Frozen II received one Academy Award nomination. Its nomination was for Best Original Song, recognizing “Into the Unknown,” written by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez and performed in the film by Idina Menzel with AURORA.
The nomination came at the 92nd Academy Awards, honoring films released in 2019. “Into the Unknown” serves as Elsa’s major musical turning point: a mysterious voice calls her beyond Arendelle, and the song captures her uncertainty, curiosity, and growing determination to follow it.
Frozen II did not receive Academy Award nominations for Best Animated Feature, its score, or any other category. That is why the correct total is one, even though the film earned numerous nominations and wins from other awards organizations and became a major worldwide box-office success.
A frequent comparison is the original Frozen, which won two Oscars: Best Animated Feature and Best Original Song for “Let It Go.” Frozen II’s Oscar recognition was narrower, with only its song nomination. “Into the Unknown” ultimately lost to “(I’m Gonna) Love Me Again” from Rocketman.
