While I still would have liked to see Jeff Goldblum do the role, Hank Azaria is proving to fast be an inspired choice for Gargamel.
An intrepid fan caught them filming some scenes on the streets of New York and Azaria is utterly animated in his role.
He looks so great in this, and it pains me that its modern day New York with him looking so perfectly medieval. Maybe he will be transported through time to find the Central Park Smurfs – that might explain his eccentricity.
