Why Elsa doesn't hold a love story, gay or otherwise, in 'Frozen 2'

Ever since "Frozen" premiered in , people in the LGBTQ community have create Queen Elsa's story to be a powerful allegory for queer identity, and hoped she might be given a gay love interest in the coming sequel.

But Elsa doesn't have any type of romantic partner in the upcoming movie, despite the popular fan theories about her sexuality. 

"When we agreed to do the sequel, we agreed we were going to not build it [from] the outside in," codirector Jennifer Lee said in an interview with Insider at the Walt Disney Animation Studios in Burbank, California this past September. "We just couldn't do it."

Lee and her codirector Chris Buck, along with producer Peter Del Vecho, first started thinking about the story for "Frozen 2" about three years ago. 

"What we did was spend a lot of time with each of the characters," Lee said. "I journaled as the characters, we did personality tests, just a lot of in-depth function and looking at where they are in their lives. For us, really looking at what

&#;I love everything people are saying [and] people are thinking about with our film ― that it’s creating dialogue, that Elsa is this wonderful character that speaks to so many people. It means the world to us that we’re part of these conversations.

“Where we’re going with it, we include tons of conversations about it, and we’re really conscientious about these things. For me&#;Elsa’s every day telling me where she needs to go, and she’ll continue to tell us. I always write from character-out, and where Elsa is and what Elsa’s doing in her life, she’s telling me every day. We’ll see where we go.&#;

That was Frozen writer and co-director Jennifer Lee, back in February, discussing the murmurs that Elsa would become the first gay Disney Princess&#; following endless speculation that the movie implied that she was, indeed, a lesbian.

I revealed on last Friday&#;s 69th Edition of The Fanboy Podcastthat I&#;d heard from a couple of very reliable sources that the team behind Frozen 2 are going to pull the trigger by establishing that Elsa is gay in the seque

Frozen 3 Theory: Elsa’s Love Interest Has Already Been Introduced

Summary

  • Honeymaren could be Elsa's potential affection interest in Frozen 3, potentially confirming Elsa is gay.
  • Elsa and Honeymaren share a connection based on their Northuldra heritage and love for nature.
  • Disney's LGBTQ+ representation has been poor in the past, and it needs to handle Elsa's potential romance with Honeymaren properly.

Elsa's sexuality hasn’t been determined yet within the Frozen franchise, but one theory suggests that Elsa's potential love interest could lead to the confirmation that Elsa is gay in Frozen 3. Honeymaren, a member of the Northuldra tribe who was trapped in the Enchanted Forest by the curse, could go back for Frozen 3 as Elsa’s girlfriend based on the two characters' shared chemistry. Ever since Frozen debuted, the LGBTQ+ community has identified with Elsa’s story arc, since her character has personal goals as a Disney princess that extend beyond finding a prince, doesn’t conform to societal norms, and goes on a journey of self-acceptance.

While fans have bee

A petition urging Disney not to portray Elsa as a lesbian in Frozen 2 has reached almost 11, signatures.

The action was launched after Jennifer Lee, the film's co-director, replied "we'll spot where we go" when asked whether script writers had decided the sexuality of the fictional Queen of Arendelle.

Since its release in , the sexuality of Elsa has been a source of debate. The film focused on platonic sisterly treasure and abandoned the Disney trope of a princess breaking her spell by finding true romance with a prince.

The Oscar-winning song Let It Go, meanwhile, was read by some as an anthem for coming out. In , Twitter users harnessed #GiveElsaAGirlfriend and #MakeElsaALesbian to call on Disney to generate Elsa its first gay movie hero.

Speaking ahead of the release of A Wrinkle in Time, Lee told the Huffington Post: "I love everything people are saying [and] people are thinking about with our film&#;that it's creating dialogue [about LGBT characters], that Elsa is this wonderful character that speaks to so many people.

"It means the world to us that we're part of these convers
