A different Elsa is coming, "Frozen 2" plot, cast and release date updates revealed.
But fans need not worry about the change, if it would be anything, director Chris Buck explained that viewers will meet a fun Elsa in the sequel.
"[In Frozen] she had such a dramatic journey, and at the end she's just starting to feel like she can open up and have some fun again," he told Fandango. "That's what was really good about the short -- we could have fun with Elsa. And that personality... you will see in the next one."
"Mostly what we saw of Elsa was a misunderstood villain, but some one you could empathize with," Cinema Blend added. "Now, that she has come to terms with herself, and is able to loosen up a bit, Buck says we are going to see a whole new side of her."
Meanwhile, a fun Elsa and the rest of the Arendelle gang will be facing a new villain reportedly.
"In the latest round of rumors, Disney fans are saying that since 'Frozen' focused on Elsa and her power of ice, a new villain will make its way to Arendelle with an opposite power - that of mastery over fire," Christian Today noted.
"In addition, it is also speculated that Prince Hans, now a changed man, will again return in the sequel and would try to win Queen Elsa's heart. Also, Hans will reportedly help Elsa and Anna fend off attacks from the new villain. "
"Frozen" fans might have to wait longer for "Frozen 2" as plot, cast and release date rumors suggest that the sequel won't be out until 2018.
Disney is reportedly taking their time to perfect "Frozen 2," so a much later premiere date like 2018 should be expected.
Chris Buck will be helming "Frozen 2" together with "Frozen" co-director Jennifer Lee.
