Product Information

Hugh Grant was considered to play Roger for the live-action remake of the film before Jeff Daniels was cast as Roger instead. Throughout the adventure, different sides of Pongo's personality were showcased. He was shown to be intelligent, tactical, and stealthy. With his wits, he was easily able to outsmart the cunning Cruella, and her bumbling henchman, almost flawlessly, and with these assets, Pongo and his family were able to return home safely. Pongo can also be seen several times during " Ask Von Drake"; specifically during the headcount of all the Disney character guests.

Rod Taylor as Pongo, Roger's playful and headstrong pet Dalmatian, Perdita's mate, the father of fifteen, and adopted father of the eighty-four orphaned puppies. He also serves as the film's narrator.Darling, I live for furs, I worship furs! After all, is there a woman in all this wretched world who doesn't? Cruella De Vil is one of the members of Jafar's team, assembled to rule the House of Mouse. However, she and the all of the other villains (except Jafar) immediately scatter out the House before the House of Mouse is restored once again. Cruella has made a handful of appearances in a variety of video games. These include Animated StoryBook: 101 Dalmatians, Disney Sorcerer's Arena, Disney Universe, Disney Infinity, and Disney Villains Challenge. For the roles of dogs, the filmmakers deliberately cast actors with deeper voices than their human owners, so they had more power. [33] Rod Taylor, who had extensive radio experience, was one of the first performers cast in the film. [10] J. Pat O'Malley was a regular voice actor for the Disney studio, having previously voiced several characters in both The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad (1949) and Alice in Wonderland (1951), and was one of Walt Disney's personal favorites. [10] Betty Lou Gerson, who was previously the narrator for Cinderella (1950), auditioned for the role of Cruella de Vil in front of Marc Davis, the character's supervising animator, and sequence director Wolfgang Reitherman, and immediately landed it. [34] While searching for the right accent of the character, she landed on a "phony theatrical voice, someone who's set sail from New York but hasn't quite reached England". [35] During the recording process, Gerson was thought to be imitating Tallulah Bankhead, [36] but she later disputed that she "didn't intentionally imitate her… We both had phony English accents on top of our Southern accents and a great deal of flair. So our voices came out that way". [37] Gerson finished her recording sessions in fourteen days. [34] Lisa Daniels was originally cast in the role of Perdita and recorded about the third of her lines but then got married and moved to New York, with Bauer replacing her for the rest of the film. [10] David Frankham was cast as Sergeant Tibbs in the spring of 1959 and finished his recording within three sessions. [38] Disney originally had Lisa Davis read for the role of Cruella De Vil, but she did not think that she was right for the part, and wanted to try reading the role of Anita instead. [39] Disney agreed, and, after they read the script for a second time, she landed the part. [40] Davis also provided some of live-action reference for the character. [41] For the roles of dogs, the filmmakers deliberately cast actors with deeper voices than their human owners, so they had more power. [33] Live-action reference [ edit ]

Then she next appears in the film when she angrily watches her henchmen watching " What's My Crime". She furiously demands them to start skinning the puppies for a fur coat. She angrily slaps Horace and Jasper when they ask if they can finish the show first, and angrily leaves them in her house to skin the puppies, furiously threatening to call the police if they are not done by morning. She finds Horace and Jasper looking for the puppies who escaped the house and they discover their footprints in the snow. She then vowed to find the dogs "even if it takes until next Christmas". Since the original release of the film, Disney has taken the property in various directions. The earliest of these endeavours was the 1996 live-action remake, 101 Dalmatians, which starred Glenn Close as Cruella De Vil. Unlike the original film, none of the animals had speaking voices in this version. Its success in theaters led to 102 Dalmatians, released on November 22, 2000.Animated Storybook: I Love Fur • Puppies, Oh, Puppies • Twilight Bark • Up the Stair • Cover Yourselves with Soot Lisa Davis as Anita Radcliffe, Perdita's gentle and intelligent owner, Roger's wife, and Cruella's former schoolmate, because of which she, unlike other characters, feels inclined to give her the benefit of the doubt.

Walt Disney originally had Lisa Davis read the role of Cruella. However, she did not think that she was right for the part and wanted to try to read the role of Anita. Disney agreed with her after the two of them read the script for a second time. Cruella originally did not appear in this series, due to it taking place roughly sixty years after the events of the original film but has since been revealed as alive and active. However, there was a small foreshadowed cameo of Cruella in the intro for 101 Dalmatian Street, indicating that she could still be alive.
