Disney’s Frozen films have proven to be among the studio’s most profitable and culturally significant properties, with two Academy Award wins and several nominations. The franchise’s songs, memorable characters, and themes have left a lasting mark on pop culture, inspiring stage adaptations, merchandise lines, and even viral social media trends. Part of the appeal may have been the films’ voice cast, which includes Kristen Bell, Josh Gad, and Idina Menzel. Even then, early reports alleging that they signed deals for salaries worth more than $60 million apiece to return for two additional Frozen movies were met with some shock. These reports quickly went viral, illustrating how celebrity pay stories capture public attention.
