This timethe duo earned Story By credits given the heavy involvement of songs in thesequel. Voice cast Kristen Bell, Idina Menzel and Josh Gad were also back. Frozen 2 opened in thepre-Thanksgiving slot previously ruled over by the Harry Potter moviesand notched the fifth best opening in November with $130.2 million, and itssecond-weekend stretch of $125M was the best ever grossed for a Thanksgivingfive-day frame.
