Close up of the original production animation drawing of Zazu.
Zazu is a red-billed hornbill and served as majordomo to Mufasa, Scar, and later Simba. The name "Zazu" means "(they) moved" in Hebrew. Zazu was designed by veteran Disney animator Joe Grant and animated by Ellen Woodbury, Randy Cartwright, Barry Temple, and Dan Tanaka. The famed British actor and comedian Rowan Atkinson provided the voice.
This is a very nice and rare original production animation drawing of Zazu. He is one of the most memorable characters in the film and this is a large, full figure image. Zazu is eyes open, his wings are lifted, as are his tail feathers. A great piece of animation artwork, perfect for any collection!
