Prince Hans of the Southern Isles is a fictional character from Walt Disney Animation Studios' animated film Frozen. He is voiced by American actor Santino Fontana. Hans is a prince who takes the role of suitor for Princess Anna of Arendelle. Handsome and charming, he quickly proposes marriage to Anna after bumping into her on the day of her sister Elsa's coronation and she immediately accepts. Despite initially being presented as an honest and noble romantic partner for Anna, he is later revealed to be a deceptive and calculating villain. He was designed to overturn the concept of Prince Charming. As thirteenth in line, Hans is unable to inherit the throne of his own kingdom, so he concocts a scheme to usurp the throne of Arendelle. Hans is one of two leading male characters with whom Anna falls in love alongside Kristoff. He was created to represent romantic love, contrasting with Anna's more realistic relationship with Kristoff. Hans' reveal as a villain has been the subject of mixed reception from critics. While the character's villainy has been praised as an example of toxic masculinity, the unexpected plot twist has been criticised for being upsetting and confusing for younger viewers and also for its lack of foreshadowing. Other critics have considered the character to be a positive shift in Disney's depiction of the traditional Disney prince, a subversion of Prince Charming, and a warning about the dangers of falling in love at first sight.
