A few days before Father’s daythe renowned American media Variety made a list of the 10 most attractive fathers in animated films (The 10 Hottest Dads in Animated Movies), and position 1 is quite new.
The thing is that the first place went to a newcomer to the world of Disney and Pixar: Bill Andresenthe father of Riley in Inside Out 2.
Kyle MacLachlanthe actor who voices the character in the original version, found out about boom that Bill generated on networks and told the American media: “Yes, I heard that rumor. I’m as surprised as you. I don’t understand anything. It could be the mustache”.
Pixar studio head Pete Docter, said that he was on the verge of creating the character without his most characteristic feature. “Dad doesn’t look very good with a mustache,” he said he thought before the film was released, but he chose to use it because the animators were testing Bill’s beard as a “visual indicator of his emotions” and the result had been Well.
Who completes the list? The top 3 was made up of Bill, Chief Benja (Raya and the last dragon) and the king triton (The little Mermaid).
Below they appear Mr Incredible (The Incredibles), Jefferson Davis (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse), Tatsuo (My Neighbor Totoro; the only film that is not part of Disney or Pixar), Zeus (Hercules), Chief Tui (Moana), Hector (Coconut) and king Agnarr (Frozen).
