-

Frozen 2 is in talks for all the good reasons and now Kristen Bell, who has voiced Anna in the film, has dropped major hints about the upcoming movie. Sharing her experience of working in the animated movie, the actor, who made her Broadway debut with the Adventures of Tom Sawyer, said it “is going to be an adventurou­s and magical campaign”.

When asked what is going to surprise fans the most about Frozen 2, the actor responded: “It is going to be an adventurou­s and magical campaign. I don’t think it will surprise anyone that we are still tackling harder to talk about issues like we did in the first one, like accepting who you are and family is a priority. And there are some of those issues that we talk about and new ones that we talk about sort of metaphoric­ally and I am very proud of it,” reported E! News.

Fans can also count on hearing familiar voices like Dina Menzel and Josh Gad in the film, besides Kristen,

The Frozen 2 voice cast will also include Sterling K Brown and Evan Rachel Wood. According to Kristen, they fit in with the cast from the very beginning.

Kristen also gave a major hint for the fans that the unique point of the movie is the “maturity” of the film but, at the same time, she added, “It is still very kid-safe and kid-friendly and it has grown up with the viewer.”

When asked about what fans can expect from the songs of Frozen 2, the actor replied, “As far as what I think, Evan’s song will be the sleeper hit that people won’t realise they are singing all the time and I think it will be a big one for fans.”

Matt Reeves’ upcoming directoria­l, The Batman, has found its Riddler! American actor Paul Dano has joined the cast of the film as the caped crusader’s archenemy, the Riddler. The Emmy-nominated actor’s new role was announced recently by Warner Bros, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Dano’s character Edward Nashton, the man who in the comics later goes by the name Edward Nygma (Riddler), adopts the villainous persona. The character has been portrayed as a former employee at Wayne Enterprise­s, who idolises Bruce Wayne before turning bad.

Created by Bill Finger and Dick Sprang, The Riddler is a supervilla­in who aims to challenge Batman, leaving clues and riddles to solve in order to catch him. Since debuting in 1948’s Detective Comics No. 140, he is one of the most famous Bat-villains, including some years as a good guy when he realised it was as much fun to solve crimes as to commit them. Frank Gorshin played the villain in the first season of

Dthe classic 1960’s Batman TV series, before John Astin took over the part. Jim Carrey played him in 1995’s Batman Forever, which was directed by Joel Schumacher.

Dano is joining actor Zoe Kravitz, who will play Catwoman/Selina Kyle, Jeffrey Wright as Commission­er Gordon of the Gotham City P.D., and Robert Pattinson as Batman, also known as Bruce Wayne.

Dano was recently nominated for an Emmy for his role in the series Escape at Dannemora, and the actor directed, co-wrote and produced the critically acclaimed 2018 film Wildlife. His other film credits include Little Miss Sunshine (2006), There Will Be Blood (2007), Prisoners and 12 Years a Slave (both 2013) among others.
