'Frozen 2' Release Date, Cast & Plot Rumors: Kristen Bell Surprises Fans at Sing-Along Event
Kristen Bell gave "Frozen" fans a treat when she made a surprise appearance at the opening night of the "Frozen Sing-Along" at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood.
The 34-year-old actress told Entertainment Weekly: "There is no way to foresee a movie's success or how much it would touch people."
"You strive to make the best movie possible and I felt like we did that," she added.
The star, who lent her voice to give life to Princess Anna, was joined by characters dressed as both Anna and on-screen sister, Queen Elsa. MSN noted that Bell's appearance was met with cheers and a standing ovation.
She is still in awe about the great success of the film globally and continued to tell EW: "It's especially invigorating because music is what brought me to performing and acting in general. From doing so much non-singing work and being satisfied with that, to have it then be able to reincorporate music into what you do as a performer -- which is hopefully tell a good story -- it feels weirdly full circle. To be able to do it is one thing, to be hired to do it is really lucky."
Spectacular Hit
