Diogo on the Making of "Frozen, O Reino do Gelo"

Diogo recently talked about being the voice of "Kristoff" and making the Portuguese version of Disney's latest animated film, "Frozen."  Dina was kind enough to translate Diogo's segments (which you can use fast forward to see) of this fun video for us, which can be found right below.

Diogo discusses "Frozen: O Reino do Gelo" on Fama Show

Diogo was on "Fama Show" today, discussing lending his voice to "Kristoff" in Disney's latest animated film, "Frozen: O Reino do Gelo."  Dina yet again kindly translated these two quick but fun interviews for us, found right beneath the video.  (Fast forward to the 4:10 mark for Diogo's first segment, and then to the 19:00 mark for his second segment, from Disneyland Paris.)

Rita Andrade/Host: (pointing to the poster) This is "Kristoff," a character in the new Disney movie, FROZEN, featuring the voices of Diogo Morgado, Paulo Vintém and many other actors. A true story of delight.
Diogo: He ["Kristoff'] is the guy who sells ice, for work, and suddenly everything around him is frozen. We have a problem ... He embarks on an exciting adventure where many things happen, I cannot tell what because you have to go see.
Rita: And your son? He already knows his father is Kristoff?
Diogo: When we are sitting in the chair seeing the movie FROZEN, I'll say "Daddy is that guy, that guy is daddy," and he will say "Oh Daddy be quiet, I want to watch the movie."
DISNEYLAND PARIS SEGMENT (19:00 mark)
Vanessa Oliveira: Christmas is upon us and, as always, this time is celebrated with great fanfare at Disneyland Paris. The party has begun and the theme this year is the new Disney movie, "Frozen: O Reino do Gelo."
Diogo: For me this movie is like a dream come true, because it is the first time I do the voice of a Disney hero. Look, look who's coming (referring to Mickey Mouse). Yeah!

Diogo: (pointing to Cinderella's Castle) In our wildest dreams of fantasy, princes, princesses and castles, this (castle) tops the list, I mean this is the perfect example of a fantasy castle, right?

Vanessa: And you cannot imagine what will happen here [in the park] tonight.
Diogo: What will happen tonight? Maybe even I know...

Vanessa: No, you don’t.

Diogo: Part of me will be there tonight too, in all the action.

Vanessa: Well ... it will ... but we'll see shortly ...

Diogo: In a little while ... wait ... Until then.

(During the parade they were referring to.)

Diogo: (pointing to "Kristoff" character who is in the parade) I am that guy in FROZEN, Kristoff. He just didn’t say hello because, well, he knows I am the real one.

Disney's "Frozen" opens in US movie theaters on November 27th, and you lucky fans in Portugal can hear Diogo as "Kristoff" in "Frozen: O Reino do Gelo" when it opens in movie theaters there on November 28th.  But!  The rest of us can at least hear Diogo as "Kristoff" in this trailer for "Frozen: O Reino do Gelo."

Diogo welcomes Christmas at Disneyland Paris

Portuguese website pt-starsonline.com posted more pictures of Diogo from his recent trip to Disneyland Paris, where he was on hand to help the park kick off the Christmas season, and to promote Disney's upcoming animated film, "Frozen: O Reino do Gelo" in which Diogo is the voice of "Kristoff."   Along with posting these really cute pictures, the website also states that "Goofy" is Diogo's favorite Disney character.  :)

Diogo discusses "Frozen"

Diogo was interviewed by Renato Duarte of Rádio Renascença while he was at Disneyland Paris recently to promote Disney's upcoming animated film, "Frozen," in which Diogo lends his voice to a character in the Portuguese version of the film.  Translation of the interview is found below the video, and thanks as always to Dina.

Renato Duarte (at the 2:14 mark): Diogo, we just watched the special Disney Christmas Parade, which opens this two-month season. Extraordinary isn't it?

Diogo: It is ... It now seems that yes, Christmas starts to settle in. It's like Christmas knocks at the door, and I am up there at the door, all dressed, and say "Come in Christmas, welcome."

Renato: Ready to welcome Christmas in Disneyland, especially because you are part of a big Disney project this Christmas, the new film "Frozen."

Diogo: For me "Frozen" is a return to the great Disney classics. It's those aspects of their noble history -- romance, fun, action, the prince, the princesses, spells, castles. I'm not the prince, but I am the more "cool" character, cuter, more fun, funnier, because he's the poor guy who sells ice there in their land, and suddenly one of the princesses is bewitched with a spell and everything is frozen.  So imagine the problem for a guy who sells ice, to suddenly have ice everywhere.  Takes away his business, right?  Nobody needs his ice. And he is not interested in helping anyone.  He just wants to solve his problem.  And suddenly he stumbles on this adventure, and, of course, then the noble values are realized. The adventure serves as the pretext for the nobleness and values, which is the theme of the great Disney classics.
