Disney confirms plans for a fifth Toy Story movie and a third Frozen movie.

Disney has announced new sequels for two of its most popular franchises, Toy Story and Frozen.

First released in 1995, Toy Story went on to spawn three follow-up movies and a spinoff centred around Buzz Lightyear, with total box office receipts for the franchise exceeding $3.3 billion (£2.7 billion).

Animated musical Frozen, meanwhile, was an unbridled success upon its release in 2013 and, together with the 2019 sequel, has pulled in $2.8 billion at the box office.

Speaking to investors late last week, Disney CEO Bob Iger confirmed that Toy Story 5 and Frozen III are currently in development, while a sequel to Zootopia is also on the cards.

The company also revealed plans to launch an Avatar "experience" at Disneyland in California in the near future.
