Later this year Disney will be hoping to match the success of Tangled with Frozen, a new take on the classic tale The Snow Queen (a story the studio has been thinking about animating for decades). Now two new character posters from the film have debuted over at Cine1, giving us our first proper look at lead characters Elsa and Anna.

Here is the synopsis: ‘When a prophecy traps a kingdom in eternal winter, Anna, a fearless optimist, teams up with extreme mountain man Kristoff and his sidekick reindeer Sven on an epic journey to find Anna’s sister Elsa, the Snow Queen, and put an end to her icy spell. Encountering mystical trolls, a funny snowman named Olaf, Everest-like extremes and magic at every turn, Anna and Kristoff battle the elements in a race to save the kingdom from destruction.’

Kristen Bell, Idina Menzel, Josh Gad and Jonathan Groff lead the voice cast. The movie is due out in the US this November, and will probably reach the UK the following February.

The first image of Renesmee from The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 has arrived, via EW. At the end of Breaking Dawn Part 1, Renesmee was a newborn, but as you can see from the image above, where she peeps out from behind her mother, she’s growing ridiculously fast! But that’s what happens when you test the uncharted territories of having a half-vampire, half human child.

As this is Twilight, no one is allowed to smile, even for a family portrait, but then with everyone from the wolfpack to the Volturi not being too chuffed about Renesmee’s existence, they probably don’t have much to be cheerful about. The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2 hits cinema on November 16th.

Idina Menzel is a huge name on the Broadway stage, but she’s never made as much of an impact on screen, despite popping up in the likes of Rent, Enchanted and playing Rachel’s birth mother in Glee. However now her voice will be getting a major outing in Disney’s Frozen, which is inspired by the fairytale The Snow Queen.

Slated for release November 2013 and directed by Chris Buck (Tarzan, Surf’s Up), Frozen will also feature Kristen Bell as Anna, a young dreamer about to take the adventure of a lifetime, with Menzel as Elsa, the Snow Queen.

In Frozen, a prophecy traps a kingdom in eternal winter, so Anna (Bell) must team up with Kristoff, a daring mountain man, on the grandest of journeys to find the Snow Queen (Menzel) and put an end to the icy spell. Encountering Everest-like extremes, mystical creatures and magic at every turn, Anna and Kristoff battle the elements in a race to save the kingdom from destruction.

The movie will feature original songs by Broadway greats Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez. Robert Lopez is a three-time Tony Award-winner thanks to The Book of Mormon, which was co-written with Trey Parker and Matt Stone (South Park), and the musical Avenue Q, which ran for six years on Broadway and four years in London’s West End. Lopez teamed with wife Kristen Anderson-Lopez, whose Drama Desk-winning show In Transit is Broadway-bound, to write original songs for 2011′s Winnie the Pooh, a stage version of Finding Nemo and a new musical called Up Here.

Kristen Bell gained a lot of fans thanks to Veronica Mars, but since then she’s only managed to flit around the edge of movie stardom. Now she’s got another couple of role she’ll hope will cement her position as a box office talent, as she’s set to star in Neil LaBute’s Some Girl, as well as Disney’s animated project, Frozen.

THR reports that LaBute’s adaptation of his stage play stars Adam Brody (Damsels in Distress) as a man who attempts to make amends with several ex-girlfriends on the eve of his wedding. Bell plays Bobbi, a smart, articulate woman he bailed on years before without a word, leaving her without respect or love for him.

Bell has also signed up to voice the lead role in Frozen, an upcoming animated musical from Walt Disney Pictures. Frozen is the latest incarnation of Disney’s endless attempts to make a movie based on The Snow Queen fairy story. However, it’s not known how much of the oriignal tale remains, or who Bell might play, although it is said that she will be both speaking and singing as the lead character. Chris Buck (Surf’s Up) is directing. The film’s due out late 2013.
