Bugs Bunny cartoon character

Our favorite Looney Tunes character, Bugs Bunny, is 75 years old. The animated rabbit made its official debut in 1940 in the Oscar-nominated short film "A Wild Hare". Mel Blank gave him a voice, chewing carrots, and the cult line "What's up Doc?"

Since then, the good old Bugs has starred in over 175 films and has become the most famous creation of "Warner Bros." He is also the second most popular cartoon character after Mickey Mouse. They both have stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Bugs was created by a team of animators and artists working with Tex Ivery, one of the cartoonists of the golden age of Hollywood animation. "Warner Bros." featured several animated rabbits, but none of them have the spark and charisma of Bugs. The Brooklyn accent and arrogant behavior make him an absolute legend.

The line 'What's up, Doc?' contributes to building the character of the rabbit - always alert, always keeping things under control, regardless of the dangers that arise.

For nearly eight decades since he was born, Bugs has been used for military propaganda, being a basketball star in the feature film Space Dive. Without exaggeration, he is one of the most recognizable characters in the world. The indifferent crunching of a carrot is "borrowed" from a scene from the 1934 movie "It Happened One Night", where Clark Gable's character leans against a fence, eats carrots, and speaks with a full mouth.
