First trailer drops for new Disney+ ‘Frozen’ series: ‘Olaf Presents!’

Via DisDining.com

Disney’s Frozen is arguably the most popular and most successful animated film of the 21st century, and we think we know why.

If you compare Frozen to its other Disney animated film counterparts, there’s not a massive difference. In fact, the similarities are quite obvious. Each one, for the most part, is one part fairy tale, one part Disney-esque retelling, and one part life lesson. The story of Princess Anna and Queen Elsa doesn’t stray too far from the original recipe.

It does, however, add in a special ingredient that makes the film even more irresistible–and his name is Olaf. Has there ever been a more loving and lovable character? We think not, and apparently, Disney has quite the affinity for the lovable snowman as well because he’s landed his very own Disney+ series, called Olaf Presents.

The series was talked about when Bob Chapek declared November 12 “Disney+ Day” last month. (It is, after all, the anniversary of the platform going live in 2019.)

The new series promises to give us more of the adorable snowman we love as he retells some of Disney’s most beloved stories–and with a flair all his own! Take a look.

We think we like Olaf’s impersonation of Ariel from Disney’s The Little Mermaid the best, so far.

This won’t be Olaf’s first time to retell the story from a Disney feature film. After all, he did a pretty good job of retelling the story of Frozen in Frozen 2.

From the clips in the first trailer for Olaf Presents, we can see that he’s been practicing his take on Aladdin, The Little Mermaid, The Lion King and Moana, and we can’t wait to see which other Disney tales get an Olaf makeover!

You can stream Olaf Presents beginning Friday, November 12 on Disney+.

Josh Gad Surprises Health Care Worker’s Daughter

Grab a few tissues and get ready for the feels! Good Morning America (GMA) has been celebrating health care workers regularly throughout this pandemic. They most recently celebrated Ashley, a health care worker and founder of Pittsburgh’s first COVID-19 testing unit. We all know that the struggle of working around the clock must be surreal right now, and Ashley manages to keep it together… even with her sweet 7 year old daughter, Paige.

GMA found out Paige LOVES Olaf (of course, right?!)! So, they reached out to one of our all time favorite actors, Josh Gad (aka Olaf’s voice). Josh was sure to let Olaf share a special message for Paige. Check out the sweet video here:

Right along with Olaf, we too thank Ashley and Paige, and all other health care workers and their families, for their especially important service during these times. Warm hugs all around!

Learn To Draw: Josh Gad Gives His Shot At Olaf

This post is from DisneyParksBlog from January 2015.

“One of the most popular videos we ever shared in our “Learn to Draw” series is a step-by-step tutorial on how to draw Olaf, the lovable snowman from “Frozen.”

Check out what happens when actor Josh Gad, who voiced Olaf in the film, stops by The Magic of Disney Animation to test his own skills at drawing his animated friend. Josh, a Florida native, also shares what he loves about Disney Parks and talks about how it’s “surreal” to see “Frozen” characters added into the mix.”
