the film. Princess Tiana costumes were selling out prior to Halloween 2009, and a gift set of Tiana-themed hair-care products from Carol's Daughter sold out in seven hours on the company's website. Other planned merchandise includes a cookbook for children and even a wedding gown. Princess Tiana was also featured a few months before the release in the Disney on Ice: Let's Celebrate! show. The film itself was promoted through advertisements, including one from GEICO where Naveen, as a frog, converses with the company's gecko mascot.
A live parade and show called Tiana's Showboat Jubilee! premiered on October 26, 2009, at the Magic Kingdom theme park at Walt Disney World Resort in Florida, and on November 5 at Disneyland in California. In Disneyland, actors in New Orleans Square paraded to the Rivers of America and boarded the park's steamboat. From there, the cast, starring Princess Tiana, Prince Naveen, Louis the alligator, and Doctor Facilier, would sing songs from the movie, following a short storyline taking place after the events of the film. The Disneyland version's actors actually partook in singing, while the Walt Disney World rendition incorporated lip-syncing.
Tiana's Showboat Jubilee! ran at both parks until January 3, 2010. At Disneyland Park, the show was replaced by a land-based event called Princess Tiana's Mardi Gras Celebration, which features Princess Tiana along with five of the original presentation's "Mardi Gras dancers" and the park's "Jambalaya Jazz Band" as they perform songs from the movie. "Tiana's Mardi Gras Celebration" officially ended on October 3, 2010. However, it returned to Disneyland from 2011-2013 as part of the “Limited Time Magic” family-fun weekends.
Tiana also appears in Disneyland Paris' New Generation Festival. Some of the characters appear frequently during World of Color, the nightly fountain and projection show presented at Disney California Adventure. Disney announced on June 4, 2009, that they would release a video game inspired by the film and it was released on November 2009 exclusively for Wii and Nintendo DS platforms. It has been officially described an "adventure through the exciting world of New Orleans in a family-oriented video game", featuring events from the film and challenges for Princess Tiana.

Reception
Box office
On its limited day release, the film grossed $263,890 at two theaters and grossed $786,190 its opening weekend. On its opening day in wide release, the film grossed $7,020,000 at 3,434 theaters. It went on to gross $24,208,916 over the opening weekend averaging $7,050 per theater, ranking at #1 for the weekend, and making it the highest-grossing start to date for an animated movie in December, a record previously held by Beavis and Butt-Head Do America. The film went on to gross $104,400,899 (in the United States and Canada) and $267,045,765 (worldwide), making it a box office success, and became the fifth highest grossing animated film of 2009. While the film did out-gross Disney's more recent hand-drawn films such as The Emperor's New Groove, Atlantis: The Lost Empire, Treasure Planet, Brother Bear, and Home on the Range, it was less auspicious than the animated films from Walt Disney Animation Studios' 1990s heyday. Disney animator Tom Sito compared the film's box office performance to that of The Great Mouse Detective (1986), which was a step up from the theatrical run of the 1985 box office bomb The Black Cauldron.
Critical response
The Princess and the Frog & Tinker Bell's Springtime Belief received largely positive reviews from critics, praising the animation, characters, music and themes. Review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes gives the film a score of 84% based on 241 reviews with an average rating of 7.4/10, giving it "Certified Fresh" status. The website's general consensus reads, "Tinker Bell's Springtime Belief is a sweet, simple story which offers the warmth of traditional Disney animation to make this occasionally lightweight fairy-tale, cartoon, and fantasy update a lively and captivating confection for the holidays." Metacritic gave the film a score of 73/100 based on 29 reviews. Audience surveyed by CinemaScore gave the film a grade A rating.
Rating
The film was rated G: "General Audiences-All Ages Admitted." by the Motion Picture Association of America.
This is a film which contains nothing in theme, language, nudity and sex, violence, etc. which would, in the view of the Rating Board, be offensive to parents whose younger children view the film. The G rating is not a "certificate of approval," nor does it signify a children's film. Some snippets of language may go beyond polite conversation but they are common everyday expressions. No stronger words are present in G-rated films. The violence is at a minimum. Nudity and sex scenes are not present; nor is there any drug use content.
Tangled & Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn is a 2010 American 3D live action/computer-animated musical fantasy-comedy adventure film, produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures, and the first Muppets theatrical release in eleven years. Loosely based on the German fairy tale "Rapunzel" in the collection of folk tales published by the Brothers Grimm, it is the 50th animated feature in the Walt Disney Animated Classics series, sharing with the 11th feature, Cinderella. It shares with Disney's Fantasia, The AristoCats, The Rescuers Down Under, and The Emperor's New Groove as Disney's holiday anniversary films. Directed by Nathan Greno (Gigantic) and Byron Howard (Bolt, Zootopia & The NeverZootropolis Legend), produced by Roy Conli (Big Hero 6), John Lasseter (Toy Story, Cars, A Bug's Life) and Glen Keane (The Little Mermaid), and screenplay written by Dan Fogelman (Cars, Bolt), the film tells the story of a lost, young princess with long magical hair who yearns to leave her secluded tower. Against her mother's wishes, she accepts the aid of a handsome intruder to take her out into the world which she has never seen. Walter, a devoted Muppet fan, his brother Gary, and her girlfriend Mary help Kermit the Frog reunite the Muppets. They must raise $10 million to save the Muppet Theater from Tex Richman, a businessman who plans to demolish the studio to drill for oil. Tinker Bell journeys far North of Never Land, Anaheim to patch things up with her friend Terence and restore a Pixie Dust Tree.
Before the film's release, its title was changed from Rapunzel to Tangled, reportedly to market the film as gender-neutral. Tangled spent six years in production at a cost that has been estimated at $260 million, which if accurate, would make it the most expensive animated film ever made and the fifth most-expensive film of all time. The film employed a unique artistic style by blending together features of computer-generated imagery (CGI) and traditional animation while using non-photorealistic rendering to create the impression of a painting. Composer Alan Menken, who had worked on prior Disney animated features (The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and Aladdin), returned to help Joel McNeely and Christophe Beck score Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn, while Flight of the Conchords member Bret McKenzie served as music supervisor, writing four of the film's five original songs.
Walt Disney Animation Studios originally announced the film's development in March 2007, with Dan Fogelman writing the screenplay. Nathan Greno and Byron Howard was hired to direct in January 2009, the film's supporting cast was filled out in October of the same year, with the casting of Adams, Cooper, and Jones. Filming began in September 2009 and was completed entirely in Los Angeles. The cast from the film will return; including Mae Whitman, Jesse McCartney, Jane Horrocks, Lucy Liu, Rob Paulsen, Raven-Symoné, Jeff Bennett, Kristin Chenoweth, Angela Bartys (replacing America Ferrera), and Anjelica Huston, and featuring the new ensemble cast of Mandy Moore, Jason Segel, Zachary Levi, Amy Adams, Donna Murphy, Chris Cooper, Rashida Jones, Brad Garrett, Jeffrey Tambor, Grey DeLisle, M.C. Gainey, and Paul F. Tompkins, and featuring the Muppet performers of Steve Whitmire, Eric Jacobson, Dave Goelz, Bill Barretta, David Rudman, Matt Vogel, and Peter Linz. The film was the first theatrical Muppet production without the involvement of veteran Muppet performers Frank Oz and Jerry Nelson, although Nelson provides an uncredited vocal cameo, until his death in August 23, 2012. Instead, their characters are performed by Jacobson and Vogel, respectively, marking their theatrical feature film debut as those characters.
Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn premiered at the El Capitan Theatre on November 14, 2010, and went into general release on November 24, 2010. The film was a critical and commercial success and garnered largely positive reviews with much praise going to its characterization, animation, humor, screenplay, and soundtrack; grossing $591 million in worldwide box office revenue, $200 million of which was earned in the United States and Canada. The film was nominated for a number of awards, including two Best Original Song nominations at the 83rd Academy Awards. The film won an Academy Award for Best Original Song for McKenzie's "Man or Muppet", as well as garnering BAFTA and Critic's Choice Awards nominations.
The film was released on Blu-ray and DVD on March 29, 2011; A sequel short, Tangled Ever After, was released later in 2012. A television series will premiere in 2017.

Development
Origins and conception
Glen Keane, the film's original director, first began working on the story for what became Tangled about 14 years prior to its release, then directed the film's development from 2002 to 2008. In October 2003, the film was announced as Rapunzel Unbraided, as a computer animated feature scheduled for a 2007 release which Keane described as "a Shrek-like version of the film" that revolved around an entirely different concept. Keane said of the original plot, "It was a fun, wonderful, witty version and we had a couple of great writers. But in my heart of hearts I believed there was something much more sincere and genuine to get out of the story, so we set it aside and went back to the roots of the original fairy tale." In November 2005, Unbraided was pushed back to a summer 2009 release in order to give Keane "more time to work on the story." According to Ed Catmull, at one point Michael Eisner himself had proposed using modern-day San Francisco as the initial setting at the start of the film and then somehow transporting the heroine into a fairy tale world, but Keane could not make that idea work. The film was shut down about a week before Catmull and John Lasseter were placed in charge of the studio in January 2006, and one of their first decisions was to restart the project and ask Keane to keep going with the film. It had originally been announced in April 2007 that Annie-nominated animator and story artist Dean Wellins would be co-directing the film alongside Glen Keane. On October 9, 2008, it was reported that Keane and Wellins had stepped down as directors due to other commitments, and were replaced by the team of Byron Howard and Nathan Greno, director and storyboard director, respectively, of Disney's 2008 animated feature Bolt. Keane stayed on as an executive producer and animation supervisor, while Wellins moved on to developing other short and feature films. After the film's release, Keane revealed that he had "stepped back" from the role of director because of a heart attack in 2008.
Writing and character development
When asked about the character of Rapunzel, Mandy Moore said that Rapunzel was a relatable character and called her a "Renaissance, bohemian" woman rather than a typical Disney princess: "She doesn't know she's a princess until the end of the film. She's just really sort of motivated to find out what else is out there beyond this crazy tower she's lived in for 18 years," and that "she's very independent, she can take care of herself, and she's definitely come up with really entertaining ways to keep herself busy.". Moore also stated that she herself had little influences on Rapunzel: "The character was developed way before I had anything to do with it."
According to Greno, one of the most difficult problems during the development of the film's plot was how to get Rapunzel out of the tower without immediately ending the movie, in that she had thereby escaped Mother Gothel and did not have any other specific objectives to pursue. At a meeting one day, animator John Ripa floated an idea which turned out to be the solution they had been looking for: the mysterious floating lanterns.

Production
On September 10, 2009, it was announced that actress and singer-songwriter Mandy Moore had been cast as the voice of Rapunzel, and actor Zachary Levi would provide the voice of Flynn Rider. Mandy Moore approached the project through auditioning, when she heard that a film about the story of Rapunzel was being made. Moore later expressed that she had dreamed to be a Disney princess since she was young and said that with the role of Rapunzel, she had fulfilled her "ultimate childhood dream". She described herself as a "girly fan" of Disney classics like The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin and The Lion King, and that it was an honor for her to be part of this "legacy" – the lineage of such Disney icons. Since the film was going to be a musical, it was required that all auditionees had to read several scenes and perform a song of their choice, to ensure that the voice actors could both act and sing. For this singing section, Moore chose "Help Me" by Joni Mitchell, a song that she herself had covered on her fourth studio album, Coverage (2003). Moore revealed that she had to attend several audition sessions and described the experiences as "pretty fun" but didn't put much hope in getting the part because she believed there would be much competition for this role; she just performed her best without any anxiety. When she received a callback from Disney telling that she got the part, Moore described herself as being "over the moon": "I was working in New York at the time. I was with some friends and my husband – and I screamed as soon as I found out the news."
The film reportedly cost more than $260 million to produce.
Recording
In Tangled, as with most animated films, all voice actors had to record their dialogue separately from one another to avoid bleeding into each other's tracks. Mandy Moore later recalled that during recording, she had never met Donna Murphy and only met Zachary Levi once when they recorded "I See the Light". Moore thought that this was "a good exercise in employing your imagination". When recording action scenes, the voice actors had to jog a little in place in order to make their voices sound realistic. For the songs, Moore and Levi recorded on a soundstage with a 65-piece orchestra under the supervision of composer Alan Menken. They sang live with the orchestra for several times in order to help everyone "get a vibe" and a feel for the music and the singing, then were asked to go in isolation booths to record the actual tracks. In order to aid animators in animating the characters, the filmmakers did interviews with the voice actors and filmed their facial expressions throughout the recording sessions. Disney animated films are usually animated to synchronize with recorded dialogue rather than asking the vocal talent to synchronize their delivery to animation after it is rendered. Thus, Moore felt that the recording process was challenging because at that time she had no animation to look at except for a few sketches.
Due to scheduling conflicts with other projects (Moore had to travel to different places like London or New York, and Levi could only record on weekends for five hours once every six weeks), they did not necessarily record dialogue in the same order as in the final film. "When I came in, maybe that sequence or scene had been recorded by Mandy (Moore) already, maybe it hadn't. We'd end up doing the same scene five times, depending," Levi said. After watching the finished film, Moore was disappointed because she felt that her voice sounded "shrill", while Levi thought that his performance sounded "incredibly nasally".
Animation
The film was made using computer-generated imagery (CGI), although Tangled was modeled on the traditional look of oil paintings on canvas. The Rococo paintings of French artist Jean-Honoré Fragonard, particularly The Swing, were used as references for the film's artistic style, a style described by Keane as "romantic and lush." The Swing is also used in the movie Frozen. To create the impression of a painting, non-photorealistic rendering was used.
Glen Keane wanted the film to look and feel like a traditional hand-drawn Disney film in 3D, and held a seminar called "The Best of Both Worlds", where he, with 50 Disney CGI artists and traditional artists, focused on the pros and cons of each style. Due to limitations in computer technology, especially regarding attempts to capture the complexity of a human form, many basic principles of animation used in traditionally animated movies had been absent from earlier CGI films; but technological advancements have made it easier to blend the two, combining the strengths of each style. Keane stated repeatedly he was trying to make the computer "bend its knee to the artist" instead of having the computer dictate the artistic style and look of the film. By making the computer become as "pliable as the pencil", Keane's vision of a "three dimensional drawing" seemed within reach, with the artist controlling the technology. Many of the techniques and tools that were required to give the film the quality Keane demanded did not exist when the project was started, and Walt Disney Animation Studios had to create them on their own. Keane said, "There’s no photoreal hair. I want luscious hair, and we are inventing new ways of doing that. I want to bring the warmth and intuitive feel of hand-drawn to CGI."
One of the main goals of the animators was to create movement that mimicked the soft fluidity of the hand-drawn art found in older Disney animated films. Keane credited Disney 3D animator Kyle Strawitz with helping to combine CGI with the traditional hand-drawn style. "He took the house from Snow White and built it and painted it so it looked like a flat painting that suddenly started to move, and it had dimension and kept all of the soft, round curves of the brushstrokes of watercolor. Kyle helped us get that Fragonard look of that girl on the swing... We are using subsurface scattering and global illumination and all of the latest techniques to pull off convincing human characters and rich environments."
Existing technology continued to present difficulties: in particular, animating hair turned out to be a challenge. Senior software engineer Kelly Ward spent six years writing programs to make it move the way they wanted. As late as January 2010, the directors were still not sure if the Rapunzel character's length of hair was going to work. These problems were finally solved in March: An improved version of a hair simulation program named Dynamic Wires, originally developed for Bolt, was eventually used. To make hair float believably in water, and to surmount other similar challenges, discrete differential geometry was used to produce the desired effects, freeing the animators from executing these specific tasks directly, which would have taken days instead of minutes.
Rather than focusing on realism, the 3D team used an aesthetic approach. Robert Newman, the film’s stereoscopic supervisor said that "We’re using depth more artistically than ever before, and we’re not as concerned with the literal transcription of depth between camera and projector as we are the interpretation of it." To do this, they used a new technique called multi-rigging, which is made up of multiple pairs of virtual cameras. Each pair is used individually on each separate element that adds depth to a scene, like background, foreground and characters, without adjusting for the relation with the other pairs. When sandwiched together later in production, the result was something that would be visually impossible in the real world, but which created an appealing look to the film.
As a counterpart to the appealing and cute design of Rapunzel, the directors wanted to make Flynn Rider "the most handsome, most attractive male lead Disney has ever had." They held a large "Hot Man Meeting" where they gathered about 30 women from the studio and asked them what they considered attractive in a man. They brought in hundreds of images of their favourite male actors and celebrities, which were torn and pasted back again. After much deliberation, his look was eventually narrowed down to one concept drawing.

Soundtrack (November 14, 2010)
The original score for the film was composed by Alan Menken (The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, and Aladdin), Christophe Beck, and Joel McNeely, who scored the first Revival film; with lyrics written by Glenn Slater. Menken said he attempted to blend medieval music with 1960s folk rock to create the new songs. The soundtrack features five original songs, four re-recordings and remasterings of popular Muppet songs ("The Muppet Show Theme", "Rainbow Connection", and "Mah Nà Mah Nà"), two cover versions of existing songs (Cee Lo Green's "Forget You" and Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit"), two standalone songs (Paul Simon's "Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard" and Starship's "We Built This City"), and fifteen dialogue tracks. McNeely recorded the music with an 82-piece ensemble of the Hollywood Studio Symphony and Celtic violin soloist Máiréad Nesbitt at the Sony Scoring Stage.
Our second "Fairies" soundtrack release premieres Joel McNeely's sensational orchestral tour-de-force. A song album appeared in 2010 albeit offering none of McNeely's score. New Disney/Intrada co-brand now zeroes in on McNeely's music as well as spotlighting several key songs including wondrous, important "If You Believe". McNeely works with large orchestra, chorus, Celtic violin, ethnic woodwinds, creates richly textured environment for Tinker Bell's second adventure in Pixie Hollow and California, primarily involving breakage of moonstone that generates their precious pixie dust. Highlights literally abound: haunting, major-key chorus & orchestra envelopes "Hall Of Scepters", rousing, powerful "Tink Sails Away" with surging themes coming to fore, tender Celtic overtones of "Tink Tries For More", dramatic, imposing "The Ship That Sunk", aggressive, fercious "Rat Attack" just a handful. Special attention due magnificent, fanfare-regal "Our Finest Reverly Ever" with its spectacular outbursts for brass as well as oft-requested entire "Fairy Tale Theater" sequence which melds dynamic storytelling with combination of Celtic opening, choral & orchestral development leading to fortissimo minor-key coda for entire ensemble. McNeely provides a stirring, melodically soaring and vibrant score throughout. An hour of musical riches! Joel McNeely conducts.
Several songs were written, but eventually cut from the final film; "When Will My Life Begin?" replaced an earlier version called "What More Could I Ever Need?". Menken reported that that opening number went through five or six different versions. Elsewhere, Menken reported that there was originally a love song called "You Are My Forever" that Mother Gothel sang to Rapunzel in a motherly way, but was reprised later in the film by Flynn Rider in a romantic way. This idea was apparently replaced with the two songs "Mother Knows Best" and "I See the Light".
The song "Something That I Want" performed by Grace Potter from Grace Potter and the Nocturnals is featured in the closing credits. This version features some of the lyrics that were re-written and sung by Potter herself.

Winnie the Pooh & Tinker Bell's Midsummer Rescue is a 2011 American 3D traditionally animated/computer-animated musical fantasy comedy-drama adventure film, produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures. Inspired by A. A. Milne's stories of the same name, it is the 51st animated feature in the Walt Disney Animated Classics series, along with the 13th and 24th features, Alice in Wonderland and The Fox and the Hound (as both summer anniversary films). It shares with Disney's Atlantis: The Lost Empire and Disney/Pixar's Cars 2 as Disney's summer anniversary films. The film is directed by Stephen J. Anderson (Meet the Robinsons) and Don Hall (Big Hero 6), written by A. A. Milne and Burny Mattinson (The Great Mouse Detective, Mickey's Christmas Carol), and produced by Peter Del Vecho (Treasure Planet) and Clark Spencer (Lilo & Stitch, Wreck-It Ralph w/ The Pixie Olympics Arcade). The film is part of Disney's Winnie the Pooh franchise, the fifth theatrical Winnie the Pooh film released, and Walt Disney Animation Studios' second adaptation of Winnie the Pooh stories. In the film, Tinker Bell and Alice get stolen by a greedy cartoon owner named Al and Lizzy, a little girl with a steadfast belief in the power of pixie dust and the magic land of fairies, oblivious of her father scientist, Dr. Griffiths. Two very different worlds unite for the first time and Tinker Bell develops a special bond with a curious child in need of a friend. As their fellow Looney Tunes and fairies launch a daring rescue and go around the streets of Orlando to save them, Tinker Bell takes a huge risk, putting her own safety and the future of all fairy-kind in jeopardy while Alice is tempted by the idea of immortality in a Japanese museum. During the part of the film, the aforementioned residents of the Hundred Acre Wood embark on a quest to save Christopher Robin from an imaginary culprit while Pooh deals with a hunger for honey.
Production for the film with the third installment began in September 2009 with John Lasseter announcing that they wanted to create a film that would "transcend generations." The cast from the previous film returned, consisting of Mae Whitman, Jeff Bergman, Pamela Adlon, Lucy Liu, Raven-Symoné, Bob Bergen, Kristin Chenoweth, Eric Bauza, Angela Bartys, Rob Paulsen, Jeff Bennett, Michael Jordan, Theresa Randle, and Jesse McCartney. Jim Cummings and Wayne Knight, who voiced Ray and Stan Podolak in The Princess and the Frog & Tinker Bell's Springtime Belief will voice new characters and several newcomers are introduced, consisting of Chloë Grace Moretz, Lauren Mote, Elle Fanning, Michael Sheen, Kelsey Grammer, Travis Oates, Tom Kenny, Craig Ferguson, Bud Luckey, and Kristen Anderson-Lopez. Joel McNeely and Randy Newman return to compose the film's orchestral score with Henry Jackman, Robert Lopez and his wife, Kristen Anderson-Lopez joining in. The film also features six songs by the Lopezes, two performances by Cara Dillion and Bridgit Mendler, as well as actress and musician Zooey Deschanel.
Tinker Bell's Midsummer Rescue premiered at London, the United Kingdom and Dublin, Ireland on April 15, 2011 and went into general theatrical release at the United States on July 15, 2011. Unlike the other predecessors, the film was a modest box office success, but received very positive reviews. The film is dedicated to Dan Read, who had working on Disney films including The Emperor's New Groove and Chicken Little, and died on May 25, 2010. This was also Huell Howser's (who voices the Backson in the epilogue) only film role before his death in January 6, 2013. Its Blu-ray and DVD is released on October 25, 2011. It was accompanied in theaters by a short film, The Ballad of Nessie. Unlike the other films in the series, it takes place entirely away from Pixie Hollow, Hollywood.
__________
Production
In 2009, John Lasseter, Stephen J. Anderson, and Don Hall viewed the classic Winnie the Pooh feature shorts and films to figure out how to make the title character culturally relevant. Following a trip to Ashdown Forest in Sussex, South East England to explore the location of A.A. Milne's original stories, the filmmakers enlisted Burny Mattinson, a Disney veteran who worked as the key animator on Winnie the Pooh and Tigger Too, to serve as lead storyboard artist for the film, with Anderson and Hall directing. Director Stephen Anderson is best known for his effort on Meet the Robinsons, Journey Beneath the Sea, Brother Bear, The Emperor's New Groove, and Bolt. Director Don Hall also has veteran status at Walt Disney Animation Studios, significantly contributing to The Princess and the Frog, Meet the Robinsons, Brother Bear, Home on the Range, The Emperor's New Groove, and Tarzan. Supervising animators for the film included Mark Henn (Winnie the Pooh, Christopher Robin), Andreas Deja (Tigger), Bruce W. Smith (Piglet, Kanga, Roo), Randy Haycock (Eeyore), Eric Goldberg (Rabbit and the Backson) and Dale Baer (Owl). Similar to The Princess and the Frog & Tinker Bell & Looney Tunes, the film also uses Toon Boom Animation's Harmony software.
Originally, the film was supposed to feature five stories from the A. A. Milne books, but the final version ended up drawing inspiration from three stories. Executive producer John Lasseter had also announced that Rabbit's friends and relatives would be in the film, but their scene was ultimately deleted.

Reception
Box office

The international grosses include $4.13 million in Japan, $1.33 million in Germany, $1.29 million in Poland, $1.18 million in the UK and $1.14 million in Russia.
Critical response
Winnie the Pooh & Tinker Bell's Midsummer Rescue received near-unanimous positive reviews, with some critics praising the animation, voicing, script, and the musical numbers (notably "The Backson Song" and "Everything Is Honey"). Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes reports that 90% "Certified Fresh" of 126 critics have given the film a positive review, with a rating average of 7.2 out of 10. Its consensus states "Endearingly lovely, short, nostalgic, and gently whimsical, Tinker Bell's Midsummer Rescue uses a sweetly traditional family treat, inventive storytelling, gorgeous animation, and a talented cast to deliver another rich moviegoing experience to friendship tale." Metacritic, which assigns a weighted average score out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the film received an average score of 74 based on 26 reviews. CinemaScore polls reported that the average grade moviegoers gave the film an A- on an A+ to F scale.
Rating
The film was rated G: "General Audiences-All Ages Admitted." by the Motion Picture Association of America.
This is a film which contains nothing in theme, language, nudity and sex, violence, etc. which would, in the view of the Rating Board, be offensive to parents whose younger children view the film. The G rating is not a "certificate of approval," nor does it signify a children's film. Some snippets of language may go beyond polite conversation but they are common everyday expressions. No stronger words are present in G-rated films. The violence is at a minimum. Nudity and sex scenes are not present; nor is there any drug use content.
__________
Soundtrack (July 12, 2011)
The score to Tinker Bell's Midsummer Rescue was composed and conducted by Henry Jackman (Big Hero 6, Wreck-It Ralph), Joel McNeely, who scored the first two Fairies films; and Randy Newman (who previously scored The Princess and the Frog & Tinker Bell & Looney Tunes). Hoping to find the right songwriters for their third film, the directors Anderson and Hall sent visuals to five songwriting teams. The duo instantly fell in love with the demos returned by Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez, who had previously worked with executive producer Lasseter and music executive Chris Montan on the theme park musical version of Finding Nemo. The first song which the songwriting candidates were asked to write was the one which became "Everything Is Honey", in which Pooh undergoes a wild hallucination in his desperate hunger for honey. The Lopezes' inspiration for writing their successful demo was their desperate lack of sleep at the time because of the restlessness of their then-newborn younger daughter, Annie. The Lopezes wrote seven songs for the film. Zooey Deschanel performed three songs for the film.
Tinker Bell's third installment adventure featuring Joel McNeely music gets premiere CD soundtrack release! "The majestic countryside of England meets the magical world of Pixie Hollow" is vivid description of score in booklet introduction by directors Stephen J. Anderson and Don Hall. As with two previous Tinker Bell scores, McNeely creates magical, magnificent musical portrait of Tink's world of wonder, adventure with full orchestral assist courtney finest musicians in Los Angeles. Moments of magical melody trade with powerful episodes of action. In between are rich bars of sentiment, warmth, wonder. This time Tinker Bell attends English fairy camp, befriends human child Lizzy, gets trapped in fairy house. Rescue plans are soon underway. McNeely keeps pace with every moment of action and adventure with his array of orchestral color ranging from delicate celeste, flute and shimmering strings to pulse-racing flurishes for his entire orchestra. Dazzling music! Just two of many highlights: Rousing action of "We're Going To Build A Boat", gentle Vaughn Williams-style modality "Tink And Lizzy Meet". Deserving extra spotlight is masterful "Tink Wants To Leave/Lauching The Boat", which melds vernacular of above two highlights in one great sequence. In addition to McNeely score, CD also offers key songs "Summer's Just Begun", "How To Believe", "Come Flying With Me".

Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret
Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret is a 2013 American 3D live action/computer-animated musical fantasy comedy-drama adventure film, and produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures. Inspired by Hans Christian Anderson's fairy tale The Snow Queen, it is the 53rd animated feature in the Walt Disney Animated Classics series, sharing with the 14th feature, Peter Pan. It is also the second film based on the fairy tale; the first being The Little Mermaid. It shares with Disney's The Sword in the Stone, Robin Hood, and Brother Bear as Disney's holiday anniversary films. Directed by Chris Buck (Surf's Up, Tarzan) and Jennifer Lee (Wreck-It Ralph w/ The Pixie Olympics Arcade), produced by Peter Del Vecho (Treasure Planet), and screenplay written by Lee, the film tells the story of Peter Pan, Tinker Bell, Kermit the Frog and the entire Muppet and Pixie Hollow gang who embark on a world tour at the world's fair of World Global Pavilion Incorporated set in Oslo, Norway, selling grand theaters in some of the European locations that'll determine the world's fastest fairy. Along the way, Peter becomes sidetracked with international espionage while the Muppets find themselves unwittingly involved in an international crime caper, led by Constantine, the World's Most Dangerous Frog and Kermit's dead ringer. Tink ventures into the forbidden world of the Winter Woods and discovers her sister, a snow fairy named Periwinkle. Fearless princess Anna, who sets off on an epic journey to find her estranged sister Elsa the Snow Queen, whose icy powers have inadvertently trapped the kingdom in eternal winter. The Ice Age gang set out to escape the end-of-the-world deluge.
Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret underwent several story treatments for years before being commissioned in 2011, with a screenplay written by Jennifer Lee, and both Chris Buck and Lee serving as directors. The film will reprise their respective roles with Blayne Weaver, Chloë Grace Moretz, Mae Whitman, Lucy Liu, Raven-Symoné, Megan Hilty, Pamela Adlon, Angela Bartys, Rob Paulsen, Jeff Bennett, Jane Horrocks, Jesse McCartney, Grey DeLisle, and Anjelica Huston, along with the Muppet performers Steve Whitmire, Eric Jacobson, Dave Goelz, Bill Barretta, David Rudman, Matt Vogel, and Peter Linz. It will feature new ensemble cast including Kristen Bell, Lucy Hale, Idina Menzel, Ray Romano, John Leguizamo, Denis Leary, Jonathan Groff, Queen Latifah, Ricky Gervais, Michael Caine, Emily Mortimer, Kelly Macdonald, Josh Gad, Ty Burrell, Santino Fontana, Tina Fey, Eddie Izzard, Timothy Dalton, Thomas Kretschmann, Matt Lanter, Jason Issacs, Debby Ryan, Seann William Scott, Josh Peck, Joe Mantegna, Peter Jacobson, Alan Tudyk, Will Arnett, Jay Leno, Ciarán Hinds, and Bruce Campbell. Joel McNeely and Christophe Beck return to compose the sequel, while John Powell and Michael Giacchino were hired to help them write the film's orchestral score, while Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn's Bret McKenzie and the husband-and-wife songwriting team of Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez, both of whom had previously worked with Disney Animation on Winnie the Pooh & Tinker Bell's Midsummer Rescue (2011) and Gigantic (2018); and Disney Parks on Finding Nemo: The Musical (2007), penned the songs.
Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret premiered at El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood, California, on November 19, 2013. The film went into general theatrical release in the United States on November 27, 2013. The film was a massive commercial success and was met with strongly positive reviews from critics and audiences, with some film critics considering Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret to be the best Disney animated musical since the studio's renaissance era. The film was also accumulated nearly $1.3 billion in worldwide box office revenue (surpassing Toy Story 3), $400 million of which was earned in the United States and Canada. It ranks as the highest-grossing animated film of all time, the fifth highest-grossing film of all time, and the highest-grossing film of 2013. The film was nominated for two Academy Awards, which won two, including Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song ("Let It Go"). The film was nominated for Golden Globe Award for Best Animated Feature Film, the BAFTA Award for Best Animated Film, five Annie Awards (including Best Animated Feature), and two Critics' Choice Awards for Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song ("Let It Go").
The film was dedicated to Jerry Nelson, who died in August 23, 2012 due to complications of his illnesses and Jane Henson, who died in April 2, 2013 due to cancer. It marks the first Muppet and Tinker Bell feature film to be presented in the 2.39:1 aspect ratio. Sesame Street and Fraggle Rock characters made cameos during the climax of the film. An animated short sequel, Frozen Fever, premiered on March 13, 2015, in the screening with Disney's Cinderella, and on April 3, 2015, with Never Muppetational Pirate during the film's epilogue. On March 12, 2015, a feature-length sequel was announced, with Buck and Lee returning as directors and Peter Del Vecho returning as producer. A release date has not been disclosed. Its running time is 481 minutes.

Production
Development
Origins
Walt Disney Productions first began exploring a possible live action/animation biography film of author and poet Hans Christian Andersen sometime in late 1937 before the December premiere of its film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, the first feature-length hand-drawn animated film ever made. In March 1940, Walt Disney suggested a co-production to film producer Samuel Goldwyn, where Goldwyn's studio would shoot the live-action sequences of Andersen's life and Disney's studio would animate Andersen's fairy tales. The animated sequences would be based on some of Andersen's best known works, such as The Little Mermaid, The Little Match Girl, The Steadfast Tin Soldier, The Snow Queen, Thumbelina, The Ugly Duckling, The Red Shoes, and The Emperor's New Clothes. However, the studio encountered difficulty with The Snow Queen, as it could not find a way to adapt and relate the Snow Queen character to modern audiences. Even as far back as the 1930s and 1940s, it was clear that the source material contained great cinematic possibilities, but the Snow Queen character proved to be too problematic. After the United States entered World War II, the studio began to focus on making wartime propaganda, which caused development on the Disney–Goldwyn project to grind to a halt in 1942. Goldwyn went on to produce his own live-action film version in 1952, entitled Hans Christian Andersen, with Danny Kaye as Andersen, Charles Vidor directing, Moss Hart writing, and Frank Loesser penning the songs. All of Andersen's fairy tales were, instead, told in song and ballet in live-action, like the rest of the film. It went on to receive six Academy Award nominations the following year. Back at Disney, The Snow Queen, along with other Andersen fairy tales (including The Little Mermaid), were shelved.
Later efforts
In the late 1990s, Walt Disney Feature Animation started developing a new adaptation of The Snow Queen after the tremendous success of their recent films during the Disney Renaissance era (1989 - 1999), but the project was scrapped completely in late 2002, when Glen Keane reportedly quit the project and went on to work on another project which became Tangled & Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn (2010). Even before then, Harvey Fierstein pitched his version of the story to Disney's executives, but was turned down. Paul and Gaëtan Brizzi, Dick Zondag and Dave Goetz reportedly all tried their hand at it, but failed. After a number of unsuccessful attempts from 2000 to 2002, Disney shelved the project again. During one of those attempts, Michael Eisner, then-chairman and chief executive officer of The Walt Disney Company, offered his support to the project and suggested doing it with Oscar-winning director John Lasseter at Pixar Animation Studios after the then-expected renewal of Pixar's contract with Disney. But negotiations between Pixar and Disney collapsed in January 2004 and that contract was never renewed. Instead, Eisner's successor Bob Iger negotiated Disney's purchase of Pixar in January 2006 for $7.4 billion, and Lasseter was promoted to chief creative officer of both Pixar and Disney Animation.
The next attempt started in 2008, when Lasseter was able to convince Chris Buck (who co-directed the 1999 film Tarzan for the studio) to return to Walt Disney Feature Animation from Sony Pictures Animation (where he had recently co-directed the Oscar-nominated 2007 film Surf's Up); that September, Buck pitched several ideas to Lasseter, one of which was The Snow Queen. Buck later revealed that his initial inspiration for The Snow Queen was not the Andersen fairy tale itself, but that he wanted "to do something different on the definition of true love." "Disney had already done the 'kissed by a prince' thing, so I thought it was time for something new," he recalled. It turned out Lasseter had been interested in The Snow Queen for a long time; back when Pixar was working with Disney on Toy Story in the 1990s, he saw and was "blown away" by some of the pre-production art from Disney's prior attempts. Development began under the title Anna and the Snow Queen, which was planned to be traditionally animated. According to Josh Gad, he first became involved with the film at that early stage, when the plot was still relatively close to the original Andersen fairy tale and Megan Mullally was going to play Elsa. By early 2010, the project entered development hell once again, when the studio again failed to find a way to make the story and the Snow Queen character work.
Revitalization
On December 22, 2011, following the success of Tangled & Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn, Disney announced a new title for the film, Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret, and a release date of November 27, 2013. A month later, it was confirmed that the film would be a computer-animated feature in stereoscopic 3D, instead of the originally intended hand-drawn animation. Anderson-Lopez and Lopez joined the project and started writing songs for Frozen in January 2012. On March 5, 2012, it was announced that Buck would be directing, with Lasseter and Peter Del Vecho producing.
After Disney decided to advance The Snow Queen into development again, one of the main challenges Buck and Del Vecho faced was the character of the Snow Queen, who was then a villain in their drafts. The studio has a tradition of screening animated films in development every twelve weeks, then holding lengthy "notes sessions" in which its directors and screenwriters from different projects provide extensive "notes" on each other's work.
Buck and Del Vecho presented their storyboards to Lasseter, and the entire production team adjourned to a conference to hear his thoughts on the project. Art director Michael Giaimo later acknowledged Lasseter as the "game changer" of the film: "I remember John saying that the latest version of The Snow Queen story that Chris Buck and his team had come up with was fun, very light-hearted. But the characters didn't resonate. They aren't multi-faceted. Which is why John felt that audiences wouldn't really be able to connect with them."
The production team then addressed the film's problems, drafting several variations on The Snow Queen story until the characters and story felt relevant. At that stage, the first major breakthrough was the decision to rewrite the film's protagonist, Anna (who was based on the Gerda character from The Snow Queen), as the younger sibling of Elsa, thereby effectively establishing a family dynamic between the characters. This was unusual in that relationships between sisters are rarely used as a major plot element in American animated films, with the notable exception of Disney's Lilo & Stitch (2002). To fully explore the unique dynamics of such relationships, Disney Animation convened a "Sister Summit," at which women from all over the studio who grew up with sisters were asked to discuss their relationships with their sisters.
In January 2012, after the critical and commercial successes of Tinker Bell & Looney Tunes, Muppets & Fairies Ever After and Tinker Bell's Summer Rescue; Walt Disney Animation Studios negotiated a deal with Buck to direct and write a fifty-third feature and it will share with Frozen a year later. It was confirmed that the film would be a computer-animated feature in stereoscopic 3D, animation, and live action, similar to the previous films. Taking on the form of a caper, the film was inspired by both The Great Muppet Caper and The Muppets Take Manhattan as well as the Disney animated classics and the Disney Renaissance films.
Writing
In March 2012, Jennifer Lee, one of the screenwriters of Wreck-It Ralph, was brought in as the film's screenwriter by Del Vecho. Lee later explained that as Wreck-It Ralph was wrapping up, she was giving notes on other projects, and "we kind of really connected with what we were thinking."
According to Lee, several core concepts were already in place from Buck and Del Vecho's early work, such as the film's "frozen heart" hook: "That was a concept and the phrase ... an act of true love will thaw a frozen heart." They already knew the ending involved true love in the sense of the emotional bond between siblings, not romance, in that "Anna was going to save Elsa. We didn't know how or why." Lee said Edwin Catmull, president of Disney Animation, told her early on about the film's ending: "First and foremost, no matter what you have to do to the story, do it. But you have to earn that ending. If you do, it will be great. If you don't, it will suck."
Before Lee was brought on board, another screenwriter had made a first pass at a script, and Anderson-Lopez and Lopez tried to write songs for that script but none worked and all were cut. Then "the whole script imploded," which gave the songwriters the opportunity "to put a lot of their DNA" into the new script that Lee was writing. The production team "essentially started over and ... had 17 months," which resulted in a very "intense schedule" and implied "a lot of choices had to be made fast."
The earlier versions differed sharply from the final version. In the original script the songwriters first saw, Elsa was evil from the start; she kidnapped Anna from her own wedding to intentionally freeze her heart, then later descended upon the town with an army of snowmen with the objective of recapturing Anna to freeze her heart properly. By the time Lee came in, the first act included Elsa deliberately striking Anna in the heart with her freezing powers; then "the whole second act was about Anna trying to get to Hans and to kiss him and then Elsa trying to stop her." Buck revealed that the original plot attempted to make Anna sympathetic by focusing on her frustration as being perceived as the "spare" in relation to the "heir," Elsa. The original plot also had different pacing, in that it was "much more of an action adventure" than a musical or a comedy.
One major breakthrough was the composition of the song "Let It Go" by songwriters Lopez and Anderson-Lopez, which forced the production team to reconceptualize and rewrite Elsa as a far more complex, vulnerable, and sympathetic character. In The Daily Telegraph's words, instead of the villain envisioned by the producers, the songwriters saw Elsa as "a scared girl struggling to control and come to terms with her gift." Lee recalled: "Bobby and Kristen said they were walking in Prospect Park and they just started talking about what would it feel like to be Elsa. Forget villain. Just what it would feel like. And this concept of letting out who she is, that she's kept to herself for so long, and she's alone and free, but then the sadness of the fact that the last moment is she's alone. It’s not a perfect thing, but it's powerful." Del Vecho explained that "Let It Go" changed Elsa into a person "ruled by fear and Anna was ruled by her own love of other people and her own drive," which in turn caused Lee to "rewrite the first act and then that rippled through the entire movie. So that was when we really found the movie and who these characters were."
Another major breakthrough was developing the plot twist that Prince Hans would be revealed as the film's true villain only near the end. Hans was not even in the earliest drafts, then at first was not a villain, and after becoming one, was revealed to be evil much earlier in the plot. Del Vecho said, "We realized what was most important was if we were going to make the ending so surprising, you had to believe at one point that Hans was the answer ... when he's not the answer, it's Kristoff ... If you can get the audience to leap ahead and think they have figured it out, you can surprise them by turning it the other way." Lee acknowledged that Hans was written as "sociopathic" and "twisted" throughout the final version. For example, Hans mirrors the behavior of the other characters: "He mirrors Anna and he's goofy with her ... The Duke of Weselton is a jerk, so he's a jerk back. And with Elsa he's a hero." It was difficult to lay the foundation for Anna's belated turn to Kristoff without also making Hans' betrayal of Anna too predictable, in that the audience had to "feel ... her feeling something but not quite understanding it ... Because the minute it is understood, it deflated." At one point, Anna openly flirted with Kristoff upon first meeting him, but that was changed after Walt Disney Studios chairman Alan Horn pointed out that it would confuse and annoy viewers since Anna was already engaged to Hans.
Lee had to work through the issue of how to write Anna's personality, in that some of her colleagues felt Anna should be more dysfunctional and co-dependent, like Vanellope von Schweetz in Wreck-It Ralph. Lee disagreed with that position, but it took her almost a year to figure out how to convincingly articulate "this is what Anna's journey is. No more than that. No less than that." In the end, Lee successfully argued Anna's journey should be presented as a simple coming-of-age story, "where she goes from having a naive view of life and love – because she's lonely – to the most sophisticated and mature view of love, where she's capable of the ultimate love, which is sacrifice." Lee also had to let go of some ideas that she liked, such as a scene portraying Anna and Elsa's relationship as teenagers, which did not work because they needed to maintain the separation between Anna and Elsa.
To construct Anna and Elsa's relationship as sisters, Lee found inspiration in her own relationship with her older sister. Lee said her older sister was "a big inspiration for Elsa," called her "my Elsa" in an op-ed in the Los Angeles Times, and walked the red carpet with her at the 86th Academy Awards. Lee explained, "having to ... lose each other and then rediscover each other as adults, that was a big part of my life."
The production team also turned Olaf from Elsa's obnoxious sidekick into Anna's comically innocent sidekick. Lee's initial response to the original "mean" version of Olaf had been, "Kill the f-ing snowman," and she found Olaf by far "the hardest character to deal with."
The problem of how exactly Anna would save Elsa at the film's climax was solved by story artist John Ripa. At the story meeting where Ripa pitched his take on the story, the response was silence until Lasseter said, "I've never seen anything like that before," which was followed by a standing ovation.
Along the way, the production team went through drafts where the first act included far more detail than what ended up in the final version, such as a troll with a Brooklyn accent who would have explained the backstory behind Elsa's magical powers, and a regent for whom Lee was hoping to cast comedian Louis C.K. After all those details were thoroughly "over-analyzed", they were excised because they amounted to a "much more complex story than really we felt like we could fit in this 90-minute film." As Del Vecho put it, "the more we tried to explain things at the beginning, the more complicated it got."
In June 2012, the film was originally commissioned under the title Pixie Fairies & Muppets: The Global Winter Woods.
In September 20, 2012, the title of the film was changed from Pixie Fairies & Muppets: The Global Winter Woods to Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret.
Following Lee's extensive involvement in Frozen's development process and her close work with director Buck and songwriters Lopez and Anderson-Lopez, studio heads Lasseter and Catmull promoted her to director of the film alongside Buck in August 2012. Her promotion was officially announced on November 29, 2012, making Lee the first woman to direct a full-length animated motion picture produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios. She primarily worked on story while Buck focused on animation. Lee later stated that she was "really moved by a lot of what Chris had done" and that they "shared a vision" of the story, having "very similar sensibilities".
By November 2012, the production team thought they had finally "cracked" the puzzle of how to make the film's story work, but according to Del Vecho, in late February 2013, it was realized that the film still "wasn't working", which necessitated even more rewriting of scenes and songs from February through June 2013. He explained, "we rewrote songs, we took out characters and changed everything, and suddenly the movie gelled. But that was close. In hindsight, piece of cake, but during, it was a big struggle." Looking back, Anderson-Lopez joked she and Lopez thought at the time they could end up working as "birthday party clowns" if the final product "pulled ... down" their careers and recalled that "we were really writing up until the last minute." In June (five months before the already-announced release date), the songwriters finally got the film working when they composed the song "For the First Time in Forever", which, in Lopez's words, "became the linchpin of the whole movie."
That month, Disney conducted test screenings of the half-completed film with two audiences (one made up of families and the other made up of adults) in Phoenix, Arizona, at which Lasseter and Catmull were personally present. Lee recalled that it was the moment when they realized they "had something, because the reaction was huge." Catmull, who had instructed Lee at the outset to "earn that ending," told her afterwards, "you did it".
Casting
Actress Kristen Bell (Veronica Mars) was cast as the voice of Anna on March 5, 2012. Lee admitted that Bell's casting selection was influenced after the filmmakers listened to a series of vocal tracks Bell had recorded when she was young, where the actress performed several songs from The Little Mermaid, including "Part of Your World". Bell completed her recording sessions while she was pregnant, and subsequently re-recorded some of her character's lines after her pregnancy, as her voice had deepened. Bell was called in to re-record dialogue for the film "probably 20 times," which is normal for lead roles in Disney animated films whose scripts are still evolving. As for her approach to the role of Anna, Bell enthused that she had "dreamed of being in a Disney animated film" since she was four years old, saying, "I always loved Disney animation, but there was something about the females that was unattainable to me. Their posture was too good and they were too well-spoken, and I feel like I really made this girl much more relatable and weirder and scrappier and more excitable and awkward. I'm really proud of that."
Idina Menzel (Wicked), a Broadway veteran, was cast as Elsa. Menzel had formerly auditioned for Tangled & Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn, but did not get the part. However, Tangled's casting director, Jamie Sparer Roberts, preserved a recording of Menzel's performance on her iPhone, and on the basis of that, asked her to audition along with Bell for Frozen. Before they were officially cast, Menzel and Bell deeply impressed the directors and producers at an early table read; after reading the entire script out loud, they sang "Wind Beneath My Wings" together as a duet, since no music had been composed yet. Bell had suggested that idea when she visited Menzel at her California home to prepare together for the table read. The songwriters were also present for the table read; Anderson-Lopez said "Lasseter was in heaven" upon hearing Menzel and Bell sing in harmony, and from that moment forward, he insisted, "Kristen Bell and Idina Menzel have to be in the movie!" Lee said, "They sung it like sisters and what you mean to me, and there wasn't a dry eye in the house after they sang." Between December 2012 and June 2013, Mae Whitman, Steve Whitmire, Lucy Liu, Eric Jacobson, Raven-Symoné, Dave Goelz, Megan Hilty (replacement for Kristin Chenoweth), Bill Barretta, Pamela Adlon, David Rudman, Angela Bartys, Matt Vogel, Peter Linz, Rob Paulsen, Jeff Bennett, Jane Horrocks, Jesse McCartney, and Anjelica Huston will reprise their roles while the casting of additional roles was announced, including Lucy Hale (American Idol) as Periwinkle the snow fairy and Tinker Bell's fraternal twin sister, Ray Romano as Manny the woolly mammoth, John Leguizamo as Sid tha ground sloth, Denis Leary as Diego the saber-toothed tiger, Queen Latifah as Ellie the female woolly mammoth, Jonathan Groff (Glee) as Kristoff the ice harvester and Anna's love interest, Ricky Gervais (Night at the Museum) as Dominic/Number Two, Josh Gad (The Book of Mormon, Ice Age: Continental Drift) as Olaf the enchanted snowman, Timothy Dalton (James Bond) as Lord Milori of Winter, Santino Fontana (Broadway's Cinderella) as Prince Hans of the Southern Isles, Tina Fey (30 Rock) as Gulag prison guard Nadya, Matt Lanter (Star Wars: The Clone Wars) as Sled the winter sparrowman, Ty Burrell (Modern Family) as Interpol agent Jean Pierre Napoleon, Alan Tudyk (Ice Age, Wreck-It Ralph) as the Duke of Weselton, and Chris Williams (director of Bolt) as Oaken of Wandering Oaken's Trading Post & Sauna. Bret McKenzie returns as Kristen Anderson-Lopez, and Robert Lopez joined the project and started writing songs for the sequel. Joel McNeely and Christoph Beck return to compose the sequel, while John Powell (Bolt, How to Train Your Dragon) and Michael Giacchino (Ratatouille, Up, The Incredibles) were hired to help them compose the film.
A 48-second sneak peek clip (starring Tinker Bell and her sister, Periwinkle) was released on March 19, 2013 and the second teaser trailer (starring Olaf the snowman and Sven the reindeer) for the movie was released on June 19, 2013 in movie theaters with Monsters University. In the same day, Blayne Weaver as Peter Pan, Chloë Grace Moretz (who previously voiced Alice in Tinker Bell's Midsummer Rescue) as Wendy Darling, Michael Caine (The Dark Knight trilogy, The Muppet Christmas Carol) as Finn McMissile the British secret agent, Emily Mortimer (Hugo) as Holley Shiftwell the spy-in-training, Thomas Kretschmann (King Kong, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Avengers: Age of Ultron) as Professor Z the German weapon scientist, and Joe Mantegna (The Simpsons) and Peter Jacobson (House) as his goons Grem and Acer will join the cast for the film.
In August 9, 2013, more cast were announced including Kelly Macdonald (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2, Nanny McPhee, Brave) as Irish feminine fairy Fionnoula O'Callaghan (who is Wendy's rival), Jeff Bennett (who also voiced Clank) as Dewey the Keeper of all knowledge, Matt Vogel (who voiced the other Muppet characters) as Constantine/Number One, the world's most dangerous frog, Eddie Izzard (The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian) as Miles Axlerod, Seann William Scott & Josh Peck as Ellie's two opossum brothers, Crash & Eddie, Bruce Campbell (Spider-Man trilogy, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs) as American agent Rod Redline, Debby Ryan (Wizards of Waverly Place) and Grey DeLisle (who previously voiced Lyria and Viola) as Peri's close friends, Spike and Gliss, Jay Leno (The Jay Leno Show) as Fast Tony the armadillo, Will Arnett (The LEGO Movie) as the Lone Gunslinger Vulture, and Jemaine Clement (Rio, Despicable Me) as the Prison King.
An official trailer was released on September 26, 2013; showing with Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2; and a fourth and final trailer, which included scenes and songs from the film, was released on October 22, 2013.
Animation
Similar to Tangled & Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn, Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret employed a unique artistic style by blending together features of both computer-generated imagery (CGI) and traditional hand-drawn animation. From the beginning, Buck knew Giaimo was the best candidate to develop the style he had in mind – which would draw from the best Disney hand-drawn classics of the 1950s, the Disney Little Golden Books, and mid-century modern design – and persuaded him to come back to Disney to serve as the art director for Frozen. Buck, Lasseter, and Giaimo were all old friends who had first met at the California Institute of the Arts, and Giaimo had previously served as the art director for Disney's Pocahontas (1995), which Buck had worked on as a supervising animator.
To create the look of Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret, Giaimo began pre-production research by reading extensively about the entire region of Scandinavia and visiting the Danish-themed city of Solvang near Los Angeles, but eventually zeroed in on Norway in particular because "80 percent" of the visuals that appealed to him were from Norway. Disney eventually sponsored three research field trips. Animators and special effects specialists were dispatched to Jackson Hole, Wyoming, to experience walking, running, and falling in deep snow in a variety of types of attire, including long skirts (which both female and male personnel tried on); while lighting and arts teams visited an Ice Hotel in Quebec City, Quebec to study how light reflects and refracts on snow and ice. Finally, Giaimo and several artists traveled to Norway to draw inspiration from its mountains, fjords, architecture, and culture. "We had a very short time schedule for this film, so our main focus was really to get the story right but we knew that John Lasseter is keen on truth in the material and creating a believable world, and again that doesn't mean it's a realistic world – but a believable one. It was important to see the scope and scale of Norway, and important for our animators to know what it's like," Del Vecho said. "There is a real feeling of Lawrence of Arabia scope and scale to this," he finished.
During 2012, while Giaimo and the animators and artists conducted preparatory research and developed the film's overall look, the production team was still struggling to develop a compelling script, as explained above. That problem was not adequately solved until November 2012, and the script would later require even more significant revisions after that point. As a result, the single "most daunting" challenge facing the animation team was a short schedule of less than 12 months to turn Lee's still-evolving shooting script into an actual film. Other films like Pixar's Toy Story 2 had been successfully completed on even shorter schedules, but a short schedule necessarily meant "late nights, overtime, and stress." Lee estimated the total size of the entire team on Frozen to be around 600 to 650 people, "including around 70 lighting people, 70-plus animators," and 15 to 20 storyboard artists.
Del Vecho explained how the film's animation team was organized: "On this movie we do have character leads, supervising animators on specific characters. The animators themselves may work on multiple characters but it's always under one lead. I think it was different on Tangled & Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn, for example, but we chose to do it this way as we wanted one person to fully understand and develop their own character and then be able to impart that to the crew. Hyrum Osmond, the animator on Olaf, is quiet but he has a funny, wacky personality so we knew he'd bring a lot of comedy to it; Anna's animator, Becky Bresee, it's her first time leading a character and we wanted her to lead Anna." Acting coach Warner Loughlin was brought in to help the film's animators understand the characters they were creating. In order to get the general feeling of each scene, some animators did their own acting. "I actually film myself acting the scene out, which I find very helpful," said animation supervisor Rebecca Wilson Bresee. This helped her discover elements that made the scene feel real and believable. Elsa's supervising animator was Wayne Unten, who asked for that role because he was fascinated by the complexity of the character. Unten carefully developed Elsa's facial expressions in order to bring out her fear as contrasted against Anna's fearlessness. He also studied videos from Menzel's recording sessions and animated Elsa's breathing to match Menzel's breathing. Head of Animation, Lino DiSalvo, said, "The goal for the film was to animate the most believable CG characters you've ever seen."
Regarding the look and nature of the film's cinematography, Giaimo was greatly influenced by Jack Cardiff's (1914-2009) work in Black Narcissus. According to him, it lent a hyper-reality to the film: "Because this is a movie with such scale and we have the Norwegian fjords to draw from, I really wanted to explore the depth. From a design perspective, since I was stressing the horizontal and vertical aspects, and what the fjords provide, it was perfect. We encased the sibling story in scale." Ted D. McCord's (1900-1976) work in The Sound of Music was another major influence for Giaimo. It was also Giaimo's idea that Frozen should be filmed in the CinemaScope aspect ratio, which was approved by Lasseter. Giaimo also wanted to ensure that Norway's fjords, architecture and rosemaling folk art, were critical factors in designing the environment of Arendelle. Giaimo, whose background is in traditional animation, said that the art design environment represents a unity of character and environment and that he originally wanted to incorporate saturated colors, which is typically ill-advised in computer animation. For further authenticity, a live reindeer named Sage was brought into the studio for animators to study its movements and mannerisms for the character Sven.
Another important issue Giaimo insisted on addressing was costumes, in that he "knew from the start" it would be a "costume film." To realize that vision, he brought in character designer Jean Gillmore to act as a dedicated "costume designer". While traditional animation simply integrates costume design with character design and treats clothing as merely part of the characters, computer-generated animation regards costume as almost a separate entity with its own properties and behaviors – and Frozen required a level of as-yet untried detail, down to minutiae like fabrics, buttons, trim, and stitching. Gillmore explained that her "general approach was to meld the historic silhouettes of 1840 Western Europe (give or take), with the shapes and garment relationships and details of folk costume in early Norway, circa 19th century." This meant using primarily wool fabric with accents of velvet, linen, and silk. During production, Giaimo and Gillmore "ran around" supplying various departments with real-world samples to use as references; they were able to draw upon both the studio's own in-house library of fabric samples and the resources of Walt Disney Parks and Resorts' costume division in Fullerton, California. The film's "look development artists" (the Disney job title for texture artists) created the digitally painted simulation of the appearance of surfaces, while other departments dealt with movement, rigging and weight, thickness and lighting of textile animation.
During production, the film's English title was changed from The Snow Queen to Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret, a decision that drew comparisons to another Disney film, Tangled & Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn. Peter Del Vecho explained that "the title Frozen came up independently of the title Tangled. It's because, to us, it represents the movie. Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret plays on the level of ice and snow but also the frozen relationship, the frozen heart that has to be thawed. We don't think of comparisons between Tangled and Frozen, though." He also mentioned that the film will still retain its original title, The Snow Queen, in some countries: "because that just resonated stronger in some countries than Frozen. Maybe there's a richness to The Snow Queen in the country's heritage and they just wanted to emphasize that."
Technology development
The studio also developed several new tools to generate realistic and believable shots, particularly the heavy and deep snow and its interactions with the characters. Disney wanted an "all-encompassing" and organic tool to provide snow effects but not require switching between different methods. As noted above, several Disney artists and special effects personnel traveled to Wyoming to experience walking through deep snow. Dr. Kenneth Libbrecht, a professor from the California Institute of Technology, was invited to give lectures to the effects group on how snow and ice form, and why snowflakes are unique. Using this knowledge, the effects group created a snowflake generator that allowed them to randomly create 2,000 unique snowflake shapes for the film.
Another challenge that the studio had to face was to deliver shots of heavy and deep snow that both interacted believably with characters and had a realistic sticky quality. According to principal software engineer Andrew Selle, "Snow's not really a fluid. It’s not really a solid. It breaks apart. It can be compressed into snowballs. All of these different effects are very difficult to capture simultaneously." In order to achieve this, software engineers used advanced mathematics (the material point method) and physics, with assistance from mathematics researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles to create a snow simulator software application called Matterhorn. The tool was capable of depicting realistic snow in a virtual environment and was used in at least 43 scenes in the film, including several key sequences. Software engineer Alexey Stomakhin referred to snow as "an important character in the film," therefore it attracted special attention from the filmmakers. "When you stretch it, snow will break into chunks. Since snow doesn't have any connections, it doesn't have a mesh, it can break very easily. So that was an important property we took advantage of," explained Selle. "There you see Kristoff walking through and see his footprints breaking the snow into little pieces and chunk up and you see Anna being pulled out and the snow having packed together and broken into pieces. It's very organic how that happens. You don't see that they're pieces already – you see the snow as one thing and then breaking up." The tool also proved to be particularly useful in scenes involving characters walking through deep snow, as it ensured that the snow reacted naturally to each step.
Other tools designed to help artists complete complicated effects included Spaces, which allowed Olaf's deconstructible parts to be moved around and rebuilt, Flourish, which allowed extra movement such as leaves and twigs to be art-directed; Snow Batcher, which helped preview the final look of the snow, especially when characters were interacting with an area of snow by walking through a volume, and Tonic, which enabled artists to sculpt their characters' hair as procedural volumes. Tonic also aided in animating fur and hair elements such as Elsa's hair, which contains 420,000 computer-generated strands, while the average number for a real human being is only 100,000. The number of character rigs in Frozen is 312 and the number of simulated costumes also reached 245 cloth rigs, which were far beyond all other Disney films to date. Fifty effects artists and lighting artists worked together on the technology to create "one single shot" in which Elsa builds her ice palace. Its complexity required 30 hours to render each frame, with 4,000 computers rendering one frame at a time.
Besides 3D effects, the filmmakers also used 2D artwork and drawings for specific elements and sequences in the film, including Elsa's magic and snow sculptures, as well as freezing fountains and floors. The effects group created a "capture stage" where the entire world of Frozen gets displayed on monitors, which can be "filmed" on special cameras to operate a three-dimensional scene. "We can take this virtual set that's mimicking all of my actions and put it into any one of our scenes in the film," said technology manager Evan Goldberg.
Scandinavian and Sámi inspiration
The setting was principally based on Norway, and the cultural influences in the film come from Scandinavian culture. Several landmarks in Norway appear in the film, including the Akershus Fortress in Oslo, the Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim, and Bryggen in Bergen. Numerous other typical cultural Scandinavian elements are also included in the film, such as stave churches, trolls, Viking ships, a hot spring, Fjord horses, clothes, and food such as lutefisk. A maypole is also present in the film, as well as the brief appearance of runes in a book that Anna and Elsa's father opens to figure out where the trolls live. A scene where two men argue over whether to stack firewood bark up or bark down is a reference to the perennial Norwegian debate over how to stack firewood properly. The film also contains several elements specifically drawn from Sámi culture, such as the usage of reindeer for transportation and the equipment used to control these, clothing styles (the outfits of the ice cutters), and parts of the musical score. Decorations, such as those on the castle pillars and Kristoff's sled, are also in styles inspired by Sámi duodji decorations. During their field work in Norway, Disney's team, for inspiration, visited Rørosrein, a Sámi family-owned company in the village Plassje that produces reindeer meat and arranges tourist events. Arendelle was inspired by Nærøyfjord, a branch of Norway's longest fjord Sognefjorden, which has been listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site; while a castle in Oslo with beautiful hand-painted patterns on all four walls served as the inspiration for the kingdom's royal castle interior.
The filmmakers' trip to Norway provided essential knowledge for the animators to come up with the design aesthetic for the film in terms of color, light, and atmosphere. According to Giaimo, there were three important factors that they had acquired from the Norway research trip: the fjords, which are the massive vertical rock formations, and serve as the setting for the secluded kingdom of Arendelle; the medieval stave churches, whose rustic triangular rooflines and shingles inspired the castle compound; and the rosemaling folk art, whose distinctive paneling and grid patterns informed the architecture, decor, and costumes.

Soundtrack (November 25, 2013)
The songs for Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret were written and composed by Bret McKenzie and the husband-and-wife songwriting team of Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez, both of whom had previously worked with Walt Disney Animation Studios on Winnie the Pooh & Tinker Bell's Midsummer Rescue (2011) and Gigantic (2018); with Joel McNeely, who scored the three Disney Revival-themed films; Christophe Beck (Muppets & Fairies Ever After), John Powell (Bolt), and Michael Giacchino (Inside Out, Up, The Incredibles, Ratatouille) composing its score. It was revealed on September 13, 2013, that Sámi musician Fjode Fjellheim's Vuelie would be the film's opening song (right before the Muppets' We're Doing a Sequel), as it contains elements of the traditional Sámi singing style joik. The music producers recruited a Norwegian linguist to assist with the lyrics for a Old Norse song written during Elsa's coronation, and also traveled to Trondheim, Norway to record the Norwegian all-female girl choir, Cantus, for a piece inspired by traditional Sámi music.
For the orchestral film score, composer Christophe Beck gave homage to the Norway- and Sápmi-inspired setting by employing regional instruments, such as the bukkehorn, and traditional vocal techniques, such as kulning. Recording took place at Abbey Road Studios in London with a 120 piece orchestra, a 100-voice choir, including native Norwegian Christine Hals, and a wide array of ethnic instruments, including Celtic harp, Uilleann pipes, penny whistle, and violin soloist Máiréad Nesbitt. Beck worked with Lopez and Anderson-Lopez on incorporating their songs into arrangements in the score. The trio's goal "was to create a cohesive musical journey from beginning to end."
The info for the Secret of the Wings soundtrack, released by Intrada Records, will be coming soon.

Reception
Box office
Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret earned $400.7 million in North America, and an estimated $873.5 million in other countries, for a worldwide total of $1.274 billion. It is the fifth highest-grossing film, the highest-grossing animated film, the highest-grossing 2013 film, the highest-grossing Walt Disney Pictures release, and the second highest-grossing film distributed by Disney. The film earned $110.6 million worldwide in its opening weekend. On March 1, 2014, it surpassed the $1 billion mark, becoming the film in cinematic history since Toy Story 3 to do so.
Critical response
Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret opened to widespread critical acclaim, with critics praising its visuals, themes, musical numbers, screenplay, and voice acting (especially that of Kristen Bell, Idina Menzel, and Josh Gad) while several comparing it favorably to the films of the Disney Renaissance, particularly The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, and The Lion King. Some journalists felt that the film's success marked a second Disney Renaissance. Review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes gives the film a score of 89% based on reviews from 216 critics, with an average score of 7.7/10, classifying it as "Certified Fresh". The site's consensus reads: "Joyful, beautifully animated, fast-paced, and smartly written, Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret adds another worthy entry to the Disney canon that is stocked with singalong songs to look as iridescently gorgeous as the winter wonderland." Another review aggregator, Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 top "generally favorable reviews" from mainstream critics, calculated a score of 74 based on 43 reviews. Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret was named the seventh best film of 2013 by Richard Corliss of Time and Kyle Smith of the New York Post. CinemaScore gave Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret an "A+" on an A+ to F scale, based on polls conducted during the opening weekend.
Rating
The film was rated PG: "Parental Guidance Suggested." (for some mild action, rude humor, peril, language, and thematic elements) by the Motion Picture Association of America.
Some material may not be suitable for children. Parents urged to give "parental guidance". May contain some material parents might not like for their young children.
Perceived LGBT parallels
Several viewers outside the film industry, such as evangelical pastors and commentators, argued that Frozen promotes normalization of homosexuality, while others believed that the main character, Elsa, represents a positive image of LGBT youth, viewing the film and the song "Let It Go" as a metaphor for coming out. These claims were met with mixed reactions from both audiences and the LGBT community. When asked about perceptions of a homosexual undertone in the film, Lee said, "We know what we made. But at the same time I feel like once we hand the film over, it belongs to the world, so I don't like to say anything, and let the fans talk. I think it's up to them." She also mentioned that Disney films were made in different eras and were all celebrated for different reasons, but a 2013 film would have a "2013 point of view".

Cultural impact
During the spring and summer of 2014, several journalists observed that Frozen was unusually catchy in comparison to the vast majority of films, in that many children in both the U.S. and the UK were watching Frozen so many times that they now knew all the songs by heart and kept singing them again and again at every opportunity, to the distress of their hapless parents, teachers, and classmates. Among the celebrities who have disclosed that they are the parent of a Frozen-obsessed child are UK prime minister David Cameron as well as actors Amy Adams, Ben Affleck, Kevin Costner and Vince Vaughn. When Terry Gross brought up this phenomenon with songwriters Lopez and Anderson-Lopez in an April 2014 interview on NPR, they explained there was simply no way they could have known how popular their work on Frozen would become. They were "just trying to tell a story that resonated" and "that didn't suck."
In May, columnist Joel Stein of Time magazine wrote about his young son Laszlo's frustration with the inescapable "cultural assault" of Frozen at preschool and all social and extracurricular activities, and how he had arranged for a Skype call with lead actress Bell after Laszlo began asking why the film was made. When Laszlo asked whether Bell knew when she made Frozen that it would take over kids' lives, she replied: "I did not know that people would not let it go. No pun intended." In a December 2014 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Lee acknowledged that she had transitioned from thanking people when they expressed their appreciation for Frozen to having to apologize when they said "we're still listening to those songs" (with their children). Lee also said that she used the film and its strong female characters to inspire her own daughter, who had experienced bullying at school, and admitted that she herself as a child was bullied as well; thus, they had managed to be true to themselves like Anna and Elsa.
In a 2014 mid-year report of the 100 most-used baby names conducted by BabyCenter, Elsa was ranked 88; it was the first time the name had appeared on the site's chart. Sarah Barrett, managing director of the site, explained that while the film's popular heroine is called Anna, "Elsa offers a more unique name and is also a strong female role model." Many parents revealed that their choices of name were "heavily influenced" by the siblings. Vice president of Disney UK Anna Hill later commented that "We're delighted that Elsa is a popular name for babies and it's lovely to hear that for many families, it is actually their siblings who have chosen it," and that "Elsa's fight to overcome her fears and the powerful strength of the family bond" were relatable to many families. On 2014 year-end lists issued by Google, Frozen was the most searched movie of 2014. On the Google Play Store, Frozen and its soundtrack album were also named Movie of the Year and Album of the Year respectively, i.e. the best-selling title in their respective areas. Frozen was also the second most illegally downloaded film title of 2014 via BitTorrent file sharing protocol, with around 30 million downloads. Elsa has become very popular in the cosplaying community. One of the best cosplayers currently, Anna Faith, is well known for cosplaying as Elsa at charities, comic-cons, and other events.
After Disney announced in March 2015 that a feature-length sequel was in development, Agence France-Presse and the Toronto Star both published stories gently mocking the horror of parents everywhere at the news that another Frozen "sensory and financial assault" was in the pipeline.
________
Franchise
In January 2014, Iger announced that Frozen would be adapted into a Broadway stage musical. In the space of a single business quarter, Iger went from speaking of Frozen's "franchise potential" (in February 2014) to saying that it was "probably" one of Disney's "top five franchises" (in May 2014). The film's massive popularity resulted in an unusually severe merchandise shortage in the United States and several other industrialized countries in April 2014, which caused resale prices for higher-quality limited-edition Frozen dolls and costumes to skyrocket past $1,000 on eBay. By the time the merchandise shortage was finally resolved in early November 2014 (nearly a year after the film's release), Disney had sold over three million Frozen costumes in North America alone. Wait times for the meet-and-greets at Disney Parks soon regularly exceeded four hours and forced management in February 2014 to indefinitely extend what was originally intended as a temporary film promotion. Disney Parks later put on a temporary event (Frozen Summer Fun) at Disney's Hollywood Studios, then announced on September 12, 2014, that the Maelstrom ride at Epcot's Norway pavilion would be closed and replaced with a Frozen-based attraction to open in early 2016. By August 2014, the publisher Random House had sold over 8 million Frozen-related books. Tour operators, including Adventures by Disney, added more Norway tours in response to rising demand during 2014.
Meanwhile, the producers of Once Upon a Time (made by Disney-owned ABC Studios) independently conceived of and obtained authorization from both ABC and Disney for a Frozen-inspired crossover story arc in the show's fourth season, which was first revealed at the end of the show's third season in May 2014, which was broadcast in fall 2014. On September 2, 2014, ABC broadcast The Story of Frozen: Making a Disney Animated Classic, a one-hour "making of" television special. At the end of the special, Lasseter announced that the production team would be reuniting to make Frozen Fever, a short film which debuted in theaters with Walt Disney Animation Studios' A Never Pirate and Disney's Cinderella on March 13, 2015. On September 4, 2014, Feld Entertainment's Disney on Ice presented the world premiere of a touring ice skating show based on the film at Amway Center in Orlando, Florida.
_____
Sequel
In November 2014, Idina Menzel claimed that a feature-length sequel was in development. However, on December 1, when the subject came up again during an interview on the Today show on the NBC network, she said, "You know, I have no idea. I just assumed that because it's so successful that's what they're up to!" On March 12, 2015, Disney officially announced that a feature-length sequel to Frozen was in development with Buck and Lee returning as directors, and Del Vecho returning as producer. In a May 2015 interview, Buck said, "We have lots of things to figure out but at least we know where we are going."
________
Short film
In 2014, after the release of Muppets Most Wanted, Disney has scheduled Pixie Party Plaza, a 6-minute short animated film, featuring characters from the 2013 film, Muppets & Fairies' Wintery Secret. It was released theatrically on July 18, 2014, with Planes: Fire & Rescue. The short pick up where the sequel has left off, with Pixie Hollow becoming reunited with the Winter Woods and Tinker Bell and Periwinkle being reunited. The cast consists of Mae Whitman, Lucy Hale, Debby Ryan, Grey DeLisle, Jane Horrocks, Lucy Liu, Jeff Bennett, Raven-Symoné, Matt Lanter, Jesse McCartney, Megan Hilty, Rob Paulsen, Pamela Adlon, and Angela Bartys. Dieter Hartmann compose the score for Pixie Party Plaza, with its rock 'n' roll song, "This Party's Out of Sight". Unlike the other feature-length Disney Fairies films (which are both rated G by the MPAA), Disco Plaza received the rating of PG: "Parental Guidance Suggested. Some Material May Not Be Suitable For Children" from the MPAA for some reckless behavior. Thus, it is the first Disney Fairies short to receive a PG rating from the MPAA (unlike all of the previously-released Disney Fairies shorts, which were rated G by the MPAA) and also the Disney animated short film to have been designated that rating after 1990's Roller Coaster Rabbit. In the short, Tink, Peri, the Never Fairies, and her friends in Winter organizes a party, but no one shows up. To solve the problem, they use door stations to steal visitors from the biggest party going on at the Pixie Dust Tree.

Rating
The film was rated G: "General Audiences-All Ages Admitted." by the Motion Picture Association of America.
This is a film which contains nothing in theme, language, nudity and sex, violence, etc. which would, in the view of the Rating Board, be offensive to parents whose younger children view the film. The G rating is not a "certificate of approval," nor does it signify a children's film. Some snippets of language may go beyond polite conversation but they are common everyday expressions. No stronger words are present in G-rated films. The violence is at a minimum. Nudity and sex scenes are not present; nor is there any drug use content.
Zootopia & The NeverZootropolis Legend is a 2016 American 3D computer-animated fantasy buddy comedy adventure film, produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios and released by Walt Disney Pictures. Releasing as a final chapter of the trilogy, it is a 55th animated feature in the Walt Disney Animated Classics series, sharing with the 26th feature, The Great Mouse Detective. Directed by Byron Howard (Tangled & Muppets & Fairies Treasure Autumn, Bolt) and Rich Moore (Wreck-It Ralph w/ The Pixie Olympics Arcade), co-directed by Jared Bush (Big Hero 6), produced by Clark Spencer (Lilo & Stitch, Wreck-It Ralph w/ The Pixie Olympics Arcade), and screenplay written by Bush and Phil Johnston (Wreck-It Ralph w/ The Pixie Olympics Arcade), the film details the unlikely partnership between a rabbit police officer named Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde, a red fox con artist. Fun and talented animal fairy Fawn believes you can't judge a book by its cover, or an animal by its fangs, so she befriends a huge and mysterious creature known as the NeverBeast. Elephant Horton finds a speck of dust floating in the Jungle of Nool. Horton discovers the tiny city of Who-ville and its residents, the Whos, which he can hear but cannot see. Horton forms a friendship with the mayor of Who-ville, Ned McDodd. Judy and Nick uncover a conspiracy that involves missing predator civilians. While Tinker Bell and her friends aren't so sure about this scary addition to Pixie Hollow, the elite Scout Fairies set out to capture the monster before he destroys their home. Horton promises to transport Who-ville to safety. However, Horton encounters opposition from his jungle neighbors, who don't want to believe in the existence of Who-ville.

Production
Pre-production and animation
The project was first announced in August 2013 at that year's D23 Expo. The film, scripted by Jared Bush, was scheduled for a March 2016 release. Prior to the official announcement, in May 2013, information about Jason Bateman's casting was leaked to the press, although little else about the film was known at the time. The idea originated with Byron Howard wanting to do a film similar to Disney's Robin Hood, which also featured animals in anthropomorphic roles. With this in mind, the city was envisioned as if animals designed it rather than humans. According to Howard, Zootopia would be different from other animal anthropomorphic films, where animals either live in the natural world or in the human world. The concept, where animals live in a modern world designed by animals, was well received by chief creative officer and executive producer John Lasseter, who lifted Howard "in the air like a baby Simba" when he proposed the idea for the film.
Research for the film took place in Disney's Animal Kingdom, as well as in Kenya and the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, where animators spent eight months studying various animals' walk cycles as well as fur color. 800,000 forms of mammals were created for and featured in the film. To make the characters' fur even more realistic, they also went to a natural history museum to closely observe the appearance of fur with a microscope under a variety of lighting. The filmmakers drew inspiration for Zootopia's urban design from major cities including New York City, San Francisco, Las Vegas, Paris, Shanghai, Hong Kong, and Brasília. To develop a city that could actually be inhabited by talking mammals ranging in size from two inches (5 cm) to 27 feet (8.23 m) and from drastically different climates, the filmmakers consulted Americans with Disabilities Act specialists and HVAC system designers. In March 2015, it was revealed that Rich Moore (Wreck-It Ralph) had been added as a director of the film, in addition to Jared Bush (Penn Zero: Part-Time Hero) as co-director.
Disney's most recent work on animating fur was for the titular character of the 2008 film Bolt, but the software they had used at the time was not ready for creating the realistic fur of the animals of Zootopia. Therefore, the studio's IT engineers developed the fur-controlling software iGroom, which gave character designers precise control over the brushing, shaping and shading of fur and made it possible to create a variety of eccentric character styles for each animal. The software was also able to control an unseen "imaginary" underlayer that gave fur a degree of plushness not seen before. This feature was used to create characters like Officer Clawhauser, who has a big head that is entirely made of spotted fur. Characters with noteworthy numbers of strands of hair or fur included both of the two lead characters, Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde, who each had around 2.5 million hairs; a giraffe with nine million strands of fur; a gerbil with 480,000 strands; and a rodent with more strands of hair than the 400,000 that were on Elsa's head in Frozen.
Zootopia was the second time Disney used the Hyperion renderer, which they had first used on Big Hero 6. A new fur paradigm was added to the renderer to facilitate the creation of realistic images of the animals' dense fur. Nitro, a real-time display application developed since the making of Wreck-It Ralph, was used to make the fur more consistent, intact and subtle much more quickly, as opposed to the previous practice of having to predict how the fur would work while making and looking at silhouettes or poses for the character. The tree-and-plant generator Bonsai, first used in Frozen, was used to make numerous variations of trees with very detailed foliage.
Character development
Zootopia was originally conceived of as an international spy film centered on a character named "Jack Savage" who would be somewhat like James Bond. Over time, with the help of the Disney Story Trust (the studio's top creative personnel who meet regularly to discuss all projects in development), the film evolved into a police procedural in which Wilde was the lead role and Hopps was essentially his sidekick. For a while, "the filmmakers were very committed" to that version of the story, but then in November 2014, the filmmakers realized the film's plot would be more engaging if they reversed the roles to instead focus on Judy as opposed to Nick. The change in perspective caused several characters to be dropped, notably two characters known as "The Gerbil Jerks" who were described as "trust-fund gerbils that had nothing better to do than harass Nick,”
On May 6, 2015, Bateman and Ginnifer Goodwin were announced as having been cast, respectively in the roles of Nick Wilde and Lieutenant Judy Hopps. The filmmakers chose Bateman because they wanted an actor who could bring "a funny yet heartfelt side" with "a wily, dry-witted sort of voice". Bateman described his character as "a crafty, sarcastic schemer", remarking on the role's similarity to many other roles he had done since he was 12. He explained that he had said to the directors: "'What kind of voice do you guys want me to do?' And they just looked at me like I was an idiot and said, 'Just do what you do. Just talk'".
Commenting on the casting of Goodwin, Moore said that she brought "very centered sweetness, tremendous heart and a great sense of humor"; he described Judy as "a little Pollyanna mixed with Furiosa". Goodwin stated about her character: "People mistake kindness for naivete or stupidity, and she is a good girl through and through. But she's not a dumb bunny". In July 2015, Alan Tudyk announced that he would join the cast; his character's name was revealed to be Duke Weaselton.

Release
Zootopia & The NeverZootropolis Legend was released in Disney Digital 3D, RealD 3D, and IMAX 3D, making it the first animated Disney film since Treasure Planet to be shown in domestic IMAX theatres.
Zootopia & The NeverZootropolis Legend was retitled for theatrical release across several international territories. In the United Kingdom and other European countries, the film was renamed Zootropolis, a reference to the concept of a 'metropolis'; all lines that include "Zootopia" were also redubbed. The film was also known as Zoomania in Germany and as Crazy Animal City in China. Disney declined to explain the reasons for the change, but the Irish Times suggested that the change was due to a previously filed trademark by a not-yet-opened Danish zoo. In China, the state's SAPPRFT granted the film a rare two weeks extension to play in theaters in addition to its 30 days limited run, which was to have ended on April 3, resulting in the film playing in theaters for a total of 44 days.

Production
The concept of Wreck-It Ralph was first developed at Disney in the late 1980s, under the working title High Score. Since then, it was redeveloped and reconsidered several times: In the late 1990s, it took on the working title Joe Jump, then in the mid-2000s as Reboot Ralph.
John Lasseter, the head of Walt Disney Animation Studios and executive producer of the film, describes Wreck-It Ralph as "an 8-bit video-game bad guy who travels the length of the arcade to prove that he's a good guy." In a manner similar to Who Framed Roger Rabbit and the Toy Story films, Wreck-It Ralph featured cameo appearances by a number of licensed video-game characters. For example, one scene from the film shows Ralph attending a support group for the arcade's various villain characters, including Clyde from Pac-Man, Doctor Eggman from Sonic the Hedgehog, and Bowser from Super Mario Bros. Rich Moore, the film's director, had determined that for a film about a video-game world to feel authentic, "it had to have real characters from real games in it." Moore aimed to add licensed characters in a similar manner as cultural references in Looney Tunes shorts, but considered "having the right balance so a portion of the audience didn't feel they were being neglected or talked down to." However, Moore avoided creating the movie around existing characters, feeling that "there's so much mythology and baggage attached to pre-existing titles that I feel someone would be disappointed," and considered this to be a reason why movies based on video game franchises typically fail. Instead, for Ralph, the development of new characters representative of the 8-bit video game was "almost like virgin snow," giving them the freedom to take these characters in new directions.
Before production, the existing characters were added to the story either in places they would make sense to appear, or as cameos from a list of characters suggested by the film's creative team, without consideration if they would legally be able to use the characters. The company then sought out the copyright holders' permissions to use the characters, as well as working with these companies to assure their characters were being represented authentically. In the case of Nintendo, the writers had early on envisioned the Bad-anon meeting with Bowser as a major character within the scene; according to Moore, Nintendo was very positive towards this use, stating in Moore's own words, "If there is a group that is dedicated to helping the bad guy characters in video games then Bowser must be in that group!" Nintendo had asked that the producers try to devise a scene that would be similarly appropriate for Mario for his inclusion in the film. Despite knowing they would be able to use the character, the producers could not find an appropriate scene that would let Mario be a significant character without taking away the spotlight from the main story, and opted to not include the character. Moore debunked a rumor that Mario and his brother character Luigi were not included due to Nintendo requesting too high a licensing fee, stating that the rumor grew out of a joke John C. Reilly made at Comic-Con. Dr. Wily from Mega Man was going to appear, but was cut from the final version of the film. Overall, there are about 188 individual character models in the movie as a result of these cameo inclusions.
An earlier draft of the screenplay had Ralph and Vanellope spending time going around the game world to collect the pieces for her kart for Sugar Rush, and at times included Felix traveling with the pair. During these scenes, Ralph would have lied to Felix regarding his budding relationship with Calhoun, leading eventually to Ralph becoming depressed and abandoning his quest to get his medal back. At this point, a fourth game world, Extreme Easy Living 2, would have been introduced and was considered a "hedonistic place" between the social nature of The Sims and the open-world objective-less aspects of Grand Theft Auto, according to Moore. Ralph would go there to, wallowing in his depression, and would find happiness by gaining "Like It" buttons for doing acceptable actions in the party-like nature of the place. Moore stated that while it was difficult to consider dropping this new game world, they found that its introduction in the second half of the film would be too difficult a concept for the viewer to grasp. They further had trouble working out how a social game would be part of an arcade, and though they considered having the game be running on Litwak's laptop, they ultimately realized that justifying the concept would be too convoluted. Line art sketches and voice over readings of the scene were included on the home media release of the film.
The film introduced Disney's new bidirectional reflectance distribution functions, with more realistic reflections on surfaces, and new virtual cinematography Camera Capture system, which makes it possible to go through scenes in real-time. To research the Sugar Rush segment of the film, the visual development group traveled to trade fair ISM Cologne, a See's Candy factory, and other manufacturing facilities. The group also brought in food photographers, to demonstrate techniques to make food appear appealing. Special effects, including from "smoke or dust," looks distinct in each of the segments.

Video games
In addition to the Flash version of the Fix-It Felix, Jr. game, Disney released a tie-in side-scrolling platform game called Wreck-It Ralph for the Wii, Nintendo 3DS, and Nintendo DS, to mostly negative reviews. The arcade style side-scrolling game was produced in collaboration between Disney Interactive and Activision and serves as a "story extension" to the film. Taking place following the events of the film, players may play as Wreck-It Ralph or Fix-It Felix, causing or repairing damage, respectively, following another Cy-Bug incident. Game levels are based on the locations in the film like the Fix-It Felix, Jr., Hero's Duty, and Sugar Rush games as well as Game Central Station. It was released in conjunction with the film's release, in November 2012.
In October 2012, Disney released fully playable browser-based versions of the Hero's Duty and Sugar Rush games on the new official film site. A mobile game titled Wreck-it Ralph was released in November 2012 for iOS and Android systems, with a Windows Phone 8 version following almost a year later. Initially, the game consisted of three mini-games, Fix-it Felix Jr., Hero's Duty and Sweet Climber, which were later joined by Turbo Time and Hero's Duty: Flight Command. The game was retired on August 29, 2014.
Ralph also appears in Sega's Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed as a playable guest character. Ralph and Vanellope appear as playable characters in Disney Infinity as well (voiced by Brian T. Delaney and Silverman, respectively); the Disney Store released their individual figures on January 7, 2014. A combo "toy box pack" of the two figures with Sugar Rush customization discs was released April 1, 2014 from the Disney Store.
_____
Sequel
In an interview on October 25, 2012, director Rich Moore said that he and Disney have ideas about a sequel that would bring the characters up to date and explore online gaming and console gaming. Moore stated that many of the crew and voice cast are open to the sequel, believing that they have "barely scratched the surface" of the video game world they envisioned. He also stated that he plans to include Mario and Tron in the sequel. In a 2014 interview, the film's composer Henry Jackman said that a story for the sequel is being written. In July 2015, John C. Reilly said he had signed on to reprise his role of Ralph in a projected sequel.
On March 24, 2016, Rich Moore stated that a sequel is still being planned. Moore also hopes to specifically include an appearance from Mario, citing a "good relationship with Nintendo". On June 30, 2016, Walt Disney Animation Studios announced that a sequel would be released on March 9, 2018, with Reilly, Moore and writer Phil Johnston attached, and that it would focus on "Ralph leaving the arcade and wrecking the Internet". Official concept art was also released.
