While we have appreciated the various roles Josh Gad has portrayed on screen, one of his most remarkable ones would be from Frozen. The actor lent his voice to the character of Olaf, a snowman who is alive and is best friends with Elsa, Anna, Kristoff, and Sven. Well, although Gad has his feelings attached to the character, he recently expressed an emotion of regret while talking about voicing the always-cheered-up being from Frozen. 

“If I could do it all over again, I would not have lent that snowman my voice. I would’ve created a different voice,” Gad expressed, as per the Hollywood Reporter. 

Further talking during the Fan Expo Canada, the actor from another Disney movie, Beauty and the Beast stated that people around him always tell him that he has a very unique voice. 

However, while shedding light on his talents and the character, Gad stated that giving his own voice to Olaf “was my first big mistake.”

It looks like Josh Gad has some different plans when it comes to voicing Olaf, which we might see in the near future. 

While we have heard the happy voice of The Internship actor in the 2013 movie, and again in its 2019 sequel, Josh Gad might hype us up again in the upcoming entries of Frozen. 

The highly popular franchise is set to have its third installment released on November 24, 2027, which will be followed by a seemingly continued fourth installment that is currently under development.
