 On January 12 , 2011 , composer Alan Menken was asked about the sequel in an interview . His reply was , " I ’ ve heard things but there 's nothing yet . I don ’ t know much about what ’ s happening with that . Honestly , I don ’ t know what the studio wants to do next . I presume there will be some future projects for me to work on . I love doing that , I really do . But I ’ m not frustrated that it isn ’ t one of them . At the moment I have a lot of stage things happening and I ’ m busy enough with that , so I really don ’ t need more on my plate . "
