Josh Gad announces between takes. It's April 2018 on the U.K. set of the fantasy film , and Gad, decked out in a mangy jacket and extra fur, has brought to life one of the book series' key characters: Mulch Diggums.Described as with fairies, Disney's adaptation of Eoin Colfer's beloved novel stars Ferdia Shaw as the titular Artemis, who teams up with a fairy LEPRecon officer, Holly Short, to search for his missing father.
Mulch Diggums is a kleptomaniac dwarf and smelly schemer drawn into the adventure alongside Dame Judi Dench as an elf commander and Nonso Anozie as Artemis' trusty bodyguard, Butler.On set, Gad cracked jokes with ET and fellow reporters as he spoke about his experience on the Kenneth Branagh-directed film.
