ABC Adds Frozen Special to Holiday Lineup

Olaf’s Frozen Adventure, a new featurette based on Disney’s animated hit Frozen, is set to make its broadcast television premiere on ABC in the U.S. later this week.

Olaf’s Frozen Adventure comprises four new original songs and the same characters and cast from the 2013 film. In the special, Olaf teams up with Sven on a holiday mission to find the best family traditions in the kingdom for Anna and Elsa’s “first Christmas in forever.”

Olaf’s Frozen Adventure recently had a limited theatrical run in front of Disney/Pixar’s new animated movie Coco. It is due to debut on ABC on Thursday, December 14, at 8 p.m. as part of the channel’s 25 Days of Christmas celebration.

Producer Roy Conli said: “We are thrilled to be part of ABC’s 25 Days of Christmas festivities. While making the film, our crew was so inspired by all of the great television holiday specials of the past. It’s a dream come true for all of us.”
