Although the animated film opened late in 2013, the story of Elsa, Anna, Olaf, Kristoff and Sven easily outpaced other vote-getters like “Sherlock” star Benedict Cumberbatch, TV guru Shonda Rimes, musicians Beyonce and Pharrell Williams for entertainer of the year. "Frozen" has earned Disney more than $1.27 billion at the box office worldwide, becoming the most successful animated movie of all time. Its signature song “Let It Go” won an Oscar and a national touring live version on ice has been a huge draw. (AP Photo/Disney)

Two years after Disney first confirmed a sequel to the 2013 mega-successful animated film “Frozen,” the studio finally has a target release date in mind.

The highly anticipated follow-up, which has already amassed a cult following internationally, will debut in cinemas on Nov. 27, 2019, IGN reported.

Returning to reprise their voice roles as leads Anna and Elsa are Kristen Bell and Idina Menzel, respectively, while director Jennifer Lee returns to helm the project.

The adorable comic-relief snowman Olaf will  also be once again given life by Josh Gad.

The original film, which detailed the journey of estranged sisters toward a path of reconciliation, earned an absurd $1.3 billion worldwide.

A broadway show based on the film is also expected to debut next year.

Aside from the Frozen sequel, Disney also revealed the release dates for “Star Wars: Episode IX”—May 24, 2019—and a fifth untitled Indiana Jones movie, July 10, 2020.  Khristian Ibarrola /ra
