Gabriel Basso has made a surprising claim about his role in Nickelodeon’s teen sitcom iCarly.

The actor, known for his role in The Big Sky and The Red Road, made the revelation while reflecting on his career, during an interview.

The 30-year-old shared that he forgot that he once played the character of Freddie look-alike on iCarly.

The role involved him portraying a character who resembled Freddie Benson, iCarly's iconic tech-savvy friend, played by Nathan Kress.

Fans of the show were quick to point out the amusing detail, as it had been years since the episode aired.

Basso, now in his late 20s, shared how his career has evolved since then, discussing his more recent projects and growth as an actor. 

While his iCarly appearance was a small role, it stands as an interesting milestone in his career.

He humorously joked that his time as a Freddie look-alike wasn’t something he frequently revisited, as he’s moved on to more mature roles since.

Fans of iCarly were amused by the forgotten cameo, and Gabriel Basso's candid admission sparked nostalgia for the early 2000s sitcom and his appearance had added a fun layer to the series.
