Pretty Boy is a deuteragonist of Netflix animated feature film Back to the Outback. He is former star of Australian zoo who accidentally took the part in journey with Maddie and friends to find home. He is voiced by Tim Minchin.
Personality[]
When people were loving him in the zoo he was proud, arrogant and rude towards others, especially dangerous animals. During the journey, he constantly mocked group's attempts to escape, offended them or various members of USS like calling Maddie a "psycho worm" or white shark Jacinta a "razor face" or blaming them (for "attacks") only out of paranoia. He states that "he is capricorn, so he hates everybody".
We also see that he was afraid of losing his respect and getting dirty during the journey. But he was slowly improving in it and became more loyal, kinder and friendlier koala who decided to comfort saddenned Maddie of her friends' loss and bring them back.
Biography[]
Almost only one thing known about his past is that he lost his mother after birth and was grabbed by humans and taken to the zoo where he became a mascot.
Back to the Outback[]
While Maddie and her friends were abused for being monsters, he was loved by audience. When they decided to escape the zoo, he tried to call guards for them but he was stopped by Nigel who poisoned him to pass him out. But accidentally he flied in front of the camera and it took a photo with his creepy face. Group decided to take him with them not to make him reveal them. After jumping, Maddie and her friends rush out to sea, dragging Pretty Boy with them so that he doesn't warn anyone at least as far as town.
The group then crosses over to a bird's nest and as they gaze at the stars, they panic when they see a shark approaching them. Pretty Boy regains consciousness and has an argument with Maddie before the marine predator emerges from the water to turn out to be just a friendly female shark named Jacinta who is also a member of the U.S.S. (Uglies Secret Society), a group of animals misunderstood due to being seen as freaks, who will step in to help the Leaking Five whenever they say the password. Jacinta then takes the group to the Sydney shore in the early morning hours.
After saying goodbye to Jacinta, Pretty Boy separates from the gang with his usual condescension, leaving the quartet to quietly advance through the town until a furious mob chases the koala out as they believes he has rage. Cornered all over the place by humans, Maddie tries vainly to reason with them and slaps Pretty Boy when he tries to deliver her to save his own skin. The gang manages to make it out after Maddie has had time to say the password, involving redback spiders who lead the escapees into the sewers through the manhole they were standing on.
As they moves through the sewers, the tape is then transported through the pipes that the fugitives end up appreciating unlike the frightened koala until it is expelled to the surface on a window washer platform. Chased by Chaz and Chazzy, they escape by grabbing an ice cream truck that stops next to a school. In the classroom, they meet two duck toads that Maddie releases from their cage and learn from them that the school buses are passing towards the Outback. They first hang on to the wrong bus, but Zoe's idea allows them to climb onto the roof of the right vehicle.
Later, friends were driving on the bus and having a big reunion, it was interrupted by Chaz's and Chazzie's arrival. Pretty boy woke up and tried to call them to take him but Chaz shot him with a dart. Group decided to hide behind him and jump in the bus only threatening children. After Pretty Boy is thrown by a Chaz warning the children of their dangerousness, the foursome manage to get off the bus with the help of a girl who can see that they are not bad.
Crashing into Pretty Boy while falling off a cliff, Maddie and the koala argue again, the snake having enough of the mammal's nastiness and her urge to return to the never-ending zoo while criticizing each other for their different lifestyles, ending with Pretty Boy laughing at Maddie's suggestion to be more than cute, much to Maddie's annoyance. Chaz then accidentally stumbles upon them, capturing Maddie under a piece of wood as the other three fall into a crevice blocked by the zookeeper's hat. Pretty Boy tried to make Chaz grab him but hunter pushed him calling "filthy has-been". He was shocked by this word and Chaz's attempt to tranqualize Maddie and utters the password and three Tasmanian Devils tumble to the rescue of the gang, scaring Chaz away. Now guided by their savior, Maddie takes the opportunity to tell Pretty Boy that his act proves he no longer hates her, although Pretty Boy continues to claim otherwise.
Successively directed towards the Outback by the Tasmanian devil, bats, dung beetles, bushpigs and a platypus through the wilderness, the gang stops for the night not far from Ayers Rock after three weeks of walking. As she gazes at the stars, Maddie thinks of Jackie and how happy she would have been to be here with them. She then sings her childhood song to her friends, putting them to sleep with the exception of Pretty Boy. The koala and the snake begin to bond and then Maddie admits to feeling betrayed by Chaz since she believed he cared for her before seeing that she was just another monster for his show. However, she puts her past behind her, thinking only of the better life that awaits them.
The next day, the gang passes by a koala tree that Pretty Boy quickly joins without even saying goodbye to the others, offending Maddie even though she ends up trying to hide that she will miss the koala very much.
When Maddie asks outback inhabitants to help her save her captured friends and they don't agree he accidentally arrives warning them about terrible consiquences. Pretty Boy says that he didn't like living with other koalas and relaxes crying Maddie saying he wants to help her. They stole fire truck and reached Chaz's jeep and bikers.
While Pretty Boy takes on the bikers, Maddie walks up the ladder lying down to reach the moving jeep where Nigel apologizes for taking Maddie away from her family, only for Maddie to declare them her family. The trio then freed themselves thanks to Nigel's shrill cries and after taking a sidecar motorcycle, the gang fled through a ravine. Always pursued, they receive the invaluable help of the animals of the Outback.
The dung beetles throw enormous balls of earth from the heights which provoke the pilings of all the vehicles and the gang finds themselves in spite of themselves on the edge of a cliff on the firefighter's ladder like a seesaw with Chazzy suspended above emptiness. When Maddie tries to help the boy, Chaz calls him a monster again, prompting Maddie to confront him by fully identifying herself as a poisonous snake while stating that she is not a monster before biting into Chaz's bracelet. to act as a rope at the other end of the ladder that Chaz just has to pull to bring up Chazzy and Pretty Boy before the ladder falls down.
In the stampede, Maddie molts and Pretty Boy finds her even more beautiful. Chaz then makes peace with the five animals for having saved his son, especially towards Maddie whom he sees again as the baby snake that he once found while thanking her from the bottom of his heart. The gang then return to the Outback where they are greeted as heroes by their fellows get reunite happily with Jackie, who start the agency, and finally settles in their new home after such a long journey.
