Let’s Get Frozen
Just in time for the holidays, Walt Disney Animation Studios and Pixar Animation Studios have teamed up to give us a new featurette: “Olaf’s Frozen Adventure”. Featuring none other than everyone’s favorite hug-gable snowman – Olaf! Olaf’s Frozen Adventure will show in front of Disney Pixar’s original feature film “Coco” on November 22, 2017.
We were recently invited to the Walt Disney Animation Studios to see Olaf’s Frozen Adventure and to hear Josh Gad (voice of Olaf), Roy Conli (producer) and Kevin Deters and Stevie Wermers-Skelton (directors) talk about the featurette. It was a very special experience and I feel so lucky to now be able to share it with all of you!
The hat!
The Spirit of the Holidays
Olaf’s Frozen Adventure is incredibly cute and genuinely encapsulates the spirit of the original Frozen film. The 21-minute featurette welcomes the original cast and characters back to the screen in a heartwarming tale about the importance of togetherness during holiday traditions.
Olaf (voice of Josh Gad) teams up with Sven on a merry mission in Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “Olaf’s Frozen Adventure.” It’s the first holiday season since the gates reopened and Anna (voice of Kristen Bell) and Elsa (voice of Idina Menzel) host a celebration for all of Arendelle. When the townspeople unexpectedly leave early to enjoy their individual holiday customs, the sisters realize they have no family traditions of their own. So, Olaf sets out to comb the kingdom to bring home the best traditions and save this first Christmas for his friends. In his own way, Olaf saves Christmas for the sisters. You’re going to love this short film!

Let’s Sing
With original songs by Elyssa Samsel and Kate Anderson Olaf’s Frozen Adventure features four new original songs that you’re going to fall in love with. After screening the featurette, we were invited to a reception where Elyssa Samsel and Kate Anderson performed a few songs from Olaf’s Frozen Adventure. It was amazing!
Olaf Desserts!
What Frozen inspired reception is complete without a Olaf dessert? Check out these super cute Olaf white chocolate rice crispy treats! I almost felt bad eating him, but he was so delicious.
Olaf’s Frozen Adventure will run before Disney Pixar’s Coco for a limited time. Everywhere in theaters November 22nd, 2017.
