"In a curious turn, the announcement comes only days after the film's two directors - Jennifer Lee and Chris Buck - told US media there were no plans for a sequel. "Until we find our way into what's next emotionally, it will feel too big," Lee had said. But the studio on Thursday confirmed a sequel was coming, though it has not announced a date. And Disney chief Bob Iger and Pixar boss John Lasseter said Lee and Buck would direct it." - Andrew C (✔)
