Frozen II's world premiere was held at the El Capitan Theatre in Los Angeles on November 5, 2018, followed by the film's release by Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures in the United States on November 21, 2018. Unlike its predecessor, the film received universal acclaim from critics for its craftsmanship, animation, delivery, music, soundtrack, visuals, themes, voice acting, and many calling it an improvement over its predecessor and the filmmakers praising the dedication (even for the prologue) to the memories of the Disney Fairies' Tinker Bell film series produced by DisneyToon Studios due to the franchise's absence in 2015 and production studio's closure in 2018; while others gained criticism for the screenplay and darker tone compared to the other lighter Disney features (except for The Hunchback of Notre Dame). The film is also dedicated to Walt Disney V, the producer of the studio's franchise, who died on December 15, 2016 due to circulatory collapse due to complications from lung cancer after he was smoking for the entire life; it marked the final installment of the Disney Revival trilogy and the final animated feature film from the company to have Walt's personal touch (starting with The Little Mermaid). Gigantic, a new musical film based on the English folk tale "Jack and the Beanstalk", is the story was set in Spain, in which Jack befriends a female giant. Originally titled Giants, the film would have been directed by Nathan Greno and Meg LeFauve, co-written by LeFauve, produced by Dorothy McKim and Walt Disney V (approved to be one of the last feature films to be supervised by him), executive-produced by John Lasseter, and included songs written by Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez (the song-writing team behind Tinker Bell's fan-franchise, Frozen, and the Winnie the Pooh sequel). However, the project faced multiple delays, having been previously scheduled for release on November 23, 2016, March 9, 2018, November 21, 2018, and November 25, 2020. On October 10, 2017, Walt Disney Animation Studios President Ed Catmull announced that the film had been shelved (it was part of the dedication tribute along with the Tinker Bell trilogy, DisneyToon Studios, and Walt Disney V). While still retaining much of the humor of its predecessor, the film is notably darker in tone, with a heavier focus on action, death, and intense imagery. This was a deliberate move by the filmmakers (especially for Wolfgang "Woolie" Reitherman, Walt Disney's successor and one of the members of the Nine Old Men), who likened the tone of Frozen II to earlier Walt Disney-era fairy tales such as Pinocchio. Those two films released before DisneyToon Studios and the Tinker Bell trilogy which has an even more lighter tone that can replace the climax and ending for Frozen II was The Little Mermaid in 1989 (a huge medicine for all DisneyToon Studios, the Tinker Bell trilogy, and the Frozen franchise (Anna and Elsa's childhood and Queen Iduna's era only)) and Enchanted in 2007 (a huge medicine for the Tinker Bell trilogy and the Frozen franchise (Anna and Elsa's childhood and Queen Iduna's era only)).

Plot
Two years after her coronation, Elsa celebrates autumn in the kingdom with Anna, Olaf the snowman, Kristoff the ice harvester, and Kristoff's reindeer Sven. One night, when Elsa hears a mysterious voice calling out to her, she follows it and unintentionally awakens the elemental spirits, which forces everyone in the kingdom to evacuate. Grand Pabbie and the Rock Troll colony arrive and Pabbie informs them that they must set things right by discovering the truth about the past. Elsa, Anna, Olaf, Kristoff, and Sven embark to the Enchanted Forest, following the mysterious voice. As the mist parts at Elsa's touch, the Air spirit, in the form of a tornado, appears and sweeps everyone in its vortex. Elsa stops it, forming a set of ice sculptures. The sisters discover the sculptures are images from their father's past. They encounter the Northuldra and a troop of Arendellian soldiers who are still in conflict with one another. When the Fire spirit appears, Elsa discovers the spirit to be an agitated magical salamander, and calms it down. Elsa and Anna arrange a truce between the soldiers and the Northuldra after discovering that their mother, Queen Iduna, was a Northuldran who had saved Agnarr, an Arendellian.
Elsa, Anna, and Olaf continue to head north, leaving Kristoff and Sven behind. Elsa, Anna and Olaf find their parents' wrecked ship and a map with a route to Ahtohallan, a mythical river told by their mother to contain all explanations of the past. Elsa sends Anna and Olaf away to safety and continues alone. Elsa encounters and tames the Nøkk, the Water spirit who guards the sea to Ahtohallan. Reaching Ahtohallan, a glacier, Elsa discovers that the voice calling to her was the memory of young Iduna's call; that her powers were a gift from nature because of Iduna's selfless act of saving Agnarr and that Elsa herself is the fifth spirit. Elsa then learns that the dam was built as a ruse to reduce the Northuldra's resources because of Runeard's contempt of the tribe's connection with magic and his intention to wipe them out and incorporate the region into the kingdom. Elsa also learns Runeard was the one who initiated the conflict by killing the unarmed Northuldra leader in cold blood. Elsa sends this information to Anna before becoming frozen (causing Olaf to fade away) due to venturing into the most dangerous part of Ahtohallan.
In the tribute, Tinker Bell arrives at the border with an ice-powered snow maker. With the machine keeping her cool, Peri crosses over and Tink introduces her to her friends and shows her the warm side of Pixie Hollow. After a while, the machine starts running out of ice and Peri's wings begin to wilt. After Elsa accidentally injures Anna with her magic, Agnarr and Iduna take both siblings to a colony of trolls led by Grand Pabbie. Tink and her friends rush her to the border where they meet Lord Milori, who takes Peri back to the woods. Grand Pabbie heals Anna but alters her memories so that she forgets about Elsa's magic. Grand Pabbie warns Elsa that she must learn to control her powers and that fear will be her greatest enemy. Queen Clarion arrives and explains that she was the one who instated the law. Tinker Bell and Periwinkle tearfully say goodbye to each other forever. Agnarr and Iduna isolate both sisters within the castle, closing the castle gates to their subjects. Milori knocks the snow-maker into the stream under the bridge. Tinker Bell and Periwinkle are told, by Clarion and Milori respectively, the story of two fairies who fell in love, one from the warm seasons, the other from the Winter Woods. As their romance grew, one of them crossed the border, resulting in them breaking a wing; a damage that there was no known cure for. After this, Clarion declared the separation of the warm fairies from the winter fairies in order to prevent any incidents like the one from the story happening again. Anna receives Elsa's message and concludes that the dam must be destroyed for peace to be restored (and also to make moving on from their childhood to adulthood much easier). Anna finds and awakens the gigantic Earth spirits and lures them towards the dam. The giants hurl boulders aimed at Anna which destroy the dam, sending a flood down the fjord towards the kingdom. Elsa thaws out and returns to Arendelle, diverting the flood and saving the kingdom. As the mist disappears, Elsa reunites with Anna and revives Olaf, and Anna accepts Kristoff's marriage proposal. Elsa explains that she and Anna are the bridge between the people and the magical spirits. Anna becomes the new Queen of Arendelle while Elsa becomes the protector of the Enchanted Forest who regularly visits Arendelle as peace has been restored.
Tucking her wings in a coat, Tinker Bell hides in a shipment of snowflake baskets. She gets picked up by a novice owl who crash lands in the Winter Woods, and the book falls out of her bag. The book is found by Milori, who has it delivered to the Keeper. Tink secretly follows to the library and spots the Keeper, Dewey. Another winter fairy rushes into the room, and Tink notices her wings sparkling like her own. Tink and the other fairy, Periwinkle, notice each other and it is revealed that they were born from the same laugh, making them sisters.
Princess Elsa of Arendelle possesses magical powers that allow her to control and create ice and snow, often using them to play with her younger sister, Anna. The two spend the day together, with Peri showing Tinker Bell around the Winter Woods and introducing her to her friends, bubbly Gliss and sarcastic Spike. King Agnarr of Arendelle tells a story to Elsa and Anna, about their grandfather, King Runeard, establishing a treaty with a neighboring tribe of Northuldra by building a dam in their homeland, the Enchanted Forest. However, a fight occurs, resulting in Runeard's death and enraging the elemental spirits of Earth, Fire, Water, and Air of the forest. The spirits disappear and a wall of mist traps everyone in the Enchanted Forest. Young Agnarr barely escapes due to the help of an unknown savior. At Peri's home, Tink builds a fire which eventually causes the floor to melt and crumble beneath them. Having her wings tucked inside her coat, Tink is unable to fly and nearly falls but is saved by Dewey. He advises that it is too dangerous for them to be together and the sisters pretend to say goodbye at the border but promise to meet again.
The next day, Tinker Bell arrives at the border with an ice-powered snow maker. With the machine keeping her cool, Peri crosses over and Tink introduces her to her friends and shows her the warm side of Pixie Hollow. After a while, the machine starts running out of ice and Peri's wings begin to wilt. After Elsa accidentally injures Anna with her magic, Agnarr and Queen Iduna take both siblings to a colony of trolls led by Grand Pabbie. Tink and her friends rush her to the border where they meet Milori, who takes Peri back to the woods. Grand Pabbie heals Anna but alters her memories so that she forgets about Elsa's magic. Grand Pabbie warns Elsa that she must learn to control her powers and that fear will be her greatest enemy. Queen Clarion arrives and explains that she was the one who instated the law. Tinker Bell and Periwinkle tearfully say goodbye to each other forever. Agnarr and Iduna isolate both sisters within the castle, closing the castle gates to their subjects. Milori knocks the snow-maker into the stream under the bridge, where it gets caught by some rocks. Tinker Bell and Periwinkle are told, by Clarion and Milori respectively, the story of two fairies who fell in love, one from the warm seasons, the other from the Winter Woods. As their romance grew, one of them crossed the border, resulting in them breaking a wing; a damage that there was no known cure for. After this, Clarion declared the separation of the warm fairies from the winter fairies in order to prevent any incidents like the one from the story happening again. To protect her sister from her increasingly unpredictable powers, Elsa ceases all contact with Anna, creating a rift between them. When the sisters are teenagers, their parents are lost at sea during a storm.
Tinker Bell and her friends attend a summer fairy camp on the mainland. Following her 21st birthday, Elsa is to be crowned queen of Arendelle. She is afraid that the kingdom's citizens might find out about her powers and fear her. The castle gates open to the public and visiting dignitaries for the first time in years. Among them are the scheming Duke of Weselton and the dashing Prince Hans of the Southern Isles, with whom Anna falls in love at first sight. Out of curiosity, Tink goes to visit the nearby human house followed by Vidia. At the same moment, Dr. Griffiths and his daughter Lizzy arrive at the house, their summer home. Elsa's coronation takes place without incident, but she remains distant from Anna. Lizzy leaves out a hand-made fairy house, which Tink is fascinated by, despite Vidia's constant warnings; annoyed, Vidia jams the door shut. When Lizzy returns, Vidia tries to free Tink to no avail, resulting in Lizzy discovering Tink inside and taking her home. Lizzy attempts to show Tink to her father, but he was too busy. Seeing all the butterflies he has pinned in display for research, Lizzy decides to keep Tink a secret. Anna and Hans develop a romantic connection during the coronation festivities, and he impulsively proposes to her, but Elsa objects when they seek her blessing. Hurt and confused, Anna protests, begging Elsa to explain her fear and isolation. The emotional strain causes Elsa to accidentally unleash her powers before the court. Receiving news of an emergency, Tinker Bell and Clarion fly back to the border where they find that the snow-maker has been collecting ice from the stream, generating snow continuously and causing a massive blizzard. Tink and her friends manage to free the snow-maker, but a freeze that will engulf Pixie Hollow begins to spread, and will eventually reach the Pixie Dust tree. Branded a monster by the Duke, Elsa flees to the North Mountain, where she finally acknowledges her powers, building an ice palace to live a hermit life. In the process, her magic unintentionally engulfs Arendelle in an eternal winter.
Trying to think of what to do, Tink notices that a Periwinkle flower that Peri had covered in frost is still alive and flies to the Winter Woods. Anna ventures out to find Elsa and end the winter, leaving Hans in command. Meanwhile, Vidia rallies Fawn, Rosetta, Iridessa, Silvermist, Clank and Bobble to rescue Tinker Bell. Due to their inability to fly in the rain, the group build a boat to sail to the house. Anna gets lost, collecting supplies at Wandering Oaken's shop. She meets an iceman named Kristoff and his reindeer, Sven, convincing them to take her to the mountains. An attack by wolves leads to Kristoff's sleigh being destroyed. In her room, Lizzy reveals her fascination of fairies to Tinker Bell. Flattered by Lizzy's interests, Tink decides to teach her about fairies; Lizzy records all the information in a blank field journal given to her by her father. Despite smooth sailing at first, the boat encounters a waterfall and crashes, forcing the party to proceed on foot. As the rain dies down, the two say goodbye; Tink prepares to leave, while Lizzy runs downstairs to show her father her research. Tink flies down to look but sees that Lizzy's father is too busy dealing with leaks in the ceiling to pay attention. Tink spends the night fixing the leaks so Dr. Griffiths will spend more time with his daughter. When she finishes, she releases a captive butterfly that, unknown to her, Dr. Griffiths had intended to show to a museum committee in London. When Anna's horse returns to Arendelle without her, Hans sets out to find Anna and Elsa, accompanied by the Duke's minions, who have secret orders to kill Elsa. Reaching the ice palace, Anna meets Elsa. When Anna reveals what has become of Arendelle, a horrified Elsa confesses she does not know how to undo her magic. Her fear causes her powers to manifest themselves once more, and she accidentally freezes Anna's heart, seriously injuring her. As she approaches Peri and her friends, Tink's wings freeze and she crash lands. Elsa then creates a giant snow monster named Marshmallow, who chases Anna and Kristoff away. Peri's friends explain that frost keeps the warm air inside like a blanket. The next morning, Lizzy is greeted by Tinker Bell and is excited to hear that the leaks have been fixed. She runs down to show her father her field journal but instead he blames her for the missing butterfly and sends her to her room. On the way, Vidia confesses that it was her fault that Tink was captured, but they forgive her by telling her it would've been worse if she hadn't been there at all. Realizing the effects of Elsa's spell on Anna, Kristoff takes her to the trolls, his adoptive family. Grand Pabbie reveals that Anna will freeze solid unless "an act of true love" reverses the spell.
Kristoff races Anna back home so Hans can give her true love's kiss. Hans and his men reach Elsa's palace, defeating Marshmallow and capturing Elsa. To cheer her up, Tink teaches Lizzy to fly, using her pixie dust, and the commotion brings her father upstairs. Anna is delivered to Hans, but rather than kissing her, Hans instead reveals that he has actually been plotting to seize the throne of Arendelle by eliminating both sisters. Hans locks Anna in a room to die and then manipulates the dignitaries into believing that Elsa killed her, but not before they were married. He orders the queen's execution, only to discover she has escaped her detention cell. At the same moment, the rescue party arrives at the house. While the rest of them distract Lizzy's cat, Vidia flies upstairs to look for Tinker Bell. Anna is freed by Olaf, her childhood talking snowman companion, and they venture into the blizzard outside to meet Kristoff, who Olaf has revealed is in love with her. Dr. Griffiths sternly demands the truth and Lizzy confesses in tears about Tink. Still refusing to believe in fairies, he begins tearing down her artwork and tossing them in the wastebasket, including her field journal. Infuriated, Tink bursts out of her hiding place and angrily scolds Lizzy's father, much to his astonishment. Seeing Dr. Griffiths about to capture her, Vidia quickly bumps Tink out of the way and gets captured instead. Ignoring Lizzy's pleas, her father unknowingly takes Vidia and drives to London to show his discovery to the museum committee. Lizzy, with the help of Tink and the other fairies, takes flight and chases her father to London. They return to the pixie dust tree to cover it in frost. Though it seems like an impossible task for only three fairies, they are soon joined by Milori who brings reinforcements, and all the winter fairies work to frost as much of the warm seasons as possible. Flying ahead, Tinker Bell tampers with the car's engine, causing it to stop and allowing Lizzy to catch up. Hans confronts Elsa outside, claiming that she killed Anna, causing Elsa to break down and abruptly stop the storm. As the freeze approaches, Milori warns the warm fairies to take cover, including Clarion whom he gives his cape, revealing one of his wings is broken.
After some time, the freeze finally subsides. The Pixie Dust Tree is safe, and all the fairies celebrate. Anna spots Hans about to kill Elsa; she leaps in the way and freezes solid, stopping Hans. However, Tink reveals that she broke a wing when she flew to the woods earlier. Devastated, Elsa hugs and mourns over her sister. Lizzy pleads with her father not to take Vidia to the museum. Dr. Griffiths finally listens to his daughter and apologizes for not believing her. As the sisters say goodbye, Tink and Peri's wings touch and, in a flash, Tinker Bell's wing heals. Anna thaws out, her heroism constituting "an act of true love". Clarion and Milori share a kiss, revealing themselves as the two lovers from the story. Realizing that love is the key to controlling her magic, Elsa ends the winter. Lizzy and the fairies teach her father to fly and they all return to the house. Hans is arrested and exiled from the kingdom for his treason and attempted assassination, while the Duke's trade links with Arendelle are cut off. Anna gives Kristoff a new sleigh and the two share a kiss. Sometime later, the warm fairies are now able to cross over into the border by having their wings frosted and the two sisters never have to be apart again. The sisters are reunited, and Elsa promises never to lock the castle gates again. Soon after, Lizzy and her father have a picnic in the field with the fairies, reading Lizzy's field journal.
Elsa plans to give Anna a surprise birthday party with the help of Kristoff, Sven, and Olaf; but while Anna is led on a party treasure hunt by a string that winds through the kingdom, Elsa has caught a cold (possibly as a result of the enternal winter from the film), and unknowingly produces a group of "Snowgies" 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 snowmen and fix the decorations in time for Anna and Elsa's return. Meanwhile, Elsa's condition rapidly worsens and she becomes delirious with a fever. After Elsa nearly falls off a clock tower, Anna convinces her to admit that she has a cold. They walk back to the castle where Elsa apologizes to Anna for "ruining" another birthday, but Anna reassures her that she didn't ruin anything, despite having a fever. As Anna goes to lead Elsa to bed, the doors to the castle open to reveal Kristoff, Olaf, Sven, and a mountain of tiny snowmen, who surprise Anna. Elsa sneezes again and finally sees more tiny snowmen that she produced. Despite Anna's protests, Elsa concludes the party by blowing into an alphorn. However, she sneezes into the horn, forming a giant snowball that inadvertently hits Hans overseas (and into a cart of manure, as he was cleaning out the stables as punishment for his attempt to kill Elsa and take over Arendelle). Elsa rests in bed under Anna's care while she points out that taking care of her beloved big sister is the best birthday present ever. Olaf, Kristoff, and Sven escort the small snowmen to Elsa's ice palace, where they stay with her snow-giant doorkeeper Marshmallow.
Wreck-It Ralph and Vanellope von Schweetz have stayed best friends, hanging out after work in Litwak's Arcade. Ralph is content with their life, but Vanellope longs for excitement and expresses how bored she has become of Sugar Rush's predictability. One night, Ralph sneaks into her game and makes a new track for her. The next day, when Vanellope fights the arcade player's control to test the track, the cabinet's steering wheel breaks. As the company that made Sugar Rush is defunct, and the cost of a replacement wheel on eBay is too high, Litwak decides to scrap Sugar Rush and unplugs the game, leaving its citizens homeless, including a crestfallen Vanellope. With Fix-It Felix and Tamora Jean Calhoun's help, the Surge Protector finds homes for all Sugar Rush's citizens as a short-term measure as they figure out how to save the game. Remembering eBay, Ralph and Vanellope travel to the Internet, a place where websites are buildings in a sprawling city, avatars represent users, and programs are people, via Litwak's new Wi-Fi router.
They go to the search engine KnowsMore to find eBay where Ralph and Vanellope end up winning the auction for the steering wheel by unintentionally spiking the price to US$27,001. Ralph and Vanellope have just 24 hours to come up with the funds, or they will forfeit the bid and lose the wheel. On the way out, they run into clickbait salesman J.P. Spamley, who offers them a lucrative job of stealing a car from Shank, the lead character in the popular racing-centered MMORPG Slaughter Race. Two years after her coronation, Elsa celebrates autumn in the kingdom with Anna, Olaf the snowman, Kristoff the ice harvester, and Kristoff's reindeer Sven. One night, when Elsa hears a mysterious voice calling out to her, she follows it and unintentionally awakens the elemental spirits, which forces everyone in the kingdom to evacuate. Grand Pabbie and the Rock Troll colony arrive and Pabbie informs them that they must set things right by discovering the truth about the past.
Elsa, Anna, Olaf, Kristoff, and Sven embark to the Enchanted Forest, following the mysterious voice. As the mist parts at Elsa's touch, the Air spirit, in the form of a tornado, appears and sweeps everyone in its vortex. Elsa stops it, forming a set of ice sculptures. The sisters discover the sculptures are images from their father's past. They encounter the Northuldra and a troop of Arendellian soldiers who are still in conflict with one another. When the Fire spirit appears, Elsa discovers the spirit to be an agitated magical salamander, and calms it down. Elsa and Anna arrange a truce between the soldiers and the Northuldra after discovering that their mother, Queen Iduna, was a Northuldran who had saved Agnarr, an Arendellian. Shank directs Ralph and Vanellope to BuzzzTube's head algorithm, Yesss, about earning money for the video. At BuzzzTube, Yesss elates on Ralph's video popularity, and they come up with the idea of making more videos, which will earn them the money for the wheel in no time if given enough views. Vanellope offers to help advertise the videos, and Ralph has Yesss send her to "Oh My Disney". There, while escaping from Stormtroopers, Vanellope befriends the Disney Princesses, being encouraged by them to discuss her sense of un-fulfillment and reaching a musical epiphany. Ralph makes enough money to buy the wheel.
Elsa, Anna, and Olaf continue to head north, leaving Kristoff and Sven behind. Elsa, Anna and Olaf find their parents' wrecked ship and a map with a route to Ahtohallan, a mythical river told by their mother to contain all explanations of the past. Elsa sends Anna and Olaf away to safety and continues alone. Elsa encounters and tames the Nøkk, the Water spirit who guards the sea to Ahtohallan. Reaching Ahtohallan, a glacier, Elsa discovers that the voice calling to her was the memory of young Iduna's call; that her powers were a gift from nature because of Iduna's selfless act of saving Agnarr and that Elsa herself is the fifth spirit. Ralph finds Vanellope talking with Shank about staying in Slaughter Race, having felt home there due to its relative novelty and unpredictability compared to Sugar Rush. Worried of losing his friend forever, Ralph asks Spamley for a way to draw Vanellope out of the game and is brought to the dark web vendor Double Dan, who provides Ralph with a virus, Arthur, that feeds off insecurities and replicates them. When Ralph unleashes Arthur into Slaughter Race, it replicates Vanellope's glitch, triggering a server reboot. Ralph, Shank, and the others help Vanellope escape before the game resets. Unfortunately they wouldn't be able to get out of Slaughter Race after Arthur was to stay in the rebooting game so it won't destroy the Internet (just as Double Dan had told us). Elsa then learns that the dam was built as a ruse to reduce the Northuldra's resources because of Runeard's contempt of the tribe's connection with magic and his intention to wipe them out and incorporate the region into the kingdom. Elsa also learns Runeard was the one who initiated the conflict by killing the unarmed Northuldra leader in cold blood. Elsa sends this information to Anna before becoming frozen (causing Olaf to fade away) due to venturing into the most dangerous part of Ahtohallan.
Anna receives Elsa's message and concludes that the dam must be destroyed for peace to be restored (and also to make moving on from their childhood to adulthood much easier). Anna finds and awakens the gigantic Earth spirits and lures them towards the dam. The giants hurl boulders aimed at Anna which destroy the dam, sending a flood down the fjord towards the kingdom. Elsa thaws out and returns to Arendelle, diverting the flood and saving the kingdom. As the mist disappears, Elsa reunites with Anna and revives Olaf, and Anna accepts Kristoff's marriage proposal. Elsa explains that she and Anna are the bridge between the people and the magical spirits. Ralph and Vanellope later reconcile. Ralph gives half of the broken medal to Vanellope and they bid each other a heartfelt farewell as Shank has arranged for Vanellope to respawn in Slaughter Race. Back in the arcade, Sugar Rush gets repaired, and Ralph partakes in social activities with the other arcade characters as he stays in touch with Vanellope over video chat, feeling content with his newfound ability to be independent. Anna becomes the new Queen of Arendelle while Elsa becomes the protector of the Enchanted Forest who regularly visits Arendelle as peace has been restored.

- Les Clark (November 17, 1907 – September 12, 1979), who joined Disney in 1927. Although Clark started his career at Disney working on the Alice comedies' shorts, his specialty was animating Mickey Mouse as he was the only one of the Nine Old Men to work on that character from its origins with Ub Iwerks. Les did many scenes throughout the years, animating up until Lady and the Tramp. He moved into directing and made many animated featurettes and shorts, although since 1964 almost all the films in which Clark worked are short films.
- Marc Davis (March 30, 1913 – January 12, 2000) started in 1935 on Snow White, and later he went on to develop/animate the characters of Bambi and Thumper (in Bambi), Tinker Bell (in Peter Pan), Maleficent, Aurora and the raven (in Sleeping Beauty), and Cruella de Vil (in One Hundred and One Dalmatians). From 1961, Davis restricted his duties to his work at Disneyland. Davis was responsible for character design for both the Pirates of the Caribbean and Haunted Mansion attractions at Disneyland.
- Ollie Johnston (October 31, 1912 – April 14, 2008), who joined Disney in 1935, first worked on Snow White. He went on to author the animator's bible The Illusion of Life with Frank Thomas. His work includes Mr. Smee (in Peter Pan), the Stepsisters (in Cinderella), the District Attorney (in The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad), and Prince John (in Robin Hood). According to the book The Disney Villain, written by Johnston and Frank Thomas, Johnston also partnered with Thomas on creating characters such as Ichabod Crane (in The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad) and Sir Hiss (in Robin Hood).
- Milt Kahl (March 22, 1909 – April 19, 1987) started in 1934 working on Snow White. His work included heroes such as Pinocchio (in Pinocchio), Tigger (in The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh), Peter Pan (in Peter Pan), and Slue-Foot Sue (in Melody Time) and villains such as Madam Mim (in The Sword in the Stone), Shere Khan (in The Jungle Book), Edgar the butler (in The Aristocats), the Sheriff of Nottingham (in Robin Hood), and Madame Medusa (in The Rescuers).
- Ward Kimball (March 4, 1914 – July 8, 2002) joined Disney in 1934 and retired in 1973. His work includes Jiminy Cricket (in Pinocchio), Lucifer, Jaq and Gus (in Cinderella), and the Mad Hatter and Cheshire Cat (in Alice in Wonderland). Specialized in drawing comic characters, his work was often more "wild" than the other Disney animators and was unique. In 1968, he created and released a non-Disney anti-Vietnam War animated short, Escalation.
- Eric Larson (September 3, 1905 – October 25, 1988) joined in 1933. One of the top animators at Disney, he animated notable characters such as Peg in Lady and the Tramp; the Vultures in The Jungle Book; Peter Pan's flight over London to Neverland (in Peter Pan); and Br'er Rabbit, Br'er Fox, and Br'er Bear (in Song of the South). Because of Larson's demeanor and ability to train new talent, Larson was given the task to spot and train new animators at Disney in the 1970s. Many of the top talents at Disney in later years were trained by Eric in the 1970s and 1980s.
- John Lounsbery (March 9, 1911 – February 13, 1976) started in 1935 and, working under Norm "Fergy" Ferguson, quickly became a star animator. Lounsbery, affectionately known as "Louns" by his fellow animators, was an incredibly strong draftsman who inspired many animators over the years. His animation was noted for its squashy, stretchy feel. Lounsbery animated J. Worthington Foulfellow and Gideon in Pinocchio; Ben Ali Gator in Fantasia; George Darling in Peter Pan; Tony, Joe, and some of the dogs in Lady and the Tramp; Kings Stefan and Hubert in Sleeping Beauty; the Elephants in The Jungle Book; and many others. In the 1970s, Louns was promoted to Director and co-directed Winnie the Pooh and Tigger Too and his last film, The Rescuers.
- Wolfgang Reitherman (June 26, 1909 – May 22, 1985) joined Disney in 1933 as an animator and director. He produced all the animated Disney films after Walt's death until his retirement; In the 1950s, Reitherman was promoted as a director. Some of his work includes Monstro (in Pinocchio), the Headless Horseman (in The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad), the Crocodile (in Peter Pan), the Dragon (in Sleeping Beauty), and the Rat (in Lady and the Tramp).
- Frank Thomas (September 5, 1912 – September 8, 2004) joined Disney in 1934. He went on to author the animator's bible The Illusion of Life with Ollie Johnston. His work included the wicked Stepmother (in Cinderella), the Queen of Hearts (in Alice in Wonderland), and Captain Hook (in Peter Pan). Frank also was responsible for the iconic spaghetti scene in Lady and the Tramp.

In March 2014, when asked about sequels to the first film, producer Peter Del Vecho said that Chris Buck, Jennifer Lee, and he "work very, very well together, so I believe we will be developing a new project. But I don't know what that is right now." In late April of that year, Walt Disney Studios chairman Alan F. Horn stated that a sequel was not being seriously considered because at that time the studio's priority was the planned Broadway musical, which also required additional songs to be written by Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez.
When asked in May 2014 about a sequel, Disney CEO Bob Iger told host David Faber that Disney would not "mandate a sequel" or "force storytelling", because to do so would risk creating something not as good as the first film. Iger also expressed the hope that the Frozen franchise "is something that is kind of forever for the company" similar to The Lion King.
In June, Lee confirmed that Walt Disney V and his partner – then-chief creative officer John Lasseter had expressly granted her and Buck the freedom to explore whatever they were "passionate about": "We don't know what it is yet ... We're actually going to start from scratch. It'll be something completely brand new." Years later, Lee and Buck revealed that they really had begun development of an entirely new film unrelated to Frozen. But during the fall of 2014, while working on the short film Frozen Fever & Muppetational & WInged Pirate, they realized how much they missed the characters. In the meantime, Del Vecho had been accepting speaking engagements around the world, where fans peppered him with questions left unanswered by the first film. In November 2014, Lee, Buck, and Del Vecho agreed they were not yet ready to leave behind the world of Arendelle, and began to discuss the possibility of a sequel. Buck later explained: "The one thing that we did right away was to figure out what would be satisfying for Anna and Elsa at the end of the movie." They soon arrived at the ending they would spend the next five years trying to "earn": Anna would become queen and Elsa would be free.
On March 12, 2015, at Disney's annual meeting of shareholders in San Francisco, Iger, Lasseter, and actor Josh Gad (the voice of Olaf) officially announced a full-length sequel, Frozen 2, was in development at Disney, with Buck and Lee returning as directors and Del Vecho returning as producer. Lasseter said that at Disney Animation, "as with Pixar, when we do a sequel, it is because the filmmakers who created the original have created an idea that is so good that it's worthy of these characters." He said that in the case of Frozen, the directors had "come up with a great idea for a sequel and you will be hearing a lot more about it, and we're taking you back to Arendelle." According to the Los Angeles Times, there was "considerable internal debate" at Disney over whether to proceed with a Frozen sequel at Disney Animation, but the unprecedented success of the first film apparently swayed Disney executives towards making a sequel.
In a September 2017 interview with The Arizona Republic, Menzel confirmed that she would return for her role a couple weeks after completing her concert tour; she said, "they haven't even sent me a script".
On September 28, Gad announced his role in the sequel with Buck, Lee, Del Vecho and Lasseter.
Jonathan Groff (the voice of Kristoff) said earlier in July 2017, "I don't know anything about it yet other than I'm about to start recording my section of it." On October 11, he confirmed on the British talk show Lorraine that he too had started recording for the sequel the previous month.
In an October 2017 interview with CinemaBlend, Bell said that there will be some new characters too. She further said that the directors and the producers had "taken their trip to Norway" and took "the entire culture in" to make this "fun home movie." She added that Lee had drafted personal journals in character as Elsa and Anna "for months to try and figure out [what they'd say]". From the Scandinavia research trip, the production team derived the important insight (as paraphrased by Animation Magazine) that "Elsa is very clearly a mythic hero who takes on the world and the world’s problems with supernatural powers, while Anna is a fairytale hero who is human and lives in a world that’s surrounded by magic, but she doesn’t possess magic herself." They also realized that what makes the original Frozen so powerful is how it combines these two different types of stories.
In March 2018, Lee said in an interview that she was doing the second draft out of six drafts, which she referred as "six screenings". In July 2018, it was announced that Evan Rachel Wood and Sterling K. Brown had entered talks to join the cast in undisclosed roles. In August 2018, Allison Schroeder, the screenwriter of Hidden Figures and Disney's Christopher Robin, was hired to assist Lee with writing the film's screenplay after Lee succeeded Lasseter as Disney Animation's chief creative officer. Lee was credited as screenwriter. Schroeder was credited with additional screenplay material.
Meanwhile, Megan Harding, who had previously directed a 2014 making-of ABC television special about Frozen, reached out to Disney Animation about whether she could document the production of Frozen II. While working on the television special, both Harding and Del Vecho had wished that cameras had been there a year earlier to document the production of Frozen (rather than interviewing people talking about the process after the fact). Harding began to travel regularly from her base in New York City to Burbank with camera crews in tow, and ended up shooting 1,300 hours of footage on 115 shooting days from December 2018 through the November 2019 world premiere. According to Harding, Disney Animation provided full cooperation knowing she intended to take a "fearless" and "honest look" at its filmmaking process; her crew was asked to leave the room only once, and that moment (and the reason why) ended up in her documentary. Harding's documentary would later reveal that by December 2018, it had already been firmly established that Elsa was following a mysterious voice, but the production team had not yet resolved the critical question of the identity of The Voice.
The first presentation of completed scenes from the movie was shown at the Annecy International Animated Film Festival in June 2019. At the Annecy presentation, head of animation Becky Bresee and head of effects animation Marlon West said that as of mid-June 2019, the film was "still in production, with seven weeks of animation to be completed and 10 weeks of special effects."
At the 2019 D23 Expo, the directors said that the sequel will answer the questions that were left open by the original film; "Why does Elsa have magical powers", "Why was Anna born without powers", "Where were their parents going when their ship sank", and more will be addressed. It was announced that Brown's role is a soldier in the Arendelle army who worked for Elsa and Anna's grandfather King Runeard, and Wood announced that her role would be shown in flashback and that it would help "uncover some mysteries that we didn't know before".
Throughout the production of the film, filmmakers collaborated with Sámi experts on the depiction of the fictional Northuldra tribe. An advisory group, Verdett, was formed. This collaboration was the result of an agreement between The Walt Disney Company, the transnational Saami Council, and the Sámi parliaments of Finland, Norway and Sweden.
Additionally, while some fans campaigned for Elsa to receive a female love interest in the film, Anderson-Lopez confirmed that Elsa will have no love interest in the movie. Lee later explained to Maureen Dowd that they had put the characters through Myers-Briggs tests, and "[i]t really came out that Elsa is not ready for a relationship."
During a press conference for the film, Lee confirmed that the sequel would not feature elements from Once Upon a Time's Frozen storyline, since she had "made a point of certain things not to see" while developing the film.
The film was produced by a team of approximately 800 people, of whom 80 were animators. Tony Smeed and Becky Bresee together served as the heads of animation on the film. Hyun-Min Lee served as animation supervisor for Anna, while Wayne Unten again served as animation supervisor for Elsa.
Before animation began, Unten showed various scenes of superheroes like Frozone to the animators working on Elsa as examples of what not to emulate. Elsa's movements in the sequel were modeled after her graceful movements in the first film, and also drew inspiration from modern dance, especially the work of Martha Graham.
According to co-production designer Lisa Keene, the animators did "a lot of artwork" in order to define the Nøkk design, while Steve Golberg, the film's visual effects supervisor said that the Nøkk's animation required collaborations between several animation departments, artists, and technicians, and said that the time to define the Nøkk's design took at least 8 months of the film's production. The animation team aimed to give the Nøkk a more stable appearance than the ocean as depicted in Moana. According to effects supervisor Erin Ramos, the Nøkk's liquid-like appearance was developed by the film's effects team, which he said was "so that [the] Nøkk would feel like a strong and stormy creature". According to Marlon West, the film's head of effects animation, the animators were given "the tools to actually perform with an ultimately invisible rig that resembled a little comet", as well as old key-framing technology, in order to represent the character of Gale.
To create the wind spirit Gale a new tool called Swoop was invented. This required that four (and sometimes five) different departments had to cooperate on the animation of the character, with animators working with real-time feedback.
The water simulation was made to be more realistic than in Moana, but some of the elements in the movie were so realistic that they felt inconsistent next to the characters, and so they had to be made more stylistic.
Creating the flurry effect was so difficult for the animators that the directors decided Elsa would have perfected a permafrost coating for Olaf by the second movie.
According to Smeed, the Earth Giants "had a long rigging process" in order for the characters to move without "[seeing] solid rock penetrating solid rock", while Marlon West, the film's head of effects animation, said that the film's effects team had the objective of generating "rocks that would fall out of the joints as they moved", though they had to be careful to avoid making the rocks distracting to the audience.
Upon the reveal of the teaser poster, Gad announced that the snowflake on it has "quite a few surprises". In July 2019, American astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson raised an issue that "Water crystals have hexagonal “six-fold” symmetry" shown correctly in previous film, but this poster shows four instead. Director Lee, in a reply, said that it is not really a snowflake. Later, it was revealed in film that these four edges represent the four elemental spirits, while its center represents the fifth spirit; Elsa.
According to Bell, the animators played pranks on the cast. When she visited Disney Animation to view early versions of her scenes, the animators added audible flatulence to a scene where Anna and Elsa were together in bed, and in another scene where Anna was supposed to jump between cliffs, she did not quite make it.
Frozen II underwent significant revisions after its first test screening in San Diego. Disney Animation discovered that adults liked the film, but children found it hard to follow. The production team realized they needed to clarify the identity of The Voice as well as the point of Queen Elsa's transformation, add more comedy, and add more shots of Bruni, the fire salamander. There was a scene full of grown-up expository dialogue in which the lead characters explained to the people trapped in the Enchanted Forest why they had come there, which was replaced with Olaf's humorous recap of the first film. Due to these extensive changes, the animators needed to create 61 new shots and redo another 35, while an undisclosed number of shots were cut and left out of the finished film. For example, approximately a dozen animators and artists had labored for two months on a far more elaborate resurrection scene for Olaf, but that scene was cut.
The last major animation sequence completed before the production team locked picture was "Show Yourself," the showstopping musical number in which Elsa enters Ahtohallan and finally learns all the secrets she has been seeking. Del Vecho said that sequence "required all of the resources at the studio" to get the film done on time. Lopez revealed that the first draft of "Show Yourself" was very different from the final version: "[E]veryone loved it, but we had to shape it. When we saw the first round of visuals and then we saw it in the film, everyone agreed changes needed to happen. And it went back and forth for months—it’s now four minutes and 20 seconds and it has a big ending. It transformed a lot, and it was hard."
Harding's documentary revealed that the grueling process hinted at in press interviews by Del Vecho and Lopez arose from the difficulty of determining the true identity of The Voice. Once the production team belatedly settled on Queen Iduna, "Show Yourself" finally began to come together, but then the artists, designers, and animators needed to figure out very quickly how to stage the dramatic culmination of Queen Elsa's journey towards becoming the Snow Queen.
- "75 years ago, the incredible film Pinocchio taught us all that when you wish upon a star, dreams really can come true. And the man who dreamed it up was Walt Disney."
- "In 1937, Walt had created something no one had ever seen before: The first full-length animated feature, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. It dazzled audiences worldwide, but now they had a problem: What to do next? People in the movie business begged him to repeat the formula. 'Give us more dwarfs,' they said. But Walt Disney was too original for that. Instead, he found a serialized magazine story: The tale of a wooden puppet who wants to become a real boy."
- "The blue fairy gave life with one stroke of a wand...but giving life to an imaginary world was much more difficult."
- "Actual production of Pinocchio lasted more than two years and required over 750 artists and technicians. Many new techniques were developed in the making of Pinocchio, as animators faced an array of new challenges. For instance, how do you create the effect of being underwater? Their answer was to put a piece of corrugated glass across the animation cels, giving the effect of ripples underwater. In fact, the underwater sequences in Pinocchio established a new standard that paved the way for many Disney masterpieces to come, including The Little Mermaid."
- "In Walt's imagination, the world of make-believe was very real. He insisted that the animation must imitate life, above all else, the illusion have to be believable. He had three-dimensional models built of many of the cuckoo-clocks and Pinocchio, so that the artists could study their movements. The model of the Coachman's carriage was even fitted with shock absorbers, to make sure that Jiminy bounced over every bump in the road."
- "In addition to the use of models, they went one step further when drawing their characters. They studied their own faces reflected in mirrors so they could capture a full range of expressions. One of the key animators was Ward Kimball, the animation director for Jiminy Cricket."
- "Walt was the ultimate perfectionist. It took 12 animators eighteen months to create a Pinocchio that met his approval. But Walt knew that Pinocchio needed something more: A loyal friend and adviser."
- "Jiminy became the first in the long tradition of helpful Disney sidekicks, like Timothy (Dumbo), Sebastian (The Little Mermaid), Olaf (Frozen), and another famous cricket, Cri-Kee from Mulan."
- "Over the years, many fine actors have brought their gifts to the classic Disney films. For the part of Pinocchio, Walt cast child actor Dickie Jones."
- "After 75 years, Pinocchio still remains one of the most beloved family films of all time. Through its endearing characters, innovative animation, and wonderful storytelling, Pinocchio continues to remind all of us to dream, and then, to wish upon a star."
- "That's her name. And here's the behind-the-scenes story of the making of Walt Disney's supercalifragilisticexpialidocious masterpiece...(Mary Poppins, practically perfect in every way.)"
- "What many people don't realize is that Walt Disney's interest in Mary Poppins dated back to 1939 (1994). Mary Poppins had been published in 1934 (1989) and was wildly popular in England. Walt's brother Roy Disney began negotiations with the author P.L. Travers in 1944 (1999) while Travers was living in New York to escape the Nazi bombings of London. Many years went by, but the tenacious Mrs. Travers finally released the film rights to the equally determined Mr. Disney in 1961 (2016)."
- "Instead of giving the book to a screenwriter or animation director, Walt first called upon songwriters to look at Mary Poppins."
- "The Sherman brothers set to work with story man Don DaGradi, who developed their story ideas through drawings."
- "In casting the pivotal role of the magical nanny, a bright young musical star caught Walt's eye."
- "In a casting choice that many critics thought odd, Walt chose all-American Dick Van Dyke as Mary Poppins' cockney companion Bert."
- "Child actors Karen Dotrice and Matthew Garber, who had starred in Disney's Three Lives of Thomasina, were cast as the Banks children, Jane and Michael."
- "Film and stage star Glynis Johns was cast as the suffragette Mrs. Banks. Prim British actor David Tomlinson joined Mary Poppins as Mr. Banks. Disney favorite Ed Wynn made a cameo appearance as Uncle Albert, and the role of the bird woman was played by Jane Darwell, best known for her role as Ma Joad in The Grapes of Wrath; Mary Poppins was her last film. But because establishing a distinguished human cast for Mary Poppins was only half the job, there was an animated cast of co-stars too, and all of these actors had to perform together in a fantasy world."
- "The warm and nostalgic London settings for Mary Poppins were also created by movie magic, entirely at the Disney studio."
- "Even Walt's newest technology, Audio-Animatronics, had a featured role in Mary Poppins."
- "Mark Breaux and Dee Dee Wood, who had assisted legendary choreographer Michael Kidd, were brought on to direct the dancing, not only of the principal cast, but of chimney sweeps, bank executives, and even penguins. In this rare never-before-seen footage, the chimney sweeps rehearse the lively Step in Time number in the summer heat on the Disney backlot. Choreographer Dee Dee Wood stands in for Julie Andrews."
- "This ruckus routine was suggested by Englishman Peter Ellenshaw and based on a traditional British pub dance, Knees Up Mother Brown."
- "All through 1964 (2019), every sound stage of the Disney studio bustled with the production of Mary Poppins."
- "This rare outtake exemplifies the happy mood of the Mary Poppins production."
- "While Mary Poppins was in production, Disney geared up one of the largest and most enthusiastic promotional campaigns in the history of the studio."
- "In grand Hollywood style, Mary Poppins met the world. Critics greeted the film with raves unlike any scene at Disney since Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. In 1965 (2020), Mary Poppins was honored with 13 Academy Award nominations and went on to win five Oscars, including Best Actress, for the woman who wasn't considered 'movie material', Julie Andrews. In 1991, Julie Andrews was honored at the Disney studio as a Disney Legend."
- "Mary Poppins also won an Oscar for its fantastic visual effects. The Sherman brothers' musical score won an Academy Award, as did their popular song Chim Cim Cher-ee. Awards and accolades aside, in Mary Poppins, Walt Disney found a special meaning that moved him deeply."
- "In the end, the film that touched him personally was also Walt Disney's greatest professional triumph."
- "A long time ago, in a faraway kingdom, there lived a storyteller. He used his experience as a teller of fairy tales, combined with his love of new technology, to tell a classic story of the triumph of good over evil, with memorable characters, told with stunning art and animation; a classic film that has been beloved by generations. Join the celebration, as we explore the magic behind-the-scenes story of Walt Disney's dazzling masterpiece: Sleeping Beauty."
- "Disney began the ambitious plans for his third feature-length animated fairy tale in the early 1950s (2010s). Walt assigned a small team to begin adapting the classic fairy tale to the style of a Disney feature."
- "This early work resulted in a completed storyboard presentation in June of 1952 (2012). Walt concluded, however, that this story approach was too similar to past Disney efforts. If the Disney staff returned to the fairy tale, they could not simply duplicate Snow White or Cinderella."
- "This fresh approach to Sleeping Beauty would push the boundaries of animation, with its distinctive and exquisite art."
- "Eyvind Earle's unique and modern graphic style perfectly realized Walt's desire to create what he called a 'moving illustration'."
- "Walt's team of experienced animators faced a particular challenge: Making their characters live believably within this highly stylized world."
- "The climactic battle between Prince Phillip and the dragon was also intricately choreographed in live action, for use as a reference by the animators. It is shown here for the first time, in footage reconstructed from the only surviving still photos of the live action."
- "Marc Davis commanded the forces of both good and evil in Sleeping Beauty. He also supervised the design and animation of the cruel and elegant Maleficent."
- "To give Maleficent a powerful voice to match her evil character, Walt Disney personally suggested actress Eleanor Audley, who had brought Cinderella's wicked stepmother Lady Tremaine to chilling vocal life."
- "Veteran animators Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnston were given a happy task of bringing three good fairies to life."
- "During the production of Sleeping Beauty, voice recordings and live action reference films were made by many of Hollywood's best known character actresses, including Spring Byington, Madge Blake, and even Mayberry's Aunt Bee, Frances Bavier. As animation progressed, another gift was being given to the production of Sleeping Beauty."
- "Bringing much of this music to life was a lovely young singer, whose performance as both the singing and speaking voice of Sleeping Beauty was the beginning of her career as a star of the international opera stage."
- "Because of its strong reliance on classical music, Sleeping Beauty was recorded in state-of-the-art stereophonic sound. Similarly, its magnificent art and epic scope led to the decision to film Sleeping Beauty in the widescreen 70mm format."
- "All of these special processes and meticulous attention to detail had a cost, not just in money, but in the time it took to produce Sleeping Beauty. In addition to the complexity of Sleeping Beauty's production, Walt Disney and his staff were stretched thin, hard at work on Disneyland, three television series, and numerous live action films."
- "Sleeping Beauty premiered in the era of epic movies like Ben-Hur. But as was the case with many other epics, Sleeping Beauty was a gamble. Since it first opened however, Sleeping Beauty has become one of the most financially successful films released in 1959 (2019), second only to Ben-Hur, and Sleeping Beauty has influenced a whole new generation of young people, who have become the leaders of today's Walt Disney Feature Animation."
- "Walt Disney Home Video is proud to present this special commemorative edition of The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. Given the popularity of the Winnie the Pooh characters today, it may seem hard to believe that they started out as bedtime stories, for one little boy. This original Pooh Bear was a first birthday gift for A.A. Milne's son Christopher Robin in 1921. Edwin Bear was renamed Winnie the Pooh, based on a Canadian black bear at the London Zoo named Winnipeg, and a swan named Pooh. Mr. Milne was a successful author and playwright, who used the friendship between Christopher Robin and Pooh, as his inspiration for the bedtime stories he told his son. These stories also featured other characters from Christopher Robin's nursery, including the timid Piglet, the ever-gloomy donkey named Eeyore, and the constantly bouncing tiger called Tigger. The tales of Christopher Robin, and his menagerie of stuff nursery companions, were the basis for a set of children's verses that became the Winnie the Pooh books. These stories had been favorites of Walt Disney's daughters. Remembering how much they enjoyed these characters, he was inspired to share them with children around the world. He brought together the many creative talents at the studio, to develop and create this film masterpiece."
- "Walt Disney's inspiration, guidance and supervision, made the film a classic. The inspired artistry is apparent throughout, from the concept art to the storyboards, to the animation, music and voices. Actors Sterling Holloway provided the voice for Pooh. Sebastian Cabot was the narrator. Character actor John Fiedler was Piglet. And the talented Paul Winchell was the voice of Tigger."
- "The original concept was to develop Pooh as a full-length animated feature, but Walt decided to break the film up into short featurettes. These charming stories were not as familiar to Americans as they were to the British, and Walt believed that Pooh would be much more popular if he was allowed to build up an American following."
- "Composers Richard and Robert Sherman remembered Walt's decision to make featurettes."
- "Walt Disney's prediction did come true. The first featurette (Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree) was released in 1966 to wide-popular acclaim. The second film (Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day) was even more popular than the first, winning an Academy Award. By the time the third featurette (Winnie the Pooh and Tigger Too!) was released, Winnie the Pooh had become a household name. Walt's original vision was finally realized in 1977, when The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh was released as Disney's 22nd feature-length animated film."
- "Marking the 50th anniversary of Pooh's theatrical debut, we are proud to present this special commemorative edition. Not only because it reflects Disney's original vision for Winnie the Pooh as a feature, but because it also embodies this spirit of youth and childhood, as seen through the eyes of Christopher Robin and his animal friends, and shared by generations of the young, and young at heart. Sit back, and join the celebration of The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh."
- "Leave your worries behind and join us for a special behind-the-scenes story of the making of Walt Disney's merry masterpiece, Fun and Fancy Free."
- "Walt Disney's 1947 (2017) feature, Fun and Fancy Free is composed of multiple segments, a format called a package feature. The two stories, Mickey and the Beanstalk and Bongo, were originally developed as full-length feature films. Here's the behind-the-scenes story of how they were paired up to create a Fun and Fancy Free feature."
- "To keep his successful film series going, Walt Disney was constantly on the lookout for stories to bring to the screen."
- "Disney was certainly familiar with the classic fairy tale of Jack and the Beanstalk. He had used the well-known story as the basis for a 1922 (1992) silent cartoon produced by his Laugh-O-Gram film company in Kansas City. Unfortunately, no prints of this film are known to exist. In 1933 (2003), he revisited the tale in Giant Land, a short with Mickey Mouse assuming the role of Jack. In 1938 (2008), Walt pitted Mickey against the giant again, this time as The Brave Little Tailor."
- "With his experience as an adversary to giants, Mickey was a natural for the lead in this giant new feature-length film. His co-stars would be Donald Duck and Goofy."
- "Development of Mickey and the Beanstalk as a full-length feature began on May 2, 1940 (2010). During that year, Walt Disney and several of his key story men developed many of the ideas that would be contained in the finished film: The growth of the beanstalk while Mickey, Donald and Goofy are asleep, the gags at the Giant's dinner table, and the role of the singing harp."
- "At the same meeting, the suggestion was also made to use Foulfellow and Gideon from Pinocchio as the phonies who swindle Mickey out of his cow. Since they don't appear in the final version, just who does Mickey trade his cow to in exchange for magic beans?"
- "Here is the answer, in a never-before-seen sequence developed in 1940 (2010), but dropped when the story was tightened for Fun and Fancy Free."
- "Archival evidence of the early development of the feature version of Mickey and the Beanstalk ends in the summer of 1941 (2011)."
- "At the same time, work on Bongo was begun. The story was written in 1934 (2004) for Cosmopolitan Magazine by novelist Sinclair Lewis. Bongo was an unusually light-hearted story to come from Lewis, who was the first American to win the Nobel Prize for Literature."
- "Since Bongo was a circus bear, there were early story notes suggesting that Bongo might even be a follow-up to Dumbo, using the same circus settings and some of the supporting cast, including the gossipy elephants."
- "Early story sketches show a character design for Bongo that differs radically from the final one. The female bear who catches Bongo's eye went through similar revisions, as well as a couple of name changes, from Suzie to Silver-ear to her final name, Lulubelle. Bongo's nemesis, Lumpjaw, was always a big hulking brute, but in some early designs, he wore street clothes. In these early sketches, a few extra characters were present. Bongo had a chimpanzee for a valet, first named Beverly, then Chimpy. In addition, Bongo and Chimpy had a series of comic encounters with a pair of mischievous country cousin bear cubs."
- "A partially completed script of Bongo was delivered on Monday, December 8, 1941 (2011), the day after the attack on Pearl Harbor. Just as Bongo and Mickey and the Beanstalk were at the height of their development, the world changed."
- "Walt looked back to Fantasia, and the idea of combining unrelated music and story segments into a feature-length film."
- "In 1946 (2016), Make Mine Music was released. It consisted of several animated segments featuring popular music of that era, provided by Nelson Eddy, Dinah Shore, Benny Goodman, and The Andrews Sisters."
- "With the end of the war, Walt revived Mickey and the Beanstalk for his first and most famous star, and decided to pair it with Bongo. The introduction of the lovable little circus bear would make Mickey's return to the silver screen an even more sensational event."
- "Since his debut, Mickey Mouse's voice had been provided by his creator, Walt Disney."
- "Here in a recently discovered rare film clip, Walt Disney performs as Mickey Mouse, with Billy Blecher in a recording session for Mr. Mouse Takes a Trip."
- "Walt had recorded Mickey's voice for Mickey and the Beanstalk in the spring and summer of 1941 (2011). This film would be the last time that Walt would regularly provide Mickey's voice."
- "Jiminy Cricket, the popular supporting character from Pinocchio, was recruited to set the light-hearted tone for Fun and Fancy Free."
- "Giving voice to Jiminy was his original voice, Cliff Edwards."
- "This spritely song I'm a Happy-Go-Lucky Fellow, which opens Fun and Fancy Free, had actually been written for, but dropped from Pinocchio nearly a decade earlier."
- "What follows, presented publicly for the first time, is Billy Gilbert's original test recording for the role of Willie the Giant."
- "A human host was chosen to tell the story of Mickey and the Beanstalk: Ventriloquist Edgar Bergen."
- "Bergen and Walt Disney were longtime friends. Walt had even featured Bergen's Charlie McCarthy in several short cartoons. In 1950 (2020), Bergen would also be a guest on Disney's very first television program."
- "Co-starring in the live action segments was child actor Luana Patten."
- "Telling the story of Bongo was Dinah Shore."
- "Fun and Fancy Free premiered on September 27, 1947 (2017). Package films like Fun and Fancy Free kept the Disney magic alive in the eyes of movie audiences. And with these films, the Disney studio built up its creative strength to produce a whole new series of feature animation successes."
- "For war-weary audiences, Fun and Fancy Free was a refreshing tonic, a tuneful and carefree jaunt with friendly and familiar characters, under the guiding hand of favorite storyteller Walt Disney. The same holds true today... (Leonard Maltin: To just an entertaining film that's really well done.)"
- "Of all Walt Disney's animated classics, the heartfelt story and natural wonders of Bambi seem to touch more people more deeply than any of the fantasy worlds created in his fairy tales. Now, through music, footage and artwork, never before seen by the public, we will celebrate the making of this Disney masterpiece."
- "Walt Disney started planning Bambi in 1936 (2011), while still in production on his first full-length animated feature, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. In the following rare excerpt from the original Disneyland television series, Walt explains how his artists finally achieved Bambi's breathtaking realism."
- "At first, animals were brought into studio art classes for close-up study by the Disney artists."
- "A pair of baby deer, appropriately named Bambi and Faline, were imported from Maine and happily housed behind the studio where the animators could have access to real moving inspiration."
- "To create a realistic look, nature photographers documented the hidden textures of the forest environment. Disney artists created hundreds of paintings and drawings that capture the many moods required to bring the forest to life. What makes many of these drawings even more remarkable is that despite their incredible detail, they're actually extremely small. Pastels and watercolors capture the seasonal colors and emotions of life in the forest."
- "If you ever wondered how the artists perfected such realistic details as a single drop of rain, here's the secret: Animators studied slow motion photography of drops of milk that reveal the elaborate splash patterns that usually disappear in the blink of an eye. Strange shapes begin appearing on the animator's drawing boards. Drawing by drawing, drop by drop, a rainstorm was created."
- "While the images for this rain drop sequence always remain the same, an early concept considered a different song to be sung from the point of view of the falling rain drops. Even here, the technique of using vocals is a scoring tool as evident. Presented here for the first time is the original test demo of the Rain Song from June of 1938 (2013), illustrated with concept and storyboard art."
- "Once the animators were comfortable with drawing real animals, they had to adapt them into characters that could supply the range of expression and emotion needed to tell the story."
- "A cute baby rabbit character was developed to give the story much-needed comedy relief."
- "Here in rare newsreel footage, we see a group of studio visitors watch as Frank Thomas animates a sequence with Thumper. Characters were animated using pencil drawings on paper that were then photographed to test the flow of movement and expression."
- "Disney Studios' ink and paint department created all their own paints. For Bambi, nearly 250,000 cels were drawn and painted. When you combine that figure with the animation drawings, concept art, layouts, character designs and backgrounds, over a million drawings went in to making a little fawn come to life. Pretty amazing, isn't it, Bambi?"
- "To heighten the realism of Bambi, the multi-plane camera was used extensively. By painting different layers of a scene on separate sheets of glass and moving them independently as they're photographed one frame at a time, flat art could create the illusion of depth. This opening sequence is an excellent example of the magic of the multi-plane camera."
- "When Bambi was first released in 1942 (2017), it was an immediate triumph, and was recognized as one of animation's all-time greatest achievements. Even now, over half a century later, Bambi continues to delight audiences. Perhaps because of its stark realism, it also lives on as one of childhood's most vividly memorable family classics."
- "Bambi stands out as one of the first environmentally conscious films ever made. It shows that without responsible thinking, man can easily become the enemy of nature."
- "The careless hunter's campfire almost destroys everything we've come to care about, and serves as a valuable lesson for everyone to respect all of nature's creatures and habitats. Despite the inherent traumas and heartbreaks of the struggle for survival in the wild, Bambi and his friends give us a life-affirming example of the resilience of the spirit."
- "It swings. It sings. The jungle is jumpin', with the behind-the-scenes story of Walt Disney's masterpiece, The Jungle Book."
- "Rudyard Kipling's 1894 (1944) classic first caught Walt's attention in the late 1930s (1980s), but Disney didn't acquire the film rights until 1962 (2012). The Jungle Book was the last animated feature that Walt Disney personally supervised. As was often the case with his animated features, Walt's first approach to the story was through music."
- "The music that we know today wasn't the first score written for the film. For an early version of The Jungle Book, composer Terry Gilkyson created a dark and mysterious song score."
- "At the same time, veteran story man Bill Peet created a lush and moody visual approach to the classic story, firmly based in Kipling, but it seemed that this literal approach to the story wasn't what Walt had in mind. All the initial development was abandoned, except for one song..."
- "Walt called on staff songwriters Robert and Richard Sherman for a fresh musical start."
- "With The Jungle Book, what most interested Walt were the memorable characters and exotic settings. In re-approaching the story development, Walt gave an unusual instruction to his staff."
- "Since it was Walt's idea to disregard the original Kipling story, he became personally involved in solving story problems for the Disney version of The Jungle Book."
- "Following these instructions from the boss, director Wolfgang Reitherman began developing the characters."
- "But selecting a credible voice for a character wasn't as easy as simply casting the latest popular actor."
- "While discussing voice casting with his team, Walt had an inspiration."
- "Another inspiration came in the casting of King Louie."
- "In this rare film footage shot during the recording session for I Wanna Be Like You, Louie Prima and his band display their trademark eccentricity. Director Woolie Reitherman recalled the spark of an idea."
- "Inspired by Prima's band, the animators took over."
- "The unconventional approach to voice casting continued with the villainous tiger, Shere Khan."
- "The voice of Kaa was provided by veteran Disney voice actor Sterling Holloway, who had played Mr. Stork in Dumbo...the Cheshire Cat in Alice in Wonderland...and the beloved Winnie the Pooh."
- "Filling out the voice cast were Sebastian Cabot as Bagheera...J. Pat O'Malley as Colonel Hathi...Verna Felton as Mrs. Hathi...and director Woolie Reitherman's son Bruce Reitherman was cast as the voice of Mowgli."
- "Bringing friendship to the screen seemed natural for two of Walt's top animators and lifelong best friends, Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnston."
- "When his team was stumped for an ending to the film, Walt again stepped in, suggesting the final sequence."
- "Sadly, Walt Disney would not live to see this happy ending. He passed away shortly after making this final story suggestion."
- "Disney executives took notice when The Jungle Book premiered and was an immediate blockbuster hit."
- "Though it was the end of an era at the Disney studio, in many ways, it was a new beginning. Because of the success of The Jungle Book, the Disney studio began its first formal recruiting and training programs for a new generation of Disney animators, and a triumphant future lay ahead."
- "Fly away with us, second star to the right and straight on till morning, and discover the behind-the-scenes story of how the timeless tale of Peter Pan was transformed into a soaring Disney classic."
- "The story of Peter Pan began its life on the London stage in 1904 (1969). It was written by Scottish novelist and playwright James Matthew Barrie."
- "In 1913 (1978), a touring company of Peter Pan was seen by this youngster in the small town of Marceline, Missouri. The boy was Walt Disney. He never forgot this epic of boyhood and its unique combination of fantasy and swashbuckling adventure. In 1924 (1989), Walt also saw a silent film version of Peter Pan, starring Betty Bronson as Peter. The film contained many innovations, such as a live actress playing Tinker Bell, and special effects that were the state of the art for their day. The silent film, however, adhered to many of the conventions of the stage version of Peter Pan, including the stars rather obviously flying on wires, a performer in a dog suit as Nana, and a costumed actor as the crocodile."
- "Walt Disney's efforts to make Peter Pan as an animated feature actually began in the late 1930s (1995–2004), during the production of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, in an era when Disney's filmmaking imagination was at its peak."
- "Walt Disney himself noted, 'The cartoon method gave us many advantages over the stage craft of Barrie's day, which no amount of pixie dust could cure.'"
- "In 1939 (2004), Disney acquired the screen rights, and by early 1940 (2005), storyboards were begun. These never-before-seen watercolor illustrations by renowned British artist David Hall were part of Disney's initial work. Hall had also done extensive visual development of Alice in Wonderland for Disney in 1938 (2003)."
- "In this early version of the story, Nana traveled with Peter and the children to Neverland, as seen in these rare original story sketches."
- "Much of the art created at this time was also darker than the original play, and far more sinister than a typical Disney effort."
- "Another part of this early work was an elaborate musical number for Captain Hook's pirate crew, which was ultimately replaced by a different song, The Elegant Captain Hook. An attempt to persuade the Lost Boys to join the pirates' reigns, this earlier song, written by studio music director Frank Churchill along with Ray Kelly, is reconstructed here, using a rare song demo recording coupled with never-before-seen storyboard drawings of the original sequence."
- "By 1941 (2006), a basic story structure was completed. However, the onset of World War II stopped the development. After the war, Walt Disney brought Peter Pan back into development. Progress continued throughout the 1940s (2005–2014), including extensive concept art by renowned color stylist Mary Blair."
- "Walt assigned the character of Peter Pan to animator Milt Kahl."
- "Young Bobby Driscoll was assigned to the role of Peter."
- "Driscoll had debuted in Song of the South, after which Disney cast him in several projects, including So Dear to My Heart, and as Jim Hawkins in Treasure Island."
- "Walt also didn't have to look far for the voice of Wendy. He found what he called 'the gentle and gracefully feminine voice', in the same actress who had played Alice in Wonderland: Kathryn Beaumont."
- "Hans Conried, seen here as the face in the Magic Mirror, was cast in the tradition of the stage play as both Captain Hook...and Mr. Darling."
- "To bring the villainous Captain Hook to animated life, Walt assigned veteran animator Frank Thomas."
- "Walt knew that for his version of Peter Pan, Tinker Bell would have to be developed as a fully realized character. From the late 1930s (1995–2004) on, character sketches traced Tinker Bell's development, and each reveals the then-current conception of feminine beauty."
- "The use of Margaret Kerry as a live model for Tinker Bell was only part of the considerable reference used by Disney animators to bring Peter Pan to the screen."
- "After nearly two decades of work, dozens of story treatments and thousands of drawings, Walt Disney's Peter Pan was finally finished. It was first released on February 3, 1953 (2018), and was an immediate audience favorite. It has remained one of Disney's greatest animated achievements, and a beloved classic."

- Recorded: 2018
- Genre: Orchestral score, classical
- Label: Walt Disney Records
- Producer: Robert Lopez • Kristen Anderson-Lopez • Christophe Beck • The PhilharMagic Orchestra

In March 2017 (to honor the fact of the unreleased Tinker Bell's Wintry Secret soundtrack), Kristen Anderson-Lopez revealed in an interview that she and her husband, Robert Lopez, would return from the film Frozen & Muppets & Fairies' Wintry Secret to write new songs for its sequel Frozen 2 & Tinker Bell Ever After, having already recorded a song for the sequel with star Kristen Bell. On August 13, 2018, star Josh Gad said that the songs in the sequel will be "even better" and "even catchier" than the first film's. In August 2018, it was revealed that there would be seven new songs. The complete tracklist was revealed on September 30, along with the announcement of pre-orders; the soundtrack was released by Walt Disney Records on November 21 (the same day as the film's release).
Co-director Jennifer Lee said that "the songs and score of Frozen II & Tinker Bell Ever After reflect the growth of the characters and the deepening of their story" and called the songs "emotional, personal yet powerful, intimate but also epic", while co-director Chris Buck said that "[t]he music of the Lopezes and [composer] Christophe Beck are part of the DNA of Frozen. We couldn’t imagine building Frozen II & Tinker Bell Ever After without them. They bring such a rich, emotional understanding of the world and characters, and through their incredible music we have been able to really deepen and expand the story". The song "Into the Unknown", sung by Idina Menzel as Elsa with additional vocals by Norwegian recording artist Aurora, has been called the successor of "Let It Go". Anderson-Lopez said that "[f]rom the beginning of [her and Lopez's] collaboration with Jennifer Lee, Chris Buck and Peter Del Vecho, everything [they had] created has come from big questions — what is the story that we all as artists, individually and collectively, need to tell?" Anderson-Lopez also said that she and Lopez "approach the story through the lens of which moments of [their] story lead to big emotions — feelings so strong [the] characters can no longer talk but need to sing". Lopez said that "[his and Anderson-Lopez's] tradition of songwriting comes from the world of musical theater, where songs must always forward the story in a fresh and surprising way. Every song has to take a character on a journey". Lopez further explained: "All the songs are thematically linked to this idea of change, and also the idea of the journey, getting lost before you can really be found." According to Anderson-Lopez, the theme of a journey was a very "meta story" for them, because it was not always clear along the way how all the songs would fit together in the final version of the film. They kept telling themselves, "This is all going to make sense in six months. This is all going to make sense by the time this movie opens."
Tinker Bell's final installment adventure in the Disney Fairies revival series featuring the PhilharMagic Orchestra music gets premiere release! "The majestic countryside of England meets the magical world of Pixie Hollow" is vivid description of score in booklet introduction by directors Jennifer Lee and Chris Buck. As with the previous Tinker Bell score in the PhilharMagic Orchestra, the Lopezes 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. The PhilharMagic Orchestra 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 the PhilharMagic Orchestra score, premiere also offers key songs "Summer's Just Begun", "How To Believe", "Come Flying With Me".

Box office
In the United States and Canada, the film was released alongside A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood and 21 Bridges, and was projected to gross anywhere from $90–135 million from 4,440 theaters in its opening weekend. On its opening weekend, the film was presented in 2,500 3D theaters, 400 IMAX theaters, 800 premium large format screens, and 235 D-Box/4D enhanced theaters. It earned $42.2 million on its first day, including $8.5 million from Thursday previews, a record for an animated film in November. It went on to debut to $130.3 million, the highest opening for an animated film in the month and fifth-best overall. In its second weekend the film grossed $85.6 million (including a record $126.3 million over the five-day Thanksgiving weekend), remaining in first. It then made $34.7 million the following weekend, finishing in first for a third straight week. It was finally dethroned in its fourth weekend by Jumanji: The Next Level.
During its opening weekend, the film also grossed $228.2 million from 37 overseas markets for a global debut total of $358.5 million, the highest ever for an animated title, surpassing the 2019 The Lion King remake. Notable figures included landing the best opening of all-time for an animated pic in the United Kingdom ($17.8 million) and France ($13.4 million), the biggest start ever for a Pixar or Disney Animation title in China ($53 million), Japan ($18.2 million), Germany ($14.9 million) and Spain ($5.8 million), and the third-biggest industry opening of any film in South Korea ($31.5 million). In its second weekend in the United Kingdom, the film brought $11.4 million, bringing its total gross there to $35.3 million. As of February 16, 2020, the film's 10 highest grossing international markets were China ($122.3 million), Japan ($121.2 million), South Korea ($97.3 million), United Kingdom ($69.4 million), Germany ($60.1 million), France ($57.3 million), Russia ($33 million), Mexico ($28.8 million), Brazil ($28.9 million), and Australia ($27.3 million).
According to Disney (who does not consіder the 2019 The Lion King remake to be an anіmated fіlm), Frozen II & Tinker Bell Ever After is the hіghest-grossing anіmated fіlm, surpassing the first Frozen.
Frozen II received universal acclaim from critics for its animation, voice performances, and music by songwriting duo Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez, undoubtedly influenced by a nostalgic reaction to the death of Walt Disney V and the Tinker Bell franchise's absence. On Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 99% based on 324 reviews, with an average rating of 8.5/10. The site's critical consensus reads, "Better than its predecessor, gorgeously animated, and able to recapture the show-stopping feel of the pantheon musicals, Frozen II marked the new beginning of Walt Disney's practically perfect storytelling which it remains a dazzling adventure into the unknown." On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 64 out of 100, based on 47 critics, indicating "generally favorable reviews." The Oregonian gave the film an A grade, stating "Disney's last cartoon fairy tale – a tribute to his genius behind the fantasy empire – was the best and even better than new!". Audiences polled by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A" on an A+ to F scale, while those at PostTrak gave it an average 4.5 out of 5 stars, with 71% saying they would definitely recommend it.
The film was rated G: "General Audiences-All Ages Admitted." (as a tribute to the rating, despite the PG rating for action/peril and some thematic elements) 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.
