With so much anticipation and excitement surrounding the project, there’s a lot of pressure on directors Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee to bring one of Disney’s most beloved stories back to life for a second go. Buck, however, isn’t letting the pressure get to him. With a overall story in place, he and Lee are in the early stages of development.
“Jen [Lee] and I are just getting back into the story room together and throwing ideas around. We have an overall idea, a concept, which I think is a very strong one. I’m very excited about doing it.”
“We have two very strong female leads in ’Frozen,” Buck said. “We will keep that going in the next one. We will tackle other issues that, I think, are out there today that boys and girls, men and women, are dealing with.”
“I think we’re very aware of what is happening in society,” he added. “I don’t think any of us take [them] lightly, even though they can be very funny and entertaining, the messages that our movies have and the influence they can have on young people. When the kids [watch] them, they watch them over and over again, and if we don’t have a decent message in there, I think we’ve missed an opportunity.”
