Nat Geo and Disney team up for The Real Frozen series
National Geographic and Walt Disney Animation Studios will release a new natural history series called The Real Frozen that premieres on Nat Geo cable and streams on Disney+ and Hulu.
Cast returns to voice narrators
Anna, Elsa and Kristoff are voiced by Kristen Bell, Idina Menzel and Jonathan Groff as they act as the trio of narrators. Josh Gad will appear occasionally as Olaf in this production. The series reimagines characters from the Frozen universe as if they inhabited real worlds depicted throughout the show. These animals navigate harsh winters while revealing extraordinary behaviors and survival strategies found in nature.
Production follows previous adaptations
This initiative marks the fourth adaptation after Lion, which portrayed The Lion King in real life. It also follows the Emmy-winning A Real Bug's Life and the upcoming The Real Finding Nemo. The working title reflects the collaboration between Nat Geo and Walt Disney Animation Studios along with Silverback Films. Frozen 3 producer Christina Chen noted that original animators will bring characters to life for this series.
Filming locations span four nations
The show is set against breathtaking icy landscapes of Iceland, Finland, Norway and Sweden according to Nat Geo. Courteney Monroe said their aim is to motivate future generations by sharing tales that children enjoy and families rely on. Jeff Wilson said working with National Geographic offers a chance to show audiences the real world is magical. Katie Parsons and Elisabeth Oakham act as producers and director for every episode in the series.
