He is voiced by Santino Fontana.

Official Disney Bio
"Hans is a handsome royal from a neighboring kingdom who comes to Arendelle for Elsa’s coronation. With 12 older brothers, Hans grew up feeling practically invisible—and Anna can relate. Hans is smart, observant and chivalrous. Unlike Elsa, Hans promises he’ll never shut Anna out; he just might be the connection she’s been waiting for all these years."

Frozen
Initially, Hans is portrayed as a real hero. Not only does he seem to be in love with Anna, he also shows that he is a noble soul, seeing that he insisted to be left in charge of the kingdom while Anna went after her sister Elsa, and later going all the way to the North Mountains just to rescue Anna. However, when Anna's heart is frozen and she is brought to Hans to receive a kiss from him, just before the kiss he pulls back, chuckles, and says "If only there was someone who loved you." He then reveals his true motives: Hans wooed Anna for the purpose of marrying into a royal family and becoming king, because he has no chance of inheriting the throne of the Southern Ises as thirteenth inline. He then leaves Anna alone to freeze and sentences Elsa with a death charge, but Elsa's powers become strong enough for her to break out of the castle dungeon and escape. Later, when  the two sisters are outside in an uncontrollable blizzard caused by Elsa, Hans confronts the queen. She asks him to take care of Anna, and Hans goes as far as to lie to her that Anna was killed by her magic. While Elsa is busy grieving her sister's death, Hans prepeares to finish her by striking her with his sword when Anna leaps in front of Hans just before freezing solid to save Elsa. The recoil from hitting the frozen Anna was enough to shatter the sword and knock Hans unconscious. Anna's sacrifice also allowed Elsa to realize that it was love that could reverse her devastating ice powers and revive Anna. Hans awakens to find that the eternal winter has ended, and is shocked when he sees Anna alive and well, since he thought her heart had been frozen. Anna walks over and knocks Hans off the boat they're standing on, telling him that the only frozen heart was his. Afterwards, he is put in the brig on a ship to be sent back to his own kingdom to deal with his brothers for his behavior.

 * Anna, for while both were shut out for many years, she actually wants to reconnect with her sister and would do anything to reconnect with her.

 * Olaf, for while he represents the love between Elsa and Anna, Hans represents the breaking of Elsa and Anna's bond.
