Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard might not be huge fans of their mom's Frozen film series, but the successful Disney franchise will get them through college.
To promote her new Netflix series, Nobody Wants This, Bell spoke to Vanity Fair in a recent video interview, where she was asked whether her daughters have come to "appreciate" Frozen. Around the time of Frozen 2, Bell told People that her daughters, Lincoln, 11, and Delta, nine, "liked" but "didn't love" the first Frozen and also prefer Elsa to Anna, whom Bell voices.
"They certainly appreciate it in the fact that they can go to college because of it, but they’re not part of the Frozen phenomenon," Bell said around the 1:40-minute mark of the video below. "Because kids are meant to make you feel grounded and they are meant to reject things their parents are involved in. Even if they secretly liked it, they would never tell me."
But with Frozen 3 and Frozen 4 currently in the works, Bell will soon reclaim her Disney magic, along with more box office success. Frozen and Frozen 2 score $1.2 billion and $1.4 billion, respectively, in the total worldwide box office.
Elsewhere in the VF chat, Bell explained that she'd "always dreamed" of playing a Disney character and was "thrilled" when she was asked to voice Anna. The role was a chance for the 44-year-old to "create a character that I really needed to see when I was 11 years old."
"I said all the Disney princesses stand like this, their hands are always perfect, their posture is perfect," Bell said. "I want her [Anna] to be the opposite. I want her to wake up with drool in her mouth and I want her to snore and I want her to talk too much and too fast and wear her heart on her sleeve and trip over things, like the real quirk for a girl who is lovable, but not as put together."
