Frozen II is a 2019 American computer-animated musical fantasy film produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios, the 58th entry in the Disney Animation canon and the sequel to Frozen (2013).

Set three years after the first film, Frozen II follows sisters Anna and Elsa, alongside Kristoff, an iceman, his reindeer Sven, and Olaf, a snowman, as they travel to the mythical Enchanted Forest to unravel the origin of Elsa's magical power. It deals with the themes of ecofeminism, anti-imperialism, anti-colonialism, and female empowerment.
Frozen II was green-lit in March 2015 after an internal company debate over if it would be perceived as an inferior to the original. It used more complex enhanced animation technologies as part of the technological advancements, and was cross-departmentally collaborated. Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez reprised their roles as songwriters, and Christophe Beck returned as composer. It was translated to 46 languages, and was accompanied by a development documentary series, Into the Unknown: Making Frozen II.
Frozen II premiered in Los Angeles on November 7, 2019, and was released in the United States on November 22. The film received generally positive reviews for its craftsmanship, deliveries, and themes, though its narrative and focus drew occasional criticism, while its music divided critics. It earned $1.450 billion worldwide, and became the third highest-grossing film of 2019, the 10th highest-grossing film of all time, and the second highest-grossing animated film of all time during its theatrical run, where the film had the highest all-time worldwide opening for an animated film. Frozen II also received numerous accolades, including two Annie Awards, and was nominated for a BAFTA, two Golden Globes, and two Grammys.
