Trivia

• Chris O'Dowd was originally going to be the voice of Tigger in Disney's live-action film Christopher Robin, but during a screen test, audiences reacted negatively on how he voiced the character, so he stepped down late in the film's production and Jim Cummings, who also voiced Pooh in the film, replaced him.
