In case you’ve been living under a rock for the past few weeks, there is a new filter going around on Instagram that allows users to match with a Disney character. Users can match with characters like Pumbaa, Ursula, Belle, Flounder, and others! There is a wide variety of Disney characters you could potentially match with and even celebrities are getting in on the fun.
Idina Menzel
Idina Menzel, who we all know as the iconic Queen Elsa, also decided to try out the new Instagram filter, but her results were a bit off.
EW asked Menzel (as well as other stars on the Golden Globes red carpet) to try out the Instagram filter to see what Disney character they matched with.

So, of course, Menzel decided to take up the challenge and she was paired with Flounder from The Little Mermaid.
“It never ends up Elsa,” Menzel said on the red carpet.
Josh Gad
Idina Menzel isn’t the only Frozen 2 star taking the challenge. Josh Gad, who everyone knows as the adorable snowman, Olaf, from Frozen and Frozen 2, also decided to try it out, but the results weren’t what he expected.
As you can see, he was a bit surprised when he was matched with Dory from Finding Nemo.
Zelda Williams
But the results aren’t always this far off as Robin Williams’ daughter, Zelda Williams, decided to try the fun new Instagram filter out, too.

And she was matched with no other than Genie, the iconic character from Aladdin that her father is known for voicing!
How To Find The Disney Filter:
If you haven’t yet tried the new Disney filter but are curious what your result would be, there are two different ways you can find it:
- Find a friend’s story that uses the filter. The filter’s name will appear under your friend’s handle in the top left corner. When you click on it, a gray bar will appear that says “try it.” Click on it, and start your selfie video and show the world which character you are.
- Go straight to the source. The filter was created by @arnopartissimo. Under his “saved stories” click on the Disney icon on the far left. It will begin his own story and from there, click on the filter’s name in the top left corner and then click the “try it” button on the pop-up bar.
