Nick Jonas got iced out of Frozen after bombing Kristoff audition — he still won’t let it go: ‘Better to cast me’

Nick Jonas once attempted an audition for the role of Kristoff in Disney's Frozen, but his performance was not favorable. During a recent podcast appearance on Hey Jonas!, the 33-year-old revealed that he was unaware of the singing requirements for the role until the audition took place. In the moment, he admitted, "I bombed the audition."

However, his chemistry with Kristen Bell, who plays Elsa in the film, impressed Josh Gad, who joked about recasting Nick for the role. Despite the audition's outcome not making it into the final film, Nick remains a dedicated fan of the franchise, stating, "This feels authentic," and sharing that he and his family were huge fans when the movie released in 2013.
