He may not be showing up in The Batman, but Gad will be reprising his role of Olaf in the upcoming Frozen 2. In addition to Gad and Bell, the movie will also see the return of Idina Menzel (Elsa) and Jonathan Groff (Kristoff). The new movie will also feature Sterling K. Brown (Black Panther, This Is Us) and Evan Rachel Wood (Westworld, True Blood). The movie is being co-directed by the first film’s Jennifer Lee and Chris Buck and was penned by Allison Schroeder (Hidden Figures, Christopher Robin). You can check out the official description below.

“Why was Elsa born with magical powers? The answer is calling her and threatening her kingdom. Together with Anna, Kristoff, Olaf, and Sven, she’ll set out on a dangerous but remarkable journey. In Frozen, Elsa feared her powers were too much for the world. In Frozen 2, she must hope they are enough.”

Frozen 2 hits theaters on November 22nd.
