Dylan O'Brien is a certified TV and film star, but that doesn't mean he's nailed every audition he's gone out for. In fact, the star of Teen Wolf , Maze Runner , Not Okay , Taylor Swift's All Too Well short film, and much more recently revealed a particularly challenging audition for a high-profile movie. On Thursday, Dylan appeared on Late Night to chat about his new film about the origin of Saturday Night Live , titled Saturday Night .
But he and host Seth Meyers , an SNL alum, took a moment to discuss Dylan's disastrous audition for...
Frozen 2 . Dylan didn't appear in the Frozen sequel, which came out in 2019. He also didn't reveal which character he auditioned for.
While it seems the actor tried his hardest for a shot at being in the film, he did admit to Seth that he did not go into the audition with high hopes. "I knew that I probably wasn't going to get it," he said, considering the movie is, well, a musical. "They're looking for sort of multi-talented, multi-hyphenate people who can act and sing," he said.
Of those two boxes, Dylan said, "I didn't check, to be honest, probably either." "I sang across a desk to the casting associate. I know I can't sing," he said, telling Seth he "absolutely" knew he couldn't sing going into the audition.
"But I just wanted to do it because sometimes it's just good...
I don't always feel like a real actor because I'm not." Considering Dylan admitted he knew he couldn't sing, Seth asked when he thought the casting director realized this.
