Bugs Bunny is an
animated cartoon character, created in the late 1930s by
Leon Schlesinger Productions (later
Warner Bros. Cartoons) and
voiced originally by
Mel Blanc.
[5] Bugs is best known for his starring roles in the
Looney Tunes and
Merrie Melodies series of animated
short films, produced by
Warner Bros. Though a similar character called Happy Rabbit debuted in the WB cartoon
Porky's Hare Hunt (1938) and appeared in a few subsequent shorts, the definitive character of Bugs is widely credited to have made his debut in director
Tex Avery's
Oscar-nominated film
A Wild Hare (1940).

Bugs is an
anthropomorphic gray and white
rabbit or hare who is famous for his flippant, insouciant personality. He is also characterized by a
Brooklyn accent, his portrayal as a
trickster, and his catch phrase "Eh...What's up, doc?". Due to Bugs' popularity during the
golden age of American animation, he became not only an American
cultural icon and the official
mascot of
Warner Bros. Entertainment, but also one of the most recognizable characters in the world. He can thus be seen in the older Warner Bros. company logos.

Since his debut, Bugs appeared in
more than 150 cartoons produced between 1940 and 1964.
[7] He has also starred in feature films, compilations, TV series, music records, comics, video games, award shows,
amusement park rides, and commercials. He has also appeared in more films than any other cartoon character,
[8] is the 9th most-portrayed film personality in the world,

Hollywood Walk of Fame.
