WHAT: The teaser trailer for Frozen 2
WHO: Disney
WHY WE CARE: In addition to yielding to the unrelenting ear worm that is “Let It Go,” Frozen was a seismic shift in the Disney princess cannon. Critics widely praised the fact that the story centered on sisterhood rather than a helpless woman trying to find her Prince Charming. Last year, rumors cropped up that Queen Elsa could, maybe, perhaps get a girlfriend in the sequel. So it’s no wonder that the just-released trailer for Frozen 2 is causing the internet to lose its mind–with a strong chorus of fans lobbying for Elsa to find her Princess Charming.
In the trailer, Elsa and her squad are seen traversing the impossible, on a mission of some sort. And there’s a new character who presumably has something to do with the film’s autumnal plot–and who people are hoping will be Elsa’s girlfriend.

Maybe Elsa won’t be gay in #Frozen2, but she sure will make people realize they are 😂

Whether or not Disney and the writers decide to take the story in this direction–or even hint at it for the grown-ups in the audience–the movie will be worth seeing just for that ocean scene alone.
