I will be Easter's new king!
~ Carlos claiming to be the new ruler of Easter.

Carlos is the main antagonist of the Illumination's 2nd full-length feature film Hop.

He is the former leader of the Easter Chicks and E.B. and Fred O'Hare's arch-nemesis. He is a chick who served as the second-in-command to the Easter Bunny known as Mr. Bunny, until he attempted to overthrow him.

He was also played by Hank Azaria, who also voiced Phil in the same film, Snake Jailbird, Johnny Tightlips, The Grand Pumpkin, Killer Toupée, The Leader, The Devil, Cesar, Don Vittorio D'Maggio, Adolf Hitler, Dexter Colt, Frank Grimes, Jr., and Les Moore in The Simpsons, Kahmunrah in Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian, as well as Whit in Run Fatboy Run, Venom in Spider-Man: The Animated Series and Gargamel in the live action film adaptation of The Smurfs.

Personality[]

Carlos is a very traitorous and arrogant chick who hates rabbits, believing that they have it easier than him. He is also shown to have a convincing and fake compassionate persona. Plus, he is also mainly annoyed by Phil's stupidity. Carlos would do anything to rule Easter. Plus, his fake kind persona happened to get the bunnies' attention since he was also the second-in-command.

Furthermore, he keeps his plans as a secret very well.

History[]

Carlos first appears at the start of the film in the Easter Factory, scolding and scaring E.B. for eating marshmallow chicks coming out of one of the factory's machines. Luckily, E.B.'s father and Carlos' boss Mr. Bunny arrives and tells Carlos that E.B. was just taste-testing the marshmallows chicks. Mr. Bunny tastes them and tells Carlos that there's too much marsh and not enough mallow. Carlos passes this information to his lieutenant Phil, but is annoyed at him for dancing on the job. As E.B. leaves to continue his tour of the Easter Factory, he bids farewell to Carlos, who sarcastically tells him to enjoy his life of privilege and gives E.B. and Mr. Bunny a look of annoyance as they walk away.

Twenty years later, after E.B. runs away from Easter Island on the night of his coronation as the next Easter Bunny to go to Hollywood to be a drummer, Carlos (having grown tired of being second-in-command) tries hinting to Mr. Bunny that he should be his successor (such as hopping (which causes him to run out of breath) and putting on fake rabbit ears). However, Mr. Bunny fails to understand these hints and believes that Carlos is merely trying to cheer him up. Annoyed, Carlos later declares to the other chicks his plan to overthrow Mr. Bunny and become the new ruler of Easter.

After E.B.'s human friend Fred is brought to Easter Island by the Easter Bunny's Royal Guard the Pink Berets (who had been sent out to find E.B.) after he supposedly "killed" E.B. (though it was really a turkey) and is held captive and confronted by Mr. Bunny and Carlos about killing E.B. Carlos pretends to be upset about E.B.'s death, silences Fred (who tries to reveal the truth of the decoy) and seizes control of the Easter factory and imprisons the factory's rabbit workers. Mr. Bunny orders the Pink Berets to seize Carlos, but the chick fights back by immobilizing the Pink Berets in chocolate. He then had Mr. Bunny and Fred tied in black licorice and placed above a vat of boiling liquid candy to be submerged in. He then declares plans to give the children of the world clumps of bird seed, dried crickets, and worms instead of candy and chocolate.

Despite being told by the Easter Bunny warning him that the Egg of Destiny is too dangerous to be weird in the hands of a chick, Carlos ignores him and continues to wield it. Luckily, E.B. arrives and confronts Carlos, but is immobilized in gummy candy and tossed into the chocolate bunny carving line. Fred and Mr. Bunny manage to free themselves by eating away the licorice and E.B. survives by dodging the blades.

Carlos, now a chick-bunny hybrid due to the magic of the Egg of Destiny (a magical staff used by the Easter Bunny), engages battle with E.B. and defeats him easily due to his increased size. Carlos then tells E.B. by saying that Mr. Bunny was a fool into thinking that he could ever amount to anything. He then tries to lead the Egg Sleigh (the sleigh used by the Easter Bunny to travel the world to deliver eggs and candy) out with Phil directing with light up wands. To stop the launch, E.B., knowing that Phil loves dancing, improvises a drum session. Uncontrollably driven to dance to the beat, Phil provides the wrong signals, causing a crash and Carlos is subdued and drops the Egg of Destiny, which is then claimed by E.B. After being defeated, Carlos is made to pull the Egg sleigh (now ridden by the new Co-Easter Bunnies E.B. and Fred) and Phil is made the new head of the Easter Chicks.

Trivia[]

  • Carlos is the first Illumination antagonist to be an animal, the second was El Pollito from Despicable Me 2 and the third was Snowball from The Secret Life of Pets.
  • Oddly despite being an adult, Carlos does not age and remains as chick throughout the film despite a chick being the infant stage of a chicken. The reason could be that Carlos and the other chicks are kept young looking by magic, due to Easter not featuring chickens in their adult form.
  • Carlos speaks with a Spanish accent. Coincidentally, Spanish is the language of Easter Island, the location of the Easter Factory.
  • Carlos holds the distinction of being the only villain in a live-action movie the film studio Illumination has made as they have produced animated films before and after this one.
