It’s hard to believe that Rick and Morty and Who Framed Roger Rabbit have anything in common. One is a hilarious and boundary-pushing adult animated series, while the other is a beloved fantasy comedy from the 1980s. However, there is an unexpected connection between the two. June 21 marked the 35th anniversary of Who Framed Roger Rabbit, leading to a surge of appreciation for Roger, Eddie Valiant, and the stunning Jessica Rabbit.
Interestingly, Kathleen Turner, the voice behind Jessica Rabbit, also lent her voice to a character in Rick and Morty. Turner has had an impressive voice acting career in addition to her success in live-action roles, including two Golden Globe Awards and multiple nominations for prestigious awards. In Rick and Morty, she portrays the Monogatron leader’s Wife, a character featured in the second episode of the fourth season titled “The Old Man and the Seat.”
In this episode, Jerry encounters Glootie, a businessman who convinces him to develop an app. Despite a clear warning not to develop the app, Jerry ignores it and chaos ensues. Turner’s character, the Monogatron leader’s Wife, engages in a humorous interaction with her husband as they bicker and argue, allowing Rick and Morty to escape. Though a small role, Turner’s performance stands out as one of the most memorable moments in the series.
In addition to her work in animation, Turner has voiced characters in other popular shows like The Simpsons, Family Guy, and King of the Hill. Her impressive live-action filmography includes notable films such as Romancing the Stone, Peggy Sue Got Married, and The War of the Roses. Beyond her acting career, Turner is a chairperson for Planned Parenthood of America and has actively supported various causes and organizations.
So, it’s time to revisit these two vastly different projects featuring one of Hollywood’s biggest names, Kathleen Turner.
