All About Chuck Jones Characters
If you are looking for your favorite Chuck Jones Looney Tunes Characters, then have a glance at our full list!
Bugs Bunny
When it comes to comic heroes like Bugs Bunny, it can be difficult to work with them. Bugs is such a strong character that he can easily seem to be a bully unless he receives some serious knocks in the course of a story.
Daffy Duck
Most of us know when we should stop talking, ad so does Daffy, but his where to stop is way beyond ours, and he repeatedly lands himself in trouble by going too far.
Elmer Fudd
Elmer Fudd is smaller than many of Bugs’s adversaries, but he carries a big gun, which makes even the saddest of wimps dangerous.
Porky Pig
You can appreciate his willingness to cheerfully and competently bring believability and humor to roles that at the outset would seem to be silly at best. He is, in short, a first-rate actor in supporting roles.
Road Runner
The Road Runner did not change a lot visually over the years; he has very little personality, as he is a force. Chuck Jones told students that the secret of drawing the Road Runner is learning how to draw dust.
The Grinch
In the book, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, Dr. Seuss had already carefully determined who the Grinch was (or is). The job of the animators was to find out how to match in movement the believability of that character.
Marvin Martian
Marvin is one of those mysterious creatures that come out of the sky or up the stairs late at night. You don’t know what he thinks, and you don’t want to know. It is not simple happenchance that he appears to have no character. He is a Martian, and you cannot expect to find much personality in there.
Pepe Le Pew
If you can’t do it yourself–animate somebody who can–Pepe le Pew, for example.Pepe’s sexual confidence is absolute. He sees rejection as no more than a temporary setback, and every pursuit as an intereesting variation on the road to inevitable success.
Wile E. Coyote
Without the Acme Co., where would Wile E. Coyote be? And, for that matter, where would the Acme Co. be without Wile E. Coyote? It is what is called in some quarters, “a perfect symbiotic relationship,” which Noah Webster defines as: “A couple of different living things living together in close association for mutual benefit.”
Sylvester
Chuck Jones’s Sylvester looks the same as the Sylvester directed by Friz Freleng, but there the resemblance ends. Jones’s Sylvester doesn’t speak in his cartoons with the exception of “The Scarlet Pumpernickel”. He appeared with Porky Pig as his pet who sees the danger they’re in while Porky does not.
Gossamer
This orange, lump-headed monster made his first appearance in Hare-Raising Hare, 1946. His one memorable line, was when it was pointed out to him that they were being watched by an audience, he cried out “PEOPLE” and ran out of the frame.
Charlie Dog
He is so unquestionably a dog. Charlie is merely trying to find a master and a home, which are perfectly natural ambitions for any dog. Comedy is always concerned wtih simple matters such as this.
Marc Antony
Marc Anthony is your basic big bulldog, but in Feed the Kitty he falls in parental love with a little kitten, in the way any of us might fall for a cat or another small animal.
Ralph Wolf
Ralph Wolf was a storyman at Warner Bros. cartoons, and he gave his name to the red-nosed version of Wile E. Coyote.?
Sam Sheepdog
The sheepdog is always aware of Ralph’s every move, but we don’t know how he sees through that curtain of hair.
Sniffles
Created by Chuck Jones in 1939, Sniffles went to star in 12 cartoons directed by Jones between ’39 and 1946.
Claude Cat
Claude Cat is all cats, and not. He’s persnickety, co-dependent, and independent. He’s easily bamboozled and easily frightened. The slightest variation in his day causes him no end of grief.
Tommy Cat
Cute and sweet, and easily taken advantage of, Tommy Cat subs for his sick father one night guarding the kitchen to the delight of the rats.
Witch Hazel
Witch Hazel is both mischievous and compassionate. With a keen sense of humor and wild black hair from which hairpins fly whenever she zooms off on her broom, she proves repeatedly that appearances are deceiving.
The Three Bears
According to Chuck Jones, The Three Bears were fun characters to work with but hard characters to draw because their form reflected their character in a way that Bugs’s or Daffy’s form didn’t.
Hubie and Bertie
Hubie is the brains of the duo and Bertie is the muscle.
Michigan J. Frog
If you’re going to produce an animated cartoon about a frog who will exercise his glorious tonsils in glorious song, this film is for you!
Ralph Phillips
Audiences responded to Ralph. Thus, recognizes his desire to do something dramatic to impress his teacher.
