Prologue
Opening Scene
[Fade in...] A cloaked figure [wearing a coat, pants, and gloves underneath] searches for the hidden entrance to a long-forgotten Middle Eastern tomb. Another cloaked figure stands a short distance away, watching.
The first figure finds the door and enters, followed by the second figure. They make their way deeper into the cave. The figure in the lead is walking slowly and cautiously. Along the walls, from floor to ceiling, are shelves with various ornaments and treasures. The first intruder is making sure to examine the artifacts as he passes. He turns to the second man.
FIGURE 1: Help me search.
The second figure simply stares at the first. The first figure shrugs.
FIGURE 1 [CONT’D]: If you insist.
The leading figure continues searching, then finds something of interest. There is a small cylinder next to an engraved box. The figure picks up both the cylinder and box in one motion, opens the box, shakes his head, then stealthily puts the cylinder in his coat pocket as he returns the box to the shelf. He continues searching.
The two make their way down the hall and come to a stone door with runes on it. The first figure illuminates the door with his lantern, reading the runes.
FIGURE 1 [CONT’D]: Hm.
[Camera view switches to the other side of the door.] The door opens, and the intruders enter. The room is a burial chamber, and in the center is a single stone coffin large enough for two people. In front of the coffin is a pedestal with a box on top. The leading figure opens the box [the camera is angled so the box’s contents cannot be seen].
FIGURE 1 [CONT’D]: (murmurs) At last.
The camera sweeps to above the box and the contents are revealed: on the left side, a softly glowing red-orange gem, on the right, a softly glowing blue gem.The scene fades to black, except for the glow of the gems, as the screen freezes over and the Frozen logo appears. Behind the layer of ice, the glow of the gems suddenly increases and melts through the ice to form the rest of the title: Fire and Fury.
The gems’ glow expands and envelopes the screen, melting the ice before disappearing to darkness.
