History[]

Backstory[]

Francis was once the CEO of Baby Corp (known as Super Colossal Big Fat Boss Baby) who was loved and respected by his coworkers. However, he soon learned that the secret formula that enabled babies to think and talk like adults did not work on him as he was lactose intolerant. Because of this, he was replaced by Big Boss Baby Lady and sent to Earth, where he was later adopted by the Francis family. Francis was absolutely furious at how Baby Corp betrayed him and swore revenge. Growing up to become a middle-aged businessman, Francis founded Puppy Co. to act as a rival to Baby Corp, becoming more popular to the public. He even gave Eugene a job to serve as his right-hand man in his villainous plans.

Role in The Boss Baby[]

Francis first appeared at the beginning of the movie where Tim Templeton explains about his parents' job as workers at Puppy Co. and Francis calls them off-screen to launch a new product as Tim thinks from his imaginative point of view that they actually launch rockets to sell products.

Francis is later shown briefly in a video clip shown by Boss Baby in which he tells his co-workers about his plan to shut down their rival, referring to Baby Corp, with a secret file containing notes about a "Forever Puppy".

Later in the film, the workers take the children to Puppy Co. for the "take your child to work day". There, Tim and the Boss Baby sneak in through the offices to find the 'Forever Puppy' file, but they soon learn too late that it was a trap, as Eugene captures them before confining them in chairs in Francis' office. There, Francis meets the two in person and reveals that he was actually Super Colossal Big Fat Boss Baby from Baby Corp and Boss Baby's idol until he got kicked out for being lactose-intolerant. He then steals the Boss Baby's secret formula, revealing that the 'Forever Puppy' file was nothing more than a ruse to lure the Boss Baby into bringing over the formula. Francis then reveals his true plan to use the formula on newborn puppies to become the "Forever Puppies", and that he plans to distribute and launch them literally throughout the world via Puppy Co.'s in-house-manufactured Forever Puppies rocket transported to Las Vegas to unleash the puppies so that they will have more attention than babies and that Baby Corp will be out of commission as a result, thus leaving Francis to obtain all the love and attention around the world for his own benefit.

With Tim and the Boss Baby as his prisoners, Francis has Eugene to act as a female babysitter named Mr. Lady Man to keep them in check when he tells their parents of his plan to launch the Forever Puppies in Las Vegas. Before leaving, Francis threatens Boss Baby that he will kill Tim's parents if they interfere with his work. However, Tim and Boss Baby escape from Eugene with the help of Jimbo, Staci, and The Triplets. But as the duo get to the airport, Francis quickly pushes Tim's parents in the plane and close their window so they could not see Boss Baby and Tim at the airport.

However, Boss Baby and Tim managed get to Las Vegas by sneaking in a plane full of Elvis impersonators and get to the convention center (where Francis plans to unleash the Forever Puppies) with the help of pop stars who drop them to the center out of kindness. Francis then unleashes the Forever Puppy to the crowd of people watching his speech, just when he suddenly notices his brother Eugene (who had followed the duo in the plane) and notices Boss Baby and Tim, whose parents also notice them. Francis quickly traps Tim' parents in a heart box and takes them to the same rocket in his revenge plan earlier and puts the parents under the rocket to get burned from the rocket's fire to cover his tracks. Tim and Boss Baby try to save their parents, but not before it was foiled by the intervention of Francis, who confronts them and snaps at them for their interference as Time and Baby snap back and as the two argue with Francis while starting the countdown to the rocket, Tim telling him he's nothing like him and Francis telling how Tim could've had his parents to himself again believing he failed because he let the Boss Baby boss him around, but Tim and Baby tell him otherwise that they're partners and tickle him as the Boss Baby and Tim manage to get past him, but he causes them to trip and almost fell into the vat of the formula milk. Tim and the Boss Baby were left clinging on the edge, and Francis walked to step on Tim's clinging hand. Fortunately, Boss Baby, in a rare moment of imagination, was able to leap from the hanging and brings Tim with him and imagines being a pirate and uses his pointer as a sword and, on Tim's head, fights off Francis in a brief sword fight until he overpowers Francis and takes the opportunity to go under him. They push Francis into the formula milk pool and the duo saves their parents and takes the puppies out of the rocket and saves Boss Baby before it (having its gantry pulled back and its umblicals disconnected) flies off.

Having made contact with the formula, Francis is turned back into a baby again, much to his anger. Having lost his temper, Francis angrily swears to make both Tim and the Boss Baby pay and almost engages in another fight with Boss Baby but is stopped by Eugene, who reforms and puts a pacifier in Francis' mouth and lulls him to sleep. Eugene then informs the duo that he will try to raise Francis properly this time around and walks away with Francis in his hands.

The Boss Baby: Family Business[]

Francis is mentioned by Tim’s parents, while explaining to there granddaughter Tabitha, as the mention to her that Tim tried to tell them about Ted Jr., being a boss baby, and their boss trying to kidnap them,

Quotes[]

Puppy Co needs you.
~ Francis heard on the phone during Tim’s story.
And we are on schedule to release the most adorable puppy ever. We're gonna launch it at the pet convention in Las Vegas. Watch out world! It's gonna crush the competition. Look out world! It's gonna crush the competition.
~ Francis' introduction at the start of the film.
Now, it all started at Baby Corp, a long, long time ago. I was a hotshot executive, heading start to the top. Everyone loved me. They gave me a promotion, the Corner Office, and my very own (Boss Baby: ... personal potty.) SHING! I had it all, but then one day, I made a terrible discovery: I was getting... old. The formula wasn't working anymore. It turns out I was lactose Intolerant. (Boss Baby: No...) Yes! I got called in to see the Board of Directors (Tim: Who are the Boring Directors?) The biggest baby bosses of them all! I thought they loved me, but they replaced with someone new... someone younger. (Tim: That's horrible!) All of a sudden, she got all the love, all the attention.... you know how that feels, don't you, Tim? It hurts, doesn't it? (Tim: Yeah, it does. And then what happened?) Well.... they fired me! And took away my special formula. Then they sent me down to live with a f-f-family! (Boss Baby: Oh, Francis, no!) Baby Corp betrayed me, and I'm finally going to get revenge with...the Forever Puppy!
~ Francis explaining his backstory to Tim and the Boss Baby, his most famous quote.
Imagine a puppy that never grows up; a puppy that stays a puppy forever. Once I launch my Forever Puppies to every corner of the world, they'll be so adorable, no one would ever want a baby ever, ever again! The end of BABY CORP!
~ Francis revealing his plan to use the secret formula to make a puppy that never ages and put Baby Corp out of Business.
I'm taking them both with me to Las Vegas, so stay out of my way, I'd hate for them to get...terminated.
~ Francis blackmailing the boys to stay away or he'll take out Tim's parents.
Now you see them (crushes a cookie), and now you don't!
~ Francis to Tim and Boss Baby giving the boys a sign of killing Tim's parents.
Hurry now! Move! We don't wanna miss our flight! (Tim: No!) I warned you!
~ Francis sees the boys before boarding the plane with Tim's parents.
Hey! What are you doing here? (Tim: Mom, Dad!) What are they doing here?(Ted: What are Tim and the baby doing here?) (chuckles nervously) What are any of us doing here, really? (Ted: What is going on here?) (Mom: Hey!) (Tim: He's got my parents!) We're really here to get them. Get them! Get the Forever Puppy!
~ Francis noticing Eugene, Tim and Boss Baby while Ted and Janice also notice them before getting trapped in a heart shaped box by him, and ordering Eugene to get Tim and Boss Baby.
(Computer: Launch initiated.) I'm launching my Forever Puppies and there's nothing you can do about it!
~ Francis yelling at Tim and the Boss Baby in a desperate fit of rage while starting the countdown to the rocket.
Baby Corp stole all the love from me, and now I'm gonna take it back from them!
~ Francis making sure to get his revenge.
You should understand what I’m talking about. You got replaced, just like me! (Tim: No! I’m nothing like you!) Ratty kid! You could have had your parents' love all to yourself again! But no! You blew it! You let that baby boss you around!
~ Francis trying to manipulate Tim but fails, as Tim angrily tells him they are not the same, and arguing with Boss Baby and Tim, foolishly blaming Tim for being “bossed around” by Boss Baby and refusing to give them their parents back.
(laughing) Nothing's gonna get away with my vengeance. Not you, not anybody! Baby Corp. is through! I win! Ha!
~ Francis thinking he has won as he tries stepping on Tim's hand.
ARRRRRRRRRGH! You RUINED EVERYTHING!! That's not FAIR! That's not FAIR!! That's not FAIR!! NOW YOU'RE REALLY GOING TO PAY!!
~ Francis after being transformed back into a baby, having lost his temper, and angrily swearing to make both Tim and the Boss Baby pay, almost engaging in another fight.
Eugene! Put me down! You hear me!? I am the boss of you!
~ Francis' last words before being put to sleep by Eugene, who promises that he’ll be raised right.

Trivia[]

  • He is the fourth main antagonist of a computer-animated Dreamworks film in a row to be the master of his movie's heroes after Smek from Home, Kai from Kung Fu Panda 3, and Chef from Trolls, DreamWorks' three previous computer-animated films.
  • If Francis' plan had succeeded in the way he wanted he would have caused the human race's extinction, as the Forever Puppies would have persuaded people not to have more babies, and as a result, all adults would be dead and on the Earth only the Forever Puppies would have remained as well as other animals that would continue life on the planet.
  • It is not stated in the film what Francis' middle name is, but it is Evan.
  • Francis was supposed to be voiced by Kevin Spacey, who had previously voiced Hopper in Disney/Pixar's A Bug's Life. However, Steve Buscemi replaced him for unknown reasons.
  • Even though Tim says he's nothing like him, Francis could be considered a dark reflection to Tim. Both are men who had good lives until someone new and younger came into their lives (Boss Baby to Tim, Big Boss Baby Lady to Francis) and felt like they would be replaced. However, as the film progresses Tim begins to be really close to Boss Baby and decides to share his parents love with him and accepts him as his brother, while Francis refuses to accept his replacement and becomes bitter and insane and vows to destroy Baby Corp for ruining his life and taking away his love. Francis serves as an example of what Tim might’ve become if he hadn’t learned to share his parents love with his brother.
