Star Wars' prequel trilogy has been recapped by Frozen's Olaf

Ever fancied having the Star Wars prequel trilogy recapped in full by Frozen's Olaf? Well, you're in luck.

Josh Gad vowed to go through the events of The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith if he got 10,000 retweets on a post encouraging US citizens to vote in the upcoming presidential election.

Well, he managed to achieve just that.

Following through on his promise Gad wrote on Instagram: "Olaf Recaps Star Wars. 10,000 people retweeted my message to #VOTE and in return I vowed to recap the Star Wars Franchise as Olaf. Here is Part 1: The Prequels! Thank you all for watching and more importantly for VOTING!!!!"

In the video recap, Gad (in the voice of Olaf) points out the "racially insensitive" nature of the Jedi, while also poking fun at "walking Happy Meal" Jar Jar Binks and the trade negotiations featured in The Phantom Menace.

Olaf also notes that Anakin Skywalker's fate to turn into Darth Vader "could have been so different with one day a week of counselling". Well, he's not wrong.

Speaking about the short, co-director Trent Correy said: "This is an idea that started to form when I was an animator on the first Frozen.

"[Co-director] Dan Abraham and I are so grateful and excited to have had the opportunity to direct this short, working with our incredible colleagues at Walt Disney Animation Studios."
