Casting Call: Elsa and Anna (Once Upon a Time)
Once Upon a Time‘s season finale left audiences gasping with shock and excitement when they made it clear that Elsa from Frozen will be making an appearance in Storybrooke. Producers have hinted that they want to bring in some other Frozen characters as well and really, you can’t have Elsa without Anna. Here are my choices for who they should cast as the lovely sisters from Arendelle.
1. Idina Menzel and Kristen Bell
This one may seem like an obvious choice but it should. Sure, they don’t necessarily look the part but it doesn’t matter because they ARE the characters. Plus, there’s always wigs.
2. Natalie Dormer and Sophie Turner
Game of Thrones fans have been dreamcasting these two as Elsa and Anna for a while now and I think it would work. Natalie is an amazing actress who can pull off ice queen perfectly and Sophie would be wonderful as the sweet and bubbly Anna. Plus, we already know they have great chemistry.
3. Sarah Gadon and AnnaSophia Robb
These two are my personal picks for the roles. Sarah Gadon’s quiet but intense beauty and underrated talent would make her a match for Elsa while Annasophia’s sweet yet spunky attitude makes her Anna in my eyes.
4. Dakota and Elle Fanning
The most important part of casting Elsa and Anna would be the chemistry and their sisterly bond. A pair of actual sisters could help to capture this. Not to mention Dakota and Elle are both extremely talented actresses.
5. Dianna Agron and Molly C. Quinn
Both ladies are talented and beautiful and both seasoned TV veterans. Plus, they look the parts perfectly.
6. Demi Lovato and Selena Gomez
Who says the sisters have to be white? I think the show could use a little diversity and these ladies are already quite familiar with the Disney brand. Demi’s already halfway there with her amazing rendition of “Let it Go” and Selena’s perky attitude would work for Anna.

What a FABULOUS article! I love so many of these choices, but my personal favourite would be Natalie Dormer and Sophie Turner 🙂 I ADORE that idea.
I don’t really see the last one though. Demi, I like…but I just am not really convinced of Selena Gomez’s talent just yet.

Natalie Dormer would be an amazing Elsa! And I do hope the showrunners choose to have Anna and Olaf in the show too (at the very least). Elsa’s story wouldn’t be the same without them.

Oh the choice of Natalie and Sophie would be absolutely perfect! I am so excited. I need to get back into Once Upon a Time, though. I haven’t watched it for ages!

The chemistry is what is most important ❤

I adore Idina Menzel, but she is currently in contract on Broadway in her Tony-nominated role in If/Then. Unfortunately, when they make movie versions of musicals, they often cast big, famous names as opposed to true talent. Whoever is cast in Once Upon a Time, I only hope that the ladies can portray the roles with passion and heart.

Natalie & Sophie of course! They both are amazing actress, they have great chemistry and they look the part. I mean Natalie’s even mentioned that she has found a little sister in Sophie in real life. What more do you need?

I think it is important that they look the part AND can act! I would choose Australian actress Cariba Heine (from H2o: Just Add Water, Dance Academy, etc) for Elsa and maybe Debby Ryan for Ana?
