Long Range Tracking Has ‘Frozen 2’ Grossing $145M In It’s Opening Weekend At The Box Office

In 2013, Walt Disney Animation Studios had a surprise hit on their hands with Frozen. The film would go on to be the studios’ highest-grossing animated film and the highest-grossing animated film all time, making over $1.27 billion, which would be beaten this year by the studios’ remake of The Lion King, which sits at $1.63 billion.

Now, fast forward over 5 years later, and the studio is set to release the highly anticipated sequel Frozen 2, and according to BoxOfficePro, they are projecting the film to open to a massive $115-145 million in its opening weekend. That would be double what the first Frozen film made it’s opening weekend ($67.3 million).

It should be noted that this is long-range tracking and these number could go up or down as the marketing begins to ramp up. Frozen 2 will face tough family-friendly competition at the box office this holiday season, with films like Jumanji: The Next Level, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, and Spies In Disguise.
