He was close to having the lead role in "The Whale".

He revealed that he was offered the role. I think he would have been terrible.

It would have been bad. I cannot picture a comic like James Corden in a serious movie like that.

He's done drama, but he would have been terrible in that specific role. The character is likable.

I detest James Corden. I'm glad Fraser got his chance for deserved recognition.

No one likes Corden.

Well yeah, he's a fat slob.
