‘Once Upon a Time’ casts ‘Frozen’ characters Anna and Kristoff

MANILA, Philippines – Live action versions of Frozen’s Anna and Kristoff have been cast in time for hit show Once Upon a Time’s fourth season, reported TVLine. 

Actor Scott Michael Foster has been cast as the burly, rough-and-tumble Kristoff, while relative newcomer Elizabeth Lail has been cast as Anna. 

Showrunner Adam Horowitz confirmed the news on Twitter.

Foster retweeted a photo of himself side by side with an image of Kristoff, no doubt highlighting his uncanny resemblance to the character. Foster’s acting credits include a stint on Greek, and roles in Californication and Parenthood.

Casting news about Elsa has yet to be announced (there’s still hope for the Elsa lookalike who’s made her interest in her role known!). 

The show’s third season finale teased the appearance of the Elsa character in the Once Upon a Time universe in the upcoming fourth season last May. It was later revealed that the show would also be including Anna and Kristoff as part of the cast. 

The show features modern interpretations of fairy tale characters who live in Storybrooke, Maine. It airs on ABC, which is owned by the Walt Disney Company.  – Rappler.com
