“Into The Unknown: Making Frozen 2”

Disney has announced a new behind the scenes documentary series, “Into The Unknown: Making Frozen 2”, will be heading to Disney+ on June 26th! The six-episode series will go behind behind the scenes of Frozen 2. Each episode will be between 30 and 40 minutes in length and all six episodes will be available on June 26. Here’s the official synopsis:

With the clock ticking and less than a year until the world premiere of Frozen 2, the filmmakers, artists, songwriters and cast open their doors to cameras for a six-part documentary series to reveal the hard work, heart, and collaboration it takes to create one of the most highly-anticipated films in Walt Disney Animation Studios’ near-century of moviemaking. For the first time, cameras were there to capture an eye-opening – and at times jaw-dropping – view of the challenges and the breakthroughs, the artistry, creativity and the complexity of creating the #1 animated feature of all time.

The series follows director/writer/chief creative officer Jennifer Lee, director Chris Buck, producer Peter Del Vecho, songwriters Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez, actors Kristen Bell (“Anna”), Idina Menzel (“Elsa”), Josh Gad (“Olaf”), Jonathan Groff (“Kristoff”), Sterling K. Brown (“Lieutenant Mattias”), Evan Rachel Wood (“Iduna”) and the talented artists and technicians of Disney Animation as they race against time to finish the film, with both creative breakthroughs and frustrations along the way.

Idina Performs at 92nd Annual Academy Awards!

Idina Menzel attended and performed at the 92nd Annual Academy Awards yesterday! Idina performed FROZEN II’s “Into The Unknown” with Aurora and nine international Elsas in a beautiful performance! Idina and the Elsas also spoke with Good Morning America on Saturday to tease the performance which was introduced by Josh Gad.  Josh was great, saying: “The iconic and brilliant Idina Menzel, pronounced exactly as it is spelled.”

As if that weren’t enough, would it be an Idina Oscars without a viral moment? Idina’s face while Eminem performed “Lose Yourself” launched memes and articles, but this is my personal favorite.

Utkarsh Ambudkar also mentioned Idina in a rap and her reaction was priceless:

Idina spent some time on the red carpet doing interviews: E! News, etalk on CTV, On The Red Carpet You can see photos of Idina on the red carpet, performing, and at the Vanity Fair After Party in the gallery!
