What happens when Frozen, a massive global success, gets transformed into Live-Action?!
Kristen Bell Picks Her Live-Action Successor
With two awesome movies and an upcoming Frozen 3 in the works, the question of who will bring Anna back to life, should Disney ever choose to take this beloved film into live action. That’s something we will all be wondering!
Fans will be thrilled to hear what Kristen Bell has to say about the Movie!
She loves her role as Anna. However, with an appearance in Elle in 2024, she has picked a new face. Joey King could be a good choice for the role and it looks to give those fans some hope. The talented actress has had some great hits with her own career such as her role in Bullet Train back in 2022, a comedy/action hybrid, or even a role that might be very well-known to fans in "The Kissing Booth" in 2018.
If that wasn't enough. King had a part in the 2024 movie called "Uglies!" It's looking like a future for this actor full of many bright roles!
So what does Bell have to say?
An Interesting Idea
It's hard to think of someone taking over from Bell! For one, she made Anna so iconic in the original movie!
It seems like a great, if not unlikely pairing and Bell seems to be in favor of this choice.
But for anyone who is wondering, there has never been any news that the Disney studio has considered the "Frozen" universe moving into live-action!
The Success of Frozen
It looks like Disney's recent history shows it isn't going to end! It has shown how to bring classic animated Movies into the world of Live-Action films! And some of their creations have gone on to hit huge milestones!
If there's one thing Disney has an abundance of? Those classics!
- The Lion King
was a big success when it hit the big screens in 2019! But these efforts have started a new direction in their cinematic adventures.
The animated films have been doing extremely well! Frozen and Frozen 2 are in the top five Animated movies with the highest grossing sales and that was even before Frozen 3 even got to hit the screens.
While fans will surely want to get a chance to see Bell as the iconic Anna in Frozen 3, It's probably only a matter of time before the next chapter comes into play with live-action remakes. Disney even has Moana getting the live-action treatment which came out as an animated movie in 2016, which may just add some fuel to this fiery idea for "Frozen!".
Disney Live-Action History
You've seen a lot of Disney Movies over time and most fans can really point out this growing trend in live action. It's hard to go a year without something!
If we go way back in time!
The first big movie that took on this big transition was a remake of "Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book" and was released in 1994. There was a big trend for Animated classics becoming "live action" classics, such as "101 Dalmations". Which made its way to movie theaters in 1996!
An Analysis of Casting Joey King as Anna:
For anyone who wants to make an impact in the entertainment industry, it's hard not to want to be part of a franchise as beloved as "Frozen."
- King's roles haven't received critical acclaim.
- Bell's performance made "Frozen" such a success.
- You get a glimpse into Bell's heart! When she speaks about who she'd like to take over her iconic role!
It might just take a few years before audiences see a live-action "Frozen", it seems like an amazing idea, and King may be just the perfect person to make it work!
There are going to be some exciting years for "Frozen" fans, and while it is a long wait! It's going to be exciting as the team creates a big, massive, world of animation that keeps the fun coming!
