- “Gary, quit it! You're gonna start a howl!”
- ―Larry
Larry[1] is a male wolf in Zootopia. He works as a security guard at Cliffside Asylum.
Physical Appearance[]
Larry is a tall, thickly-furred wolf. His coat is a stormy gray, mottled with white and beige, and his eyes are ice blue. He has tall, pointy ears and a large, dark nose. He sports a dark gray turtleneck shirt, on top of which he wears a black trench coat, along with navy blue pants.
Personality[]
Larry is a cautious and responsible security guard. He is loyal to his wolf colleagues, whom he tries to keep out of trouble.
Development[]
Until the end of production, Larry had not been properly named, being labeled simply as "Wolf Guard 2"[2].
After a number of questions via Twitter, director Byron Howard came up with the name "Larry", due to its closeness to "Gary", which writer Jared Bush approved.[3]
Role in the Film[]
"Gary, quit it! You're gonna start a howl!"
Larry is seen among the wolves guarding the entrance to Cliffside Asylum. When Judy Hopps induces Gary to start howling, he rushes to stop him, attempting to prevent him and the other wolves from starting a "howl" and losing focus. But then Judy howls again, tempting both Gary and Larry, along with other wolves on the asylum grounds, into howling along. This gives Judy and her partner Nick Wilde a chance to slip past the wolves and gain access into the asylum.
Relationships[]
Gary[]
Gary works with Larry as a fellow guard. Rather than anger or disappointment, Larry shows concern for him when he is about to get the all other wolf guards howling while on duty. The two appear to be on friendly terms, as they are seen having dinner at Rainforest Riviera together during their time off.
Trivia[]
- Larry is voiced by Rich Moore, who also voices Doug Ramses.
- Larry was given a name because the fan community started to ship him with Gary. In the Zootopia+ episode Dinner Rush, Larry and Gary are shown in the background having dinner together.
