“The Further Adventures of Walt’s Frozen Head” was Secretly Shot at Walt Disney World

Walt's frozen head

“The Further Adventures of Walt’s Frozen Head” is a feature comedy about the afterlife of the world famous animator and media mogul. Playing off the urban legend that Walt Disney had himself cryogenically preserved, a new feature film is being produced and shot in the Orlando area.

The movie was made without the knowledge or permission of the Walt Disney Company or family.

The Further Adventures of Walt’s Frozen Head is a quirky comedy about the unlikely friendship between the frozen head of Walt, and Peter, a low level theme park employee. During his yearly dethaw to oversee the direction of his company and guard his creative legacy, Walt demands to be finally allowed up to see his park, Walt Disney World. When management scoffs, he recruits Peter to kidnap him for a day in the Magic Kingdom. The film draws its creative inspiration from the live action comedies of the 1960s.


Significant portions of the film were shot on Walt Disney World property without the knowledge of the Disney company. While this film is not the first to do so, it is the first feature film about the urban legend of Walt Disney’s cryogenic preservation.

Social media for the film began over a year ago, with the creation of the popular Twitter parody account @waltsfrzenhead. The account tweets humorous commentary on the parks, films, and general news from the perspective of the cryogenically preserved head of Walt.

The film’s title character has not yet been cast. Walt’s head will be digitally composited into the film. The compositing process will allow him to be added even though the majority of the film has already been completed.

The film was cast and shot under the code name The Florida Project, the same code name originally used for what would become the Walt Disney World resort. While all the filming at Walt Disney World has been completed, several more scenes are yet to be shot in other locations around the Orlando area. The project has the expected completion date of Spring 2017.
