Hero Overview

Horton is...a giant elephant in the sky! Don't bother looking, he's invisible.
~ Mayor Ned McDodd

Ned McDodd is the Mayor of Whoville and the deuteragonist of Horton Hears a Who!, and a major character in Seussical the Musical. He is the father of 96 daughters and one son. It wasn't until the movie's release that his full name was revealed, and even then he is usually addressed as his title, only being called McDodd once by the narrator's introduction of him ("was devoted, fair, and a little bit odd"), and a few times as Ned by his wife, Sally.

He is voiced by comedian Steve Carell who also did the voice of Gru in Despicable Me and also voiced Hammy the Squirrel from Over the Hedge.

Personality[]

Ned is very optimistic and selfless; as he shows a lot of concern when noticing something out of the ordinary; even becomes stressed. Although he is unsure about facing the Council Chairman, his concern for the safety of the inhabitants of Who-Ville prompts him to try to make everyone aware of the danger.

Likewise, he is a dedicated father with great love for all his children and enjoys spending quality time with them, despite the time and effort involved in caring for 97 children. Although he is very attentive to his 96 daughters, he is more clueless when it comes to his son, with whom he has struggled to connect with for years and sometimes assumes that he knows what JoJo wants.

Appearance[]

Ned wears a blue coat complete with tie and mayoral crest, as well as having brown hair and fur and blue eyes.
