Olaf is the center of attention in a new Disney+ short!
The huggable snowman, voiced by Josh Gad, will get his very own origin story in Once Upon A Snowman.

And how did Olaf learn to love Summer?

In Magic of Disney’s Animal Kingdom, National Geographic will give viewers an all-encompassing backstage pass to explore the magic behind two of the world’s most beloved animal experiences, Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park and The Seas with Nemo & Friends at EPCOT.

“Magic of Disney’s Animal Kingdom captures the spirit of these two world-famous parks and its animals and ushers that feeling directly into viewers’ living rooms,” Josh said in a statement. “Each episode, we get to know these animals intimately and are immersed in the magic of Disney, and it’s been a joy giving voice to this ultimate adventure.”
Magic of Disney’s Animal Kingdom will premiere on Friday, September 25th, on Disney+!
While the stars of the hit movies have said that doing movie musical sequels is always tough, Josh Gad, aka Olaf, is dishing on whether a Frozen 3 could happen.
“I mean, here’s the deal, Frozen 2 wasn’t Frozen 2 until there was a reason to exist,” he told Pop Culture. “And similarly, I don’t know if and when there will be a Frozen 3. That’s way above my pay grade, but what I can tell you is this: There was an opportunity to take these characters and bring again a sense of hope and inspiration. And it’s why the team at Disney and I teamed up on the past couple of weeks to do At Home with Olaf.”
“And so the Frozen saga continues, even if it’s not necessarily in the form of a third movie. But we’ll see!” Josh added. “If there’s always a story worth telling, I’m sure that [writer/co-director] Jennifer Lee and the incredible team over at Disney animation will tell that story one day.”
Frozen 2 wasn’t announced until two years after the first Frozen hit theaters, and wasn’t released until six years after Frozen.
