Jonathan Groff said Frozen's focus on family rather than the traditional fairy-tale love story, contributed to the film's success.

The Looking star who voiced Kristoff in the hit Disney film said it was "refreshing".



He said: "It's so much about timing and I think that the message is... Frozen is your traditional fairy-tale Disney film with all the great music, and characters like Olaf - but the story was about familial love as opposed to a woman looking for a man."

He continued: "It was so refreshing - I think the concept was so refreshing - and the music was great, and so I think it was a combination of things.

"But it definitely took everybody by surprise."



Groff takes the role of Finch in How To Succeed In Business Without Really Trying - The Musical In Concert - at London's Royal Festival Hall on 19th May.

The 30-year-old has previously been nominated for a Tony Award for his role in Spring Awakening where he starred alongside Glee co-star Lea Michele.
