On last night's WATCH WHAT HAPPENS LIVE, Tony nominee Josh Gad (Broadway's Book of Mormon) discussed whether or not he would ever consider reprising his role of 'Olaf the Snowman' in a Broadway production of FROZEN.

"I'm sure it's gonna be an amazing show," said Gad, quickly adding "But if there comes a point in my career when I have to put on a white jumpsuit and start to run around the stage saying, 'I like warm hugs,' things have gone terribly wrong!"

Gad will next be seen in the role of stand-up comic Sam Kinison in Kinison, a biopic that will be helmed by Larry Charles and produced by David Permut from a script by Rich Wilkes. He starred, co-created and executive produced the 2012 NBC comedy series 1600 PENN and has appeared on Broadway in 'Book of Mormon', for which he received a Tony nomination and '25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee.' He voiced the Snowman Olaf in Disney's animated hit, Frozen.
