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

## Nick Jonas' Audition Mishap

Nick Jonas recently shared a humorous story about his unsuccessful audition for the role of Kristoff in Disney's "Frozen." During a podcast with Kristen Bell, Idina Menzel, and Josh Gad, Jonas revealed that he was unaware the role required singing, leading to an awkward audition experience.

## Unprepared for a Musical

Jonas recounted that he was caught off guard when asked to sing during the audition. He admitted he was not informed that Kristoff had a solo, which resulted in a less-than-stellar performance. Despite the mishap, Josh Gad humorously suggested that Jonas had better chemistry with Kristen Bell than the actor who eventually got the role, Jonathan Groff.

## No Hard Feelings

Despite not landing the part, Jonas remains a fan of the "Frozen" franchise. He mentioned that his household enjoyed the movie when it was released in 2013, without any resentment over his audition experience. Jonas joked that he still believes he would have been a great choice for the role.
