The
Frozen franchise had a smashing beginning back in 2013 with the first instalment becoming the highest grossing animated film of all time. Though that record was recently overtaken by Disney's realistic remake of
The Lion King,
based on box office opening predictions, it seems that
Frozen 2 is on track to steal back the crown from the king of the jungle.
Frozen is such a significant property that, Viz Media recently announced that the upcoming sequel will be adapted into a manga.
Frozen 2: The Manga will release in early 2020 — according to the tweet in question (
@VIZMedia), which you can check out below:
The publisher announced a partnership with Disney during New York Comic-Con.
Frozen 2: The Manga and
Star Wars: The Legends of Luke Skwalker will be the first products of this union.
However, they are by no means the first manga adaptations of Disney properties. Tokyopop published manga adaptations of the following franchises:
Alice In Wonderland,
Nightmare Before Christmas,
Kingdom Hearts,
Lilo & Stitch,
Tangled, and
Pirates of the Caribbean.
Why was Elsa born with magical powers? The answer is calling her and threatening her kingdom. Together with Anna, Kristoff, Olaf and Sven, she'll set out on a dangerous but remarkable journey. In “Frozen,” Elsa feared her powers were too much for the world. In “Frozen 2,” she must hope they are enough.
Frozen 2 is set to arrive in theatres on November 22nd, 2019.
