\"It was amazing. They looked at me and they go, 'Daddy, we liked it even more than the first one,'\" Gad said, later joking that he responded, \"what was wrong with the first one?\"
The rest of the original \"Frozen\" cast are also reprising their roles in the second installment of the movie, including Idina Menzel as Elsa.
Gad said he is a big fan of Menzel and first saw her on Broadway.
\"I think it borders on, there will probably be legal restrictions placed against me,\" Gad joked of his fandom. \"I am borderline obsessed with her since I first saw her in \"Rent\" when I was in high school and then I saw her in \"Wicked\" and I just fell in love with her. She's so remarkable. She's so good and such a beautiful human being.\"
Gad went on, noting how much he appreciates fans of the film. \"So many people came to the theater dressed as the characters and it just warms my heart to see kids, grown men, everybody, wearing these costumes,\" he said.
\"Frozen 2\" is in theaters now.
The Walt Disney Company is the parent company of ABC News and Good Morning America.
