From the June 21, 2004 issue of TIME magazine:
In Disney's Coop: A Chick Flick
Disney's new animated movie, Chicken Little, picks up where the classic children's tale leaves off. Chicken Little, who was struck by an errant acorn, has discovered that his crusade to tell the king "the sky is falling" was wrongheaded. The movie chronicles the exploits of the now infamous Little, hounded by the media, as he tries to redeem himself. Scrubs' Zach Braff voices the main character—the cast also includes Joan Cusack, Garry Marshall, Amy Sedaris and Steve Zahn—and says the recording sessions have been "so hilarious. We've been ad-libbing and improvising together." That bodes well for the computer-animated feature, which is due out next summer. Chicken Little is a story about public humiliation and the struggle for redemption. For the sake of the beleaguered Mouse House, which has already had to weather a shareholder revolt and an aborted takeover attempt this year, let's hope the tale ends well.
 Amy Sedaris provides the voice of Foxy Loxy |
| Character description from Disney's official Chicken Little website: Foxy is a sports star and the town darling. She's also Chicken Little's main nemesis and delights in constantly reminding him of that fateful day when he mistakenly thought the sky was falling. Foxy is also quite duplicitous. She loves the image of being just the sweetest person around, while assigning her bullying tasks to her not so bright sidekick, Goosey Loosey. When a situation arises where she needs some muscle, she snaps her fingers and Goosey goes into a controlled trance where Foxy can simply point her at her prey. For as outrageous and unsympathetic as Foxy can be, we see cracks from time to time in her veneer. She's got her own insecurities and in the end, we feel, she just wants to be loved like everyone else. |
