Los Angeles [US], September 21 (ANI): Actor Dylan O’Brien recently took a stroll down memory lane and shared his experience auditioning for ‘Frozen 2’.
During his appearance on ‘Late Night With Seth Meyers’, in an interaction with the host, Dylan opened up about his failed audition for the 2019 animated sequel, which saw Kristen Bell and Idina Menzel return as sisters Anna and Elsa, respectively, The Hollywood Reporter reported.
O’Brien said he didn’t go into the audition with high hopes of landing the role “because I knew that I probably wasn’t going to get it.” The actor didn’t disclose which character he auditioned for.
“They’re looking for multitalented, multi-hyphenate people who can act and sing,” he told Seth Meyers of the musical film. “And I didn’t check, to be honest, probably either.”
The Teen Wolf alum acknowledged that he “can’t sing,” but decided to audition because he doesn’t “always feel like a real actor.” However, Meyers wondered how long it took the casting director to also realize singing wasn’t one of O’Brien’s top talents.
“This poor woman,” the actor said. “I remember, actually–this is a specific detail–she asked me, painfully, if I could get to the chorus because she needed to see if I had a certain range.”
O’Brien admitted he was “swimming in the first verse a little bit,” but eventually “went higher,” per the woman’s request, and “it was really bad.”
“I knew. She knew. It’s okay,” he quipped, but Meyers asked in response, “Did she know you knew?”
“I think so, because when she said to me, ‘Okay, okay’… She said two ‘okays.’ I’ll never forget it,” The Maze Runner actor recalled. “And then she said, ‘Thank you for coming in. I think we’d probably need a bit of a stronger singer,’ and I was already just nodding, going, ‘Yeah, I know.’ I was like, ‘Thanks for having me.'”
Overall, the audition was a positive experience for him.
“I honestly only remember it fondly,” he said, before playfully telling Meyers, “And then I’m glad that’s what they chose for you to ask me about.”
Released in 2019, Frozen 2 revolves the origin of Elsa’s powers and how the group face numerous adventures along the way. (ANI)
