Russell
Russell is the lovable chubby little
youngster in Disney/Pixar's UP. Russell
spends most of the movie in
Paradise Falls, South America.
Russell can be seen in Disney/Pixar's UP,
animated short George & A.J, animated short
Dug's Special Mission, and UP the video
game.
Russell is Japanese/American; the first one
in Disney or Pixar's history. Russell lives
with his mother. His mother and father are
separated and the father never comes around
anymore. Carl Fredricksen, Dug
and Kevin are his friends..
Russell dresses in a Junior Wilderness
explorer outfit which consists of a yellow
button up shirt with pockets on the front,
brown shorts with a belt, brown and black
shoes with orange shoelaces, an orange scarf
type cloth around his neck with a gold clip,
a hat that is yellow, backpack with all
sorts of wilderness goodies in it, and a
brown sash over his shoulder with all his
wilderness explorer badges.
Russell was animated by Pete Docter and
Jonas Rivera, he was voiced by
Jordan Nagai.
*FUN FACT* Jordan Nagai didn't even plan on
auditioning for the part, he was there with
his brother and wouldn't stop talking so
they tried him out and loved him.
Russell can be found often at the Magic of
Animation building at Disney Hollywood
Studios, he can also be seen in the Pixar
Pals Countdown to Fun parade at Hollywood
Studios.
