Disney has just announced details about their plans to release Frozen Fever!

It turns out that the studio will unveil the new short in theaters on March 13, 2015, in front of their upcoming live-action flick, Cinderella.

Chris Buck and Jennifer Lee are set to direct the short, which will feature an all-new original song by Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez. This marks the first project to reunite the Oscar-winning group from the uber-successful, lucrative film.

Frozen Fever follows Elsa and Kristoff as they do their absolute best to ensure that Anna has a birthday celebration to remember. The only problem is, Elsa's icy powers seem to get in the way of some serious party planning.

During a recent interview with The Telegraph, Idina Menzel revealed whether she will be involved in the upcoming short, rumored feature-length sequel and even the stage adaptation.

"They're all in the works," she said with a laugh. "Not the stage show…I don't know what will happen with that, but the movie hopefully. We'll see. I'm just going along for the ride."

And when asked about arguably the most famous part of the entire movie, the hit song "Let It Go", Menzel admitted that it's no easy feat to belt the memorable tune.

"It's really hard. I can't wake up in the morning and just sing it, you know," the Broadway star shared.

"I guess my advice is everyone that likes to sing it should sing it loud and proud and karaoke it out, sing it in the shower, sing it in the car and don't worry about hitting the high notes. I'm the only one who has to worry if people are gonna criticize me."
