Trivia
- O'Dowd also portrayed Richard in the Marvel Studios film, Thor: The Dark World.
- O'Dowd was originally going to voice Tigger in the Disney live-action film, Christopher Robin as this would have been his first Disney role in 2018 while Shamus would be his second role in the aforementioned year. However, O'Dowd's test voice for Tigger was negatively received by fans for his participation as Tigger; as a result, Jim Cummings replaces O'Dowd in the role of Tigger in the final version of the film, who also voiced Pooh in the aforementioned film.
