Robert Lopez and Kristen Anderson-Lopez are continuing their partnership with Disney!
The songwriting couple, who wrote the music lyrics for both Frozen movies and the Broadway show, as well as Coco, are also writing original music for the upcoming Marvel series WandaVision.
The new show, premiering on Disney+ on January 15th, just released a new TV spot, featuring one of the sitcom theme songs written by Robert and Kristen.
They also recently opened up about working on WandaVision.
“We loved the bright feeling of American sitcoms mixed with the deep sense of unease the story had, and it was a really inviting challenge to help set that tone,” Robert told ET.
Kristen shared that they drew inspiration from classic sitcoms like I Love Lucy, The Brady Bunch and Family Ties.
If you didn’t know, you can watch Kristen and Robert working on the music for Frozen 2 in the Disney+ series Into The Unknown: Making Frozen II.
