Elsa (Idina Menzel) and Anna (Kristen Bell) find themselves on another adventure with their friends Olaf (Josh Gad) and Kristoff (Jonathan Groff) after awakening elemental spirits.

The “Frozen 2” cast also includes Evan Rachel Wood, Sterling K. Brown and Alfred Molina, amongst others.

Disney studios has also surpassed a billion dollars with “Avengers: Endgame,” “Captain Marvel,” “Toy Story 4,” and “The Lion King.” With the way things are going for “Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker,” it could also break that threshold as well.

Last year alone, Disney studios had a $10 billion surge in profits, according to Forbes. This was the same year they acquired 20th Century Fox and all their owned licenses, which included two other films amongst the highest-grossing of all time, “Avatar” and “Titanic.” With their own successes and ownership of those films, Disney is the highest-grossing studio of all time.
