See a need, fill a need! This page is trivia about Madame Gasket. Please add any trivia that is related to that article. |
- Although it is unknown why or how she became evil in the first place and hates the outmodes when she is an outmode, she probably does it out of greed to gain profit from the sold ingots. She is one of the few characters to die in the movie.
- She is described by Chris Wedge as "a constantly disappointed, horror of a mother".
- Despite being a female, she was voiced by the British male actor Jim Broadbent.
- Though Ratchet drove the plot of the film, Gasket is the one who was behind the plot as she wanted Ratchet to take over Robot City in the first place. It's also very easy to confuse Ratchet for being the main antagonist instead of Gasket, as the latter had very little screen time compared to the former. Further adding to the confusion is that Madame Gasket is absent in the PlayStation/GameCube tie-in game, with Ratchet being the main antagonist instead of her. She does, however, appear in the Game Boy Advance version as the final boss.
- Gasket is the first antagonist of a Blue Sky Studios film who is a parent. Gasket is also the first female antagonist in a Blue Sky Studios film.
- Ellen DeGeneres, Rosie O’Donnell, Amy Adams, Kristen Bell, Donna Murphy, Joan Cusack, Swoosie Kurtz, Adrienne Barbeau, Jennifer Saunders and Jane Kaczmarek were all considered for the role of Gasket, but it was ultimately decided that Gasket would mistakenly be considered a man. So, Jim Broadbent was cast as the voice of Gasket.
- Gasket is so far the only villainous animated character to be voiced by Jim Broadbent.
- Gasket is the 3rd villain along with Ratchet being the 2nd to come from Blue Sky Studios as Robots was their 2nd movie.
