Lauren Graham says Josh Duhamel ‘Was the PERFECT Addition to Mighty Ducks Cast’

Lauren Graham is praising Josh Duhamel in Mighty Ducks.

Josh Duhamel filled in as the series' principal actor for Mighty Ducks: Game Changers' second season.

The Disney+ show's executive producer and star Lauren Graham, who plays the role of single mother Alex, said she was "blown away" by the Las Vegas alum's desire to join the cast in an exclusive interview with E! News.

"I have always been a fan," she shared.

"Often when there are changes, it just feels like a struggle to make a choice that feels like it will make the show even more fantastic. And that's what this felt like to me."

Josh is a "perfect" addition, Lauren continued, adding, "We're so lucky."

Josh is taking up the position that Emilio Estevez previously had as Gordon Bombay from the Mighty Ducks trilogy. Emilio appeared in season one of the show.
