Frozen's Josh Gad to Star in 'Honey I Shrunk the Kids' Reboot, Original Director to Return!

Josh Gad is set to star in a reboot of the classic movie Honey, I Shrunk the Kids!

The 38-year-old Frozen actor, who voices the character of Olaf, came up with the idea for the film and presented it to Disney, according to Variety.

Joe Johnston, who directed the original 1989 movie, is in talks to return to direct the reboot, which will be titled Shrunk.

Rick Moranis starred in the original film as “Wayne Szalinski, a scientist and father who accidentally shrinks his teenage son and daughter, along with the two brothers from next door, to just a quarter of an inch in size.” Josh will play “Nick, Wayne’s grown-up son, who follows in his father’s footsteps by not only becoming a scientist, but also accidentally shrinking his children.”

Shrunk is being planned as a theatrical release movie.
