Josh Gad reflects on missing out on a role in ‘Avatar’
Tuesday, 21 January 2025 () Josh Gad reminisces about nearly landing a role in James Cameron’s 2009 film Avatar. Despite Cameron’s positive feedback, Gad was ultimately not cast due to his digital Na’vi appearance. The part went to Joel David Moore, and Avatar became the highest-grossing film ever, with its sequel also achieving great success.
Josh Gad was denied the chance to star in 'Avatar' because he resembled a "tall, overweight Smurf" when he digitally turned into one of the blue characters.
