Sources recently revealed that Disney is developing a live-action remake of Hercules but there is no director or casting crew for the movie just yet. We do know one thing though... that Josh Gad does NOT want to play Phil in the movie.
Josh, who voiced Olaf in Frozen tweeted in response to fans calling him to take on the role of Hercules’ bad-tempered mentor, Phil that there is only one man who should take the role… and that’s NOT himself.
Lol. No. No. No. I will not be playing Phil. There is only one man who should be playing Phil and his name is @DannyDeVito pic.twitter.com/vbjPiM8iar

Just in case you didn’t know, Danny DeVito was the one who voiced Phil in the classic. While no decision has been made about the roles just yet, fans are putting their thoughts and hopes out loud.
Okay but if he can’t will you please take on the challenge because there’s literally no one else that could do that level of character acting.
