Even though he helped create the lovable Olaf, Gad said he wouldn’t want to play him on the Great White Way.

“Daddy doesn't want to dress up as a snowman eight times a week. I'm going to let somebody else do that,” the 36-year-old star quipped. “No I'm good, I'm good. I'm good in my pajamas in a nice sound booth.”

And the Beauty and the Beast star is preparing to get back in the sound booth to start work on Frozen 2 very soon.

“I've heard rumors of what may be going on, and it all sounds wonderful and it's surprising and amazing,” Gad coyly teased.

The highly anticipated sequel isn’t set to hit theaters until Nov. 27, 2019, so fans will have to wait some time to see Olaf in action.
