The creator of Disney’s Frozen hints at possible lesbian storyline

The immensely popular animated film Frozen was also whole-heartedly embraced by the LGBT+ community. Many people interpreted Elsa’s journey to self-acceptance as a gay parable. With the song “Let it Go” becoming an instant gay anthem. Fans of the film have called on Disney to make this canon and give Elsa a female love-interest.

Co-writer and creator of the film, Jennifer Lee, recently spoke about the growing support of this storyline to the Huffington Post: “I love everything people are saying [and] people are thinking about with our film ― that it’s creating dialogue, that Elsa is this wonderful character that speaks to so many people. It means the world to us that we’re part of these conversations.

“For me … Elsa’s every day telling me where she needs to go, and she’ll continue to tell us. I always write from character-out, and where Elsa is and what Elsa’s doing in her life, she’s telling me every day. We’ll see where we go.”

Idina Menzel, the actress who voices the character, has also thrown her support behind a lesbian Elsa: “I’m excited that the conversation is happening. I can’t promise anybody that that’s what’s gonna happen.

“But deep down am I really happy that it’s causing people to talk about it and have these kinds of conversations? Yeah I am.”
