"Frozen" audiences are invited to join the act-literally-as more than 1000 theaters nationwide introduce an all-new sing-along version of Disney's Oscar-nominated, Golden Globe-winning big-screen adventure beginning Jan. 31, 2014.
"'Frozen' fans have embraced the film's original songs and its soundtrack with such passion-there are countless YouTube videos from people singing songs like 'Let It Go'-we decided to create a version that would celebrate that enthusiasm," said Dave Hollis, executive vice president, theatrical distribution, The Walt Disney Studios. "It's a great opportunity for families to get together and have some fun with these songs."
According to Hollis, on-screen lyrics and a magical bouncing snowflake will accompany select showings; moviegoers can check local listings for showtimes and theaters. The duration of the sing-along run will vary by theater.
Disney's "Frozen" received two Oscar nominations, including best animated feature and best original song ("Let It Go"). Named best animated film by more than a dozen critics associations, the film won a Golden Globe for best animated feature, two Critics Choice Movie Awards, including best animated feature and best song ("Let It Go"), and a Producers Guild of America Award for outstanding animated feature.
In wide release since November 27, the film posted the No. 1 all-time Thanksgiving debut and the largest opening ever for a Walt Disney Animation Studios film. "Frozen," WDAS' 53rd feature film, has earned more than $773 million worldwide, including $337` million domestically. The film's soundtrack was No. 1 in the Billboard top 200 for two straight weeks.
