Frozen Breaks UK Animated Film Box Office Records

Domestic audiences prove that they STILL want to build a snowman.
Walt Disney Pictures have announced today that Frozen has reached yet another milestone in its box office reign. The latest big-screen effort from Walt Disney Animation Studios focuses on two princesses, Anna and Elsa, who come into conflict as they re-open the gates to their long-isolated kingdom, and its flagship musical number Let It Go has gone on to reap critical acclaim in the weeks following the movie's release.

There'll be little doubt in the minds of the studio's execs that Idina Menzel's spellbinding tune has contributed greatly to Frozen's latest achievement. The victory in question? It has now become the highest grossing original animated film of all-time in the UK. This prestigious record was previously held by the 2001 hit Monsters Inc, but as the seasonal motion picture approaches a £38 million total figure in the UK, it has surpassed the Monsters University predecessor and is well on the way to matching animated sequels such as Toy Story 3 and Shrek 2. In case you missed the news and/or the movie itself, you'll now find a Sing-Along Edition of Frozen in cinemas across the UK for a limited time- why not catch it and find out precisely why we've been singing its praises ever since our 5* review last December?

For all the latest news, reviews and features on Walt Disney Animation Studios' upcoming projects, keep it On-Screen in the days ahead!
