Fantastic Mr. Fox: George Clooney
The titular role of this Wes Anderson classic went to none other than George Clooney. This film was actually adapted from a Roald Dahl novel way back when (roughly 50 years ago). By nabbing Clooney as the leading ‘voice’ for this project, Anderson procured a guy who not only has a recognizable tone, but one who’s constantly perfected the leading man role — even if he’s technically an animated fox in this case.
