Every kid and grownup surely recognize the tunes from the Disney animated film, "Frozen." It brought back the magic into Disney and reminded a lot of people how it was able to create classics. It is no surprise then that a sequel is underway.

There have been rumors of Idina Menzel leaving the cast. The talented broadway star is said to have been busy with wedding preparations, leaving co-stars Kirsten Bell and Josh Gad behind.

Speculations arise as to who will be replacing Menzel for the epic role of Elsa. It was rumored that Taylor Swift could be the one, and might even sing the theme song for the sequel. The list of replacements also has Demi Lovato, who sang "Let it Go" for the first film, and Ariana Grande. Disney has not made any comments on the matter, and fans will have to wait.

Either way, as Disney looks for a replacement, fans are busy looking for Elsa's one true love who everyone hopes will make an appearance. According to Morning Ledger, it seems an Elsa–Jack Frost connection was the most popular tandem among netizens. Scores of memes came up on the internet, linking together in an icy romance.

An unconventional romance also whips up a storm in social media. The twitter hashtag #GiveElsaAGirlfriend made the rounds for quite some time and has been a trending topic. If it happens, it could be the very first time that Disney will have an LGBT-themed princess, Parent Herald reports. Menzel also mentioned in a previous interview with Ellen that she was interested in such an idea.

Of course, the comic relief Olaf can't be left behind. Some speculate that even he will find his love interest in a snow woman. Practically anything can happen at this point in time.

"Frozen 2" is scheduled to premiere in 2018.
