-Both Idina Menzel and Kristen Bell, who play the voices of Elsa and Anna, auditioned for the voice of Rapunzel in the movie "Tangled". Santiano Fontana, who voices Hans, auditioned for the voice of Flynn Rider, but was rejected, like Idina and Kristen.
-Elsa was originally a lot darker before "Let it Go" was written. She even had dark, spiky hair and was colored blue. Anna went from a "somebody rescue me girl" to a fearless, feisty girl - from a sarcastic to optimistic place.
-When Anna sings the song "Love is an Open Door" with Hans, that is the first time in Disney history that a princess has sung a duet with a villain. It is the second time that a good character has sung a duet with an evil character. The first time was in Pinocchio.
-The average human head has about 100,000 hairs. Anna has about 140,000 hairs, but Elsa has 400,000 hairs on her head. Compare that to Rapunzel, who had about 27,000 hairs on her head!
-In an early version of the story, Elsa created a whole army of huge snow creatures. There were tons of them!
-The musical scenes in the film actually make up over 24 minutes of the movie’s run time. No wonder it costs $15 in iTunes!
-Kristoff was at first a gruff mountain man of no words, but then Jonathan Groff got the part of Kristoff and then he got more talkative. Yay!
-To help see what reindeer act like, a real reindeer was brought to the studio to help create Sven! However, since Sven acts more like a dog, they had a Labrador brought in, too!
-Rapunzel and Flynn Rider from Tangled make an appearance when Anna bursts out of the gate in the song, "For the First Time in Forever".
-Prince Hans was named after a famous poet, Hans Christian Anderson. Frozen is also loosely based on "The Snow Queen", a fairytale by Hans Christian Anderson.
-Kai and Gerda, servants to the royal family, were named after the main characters in "The Snow Queen". (In Frozen, Kai is the one who introduces the Duke of Weselton as the Duke of 'Weasel Town')
-Sven was originally called Thor, but since "The Avengers" and the "Thor" movies are so popular, his name was changed to Sven.
-There used to be a song about walking into another person's shoes sang by the trolls. There was romantic music in the middle of it where Anna and Kristoff literally walked into each other's shoes and saw how each other saw the world, but it had a lot of lyrics about foot fungus.
-The song "Let it Go" was written in one day!
