Jasper was voiced by the late J. Pat O'Malley in the 1961 animated film, Michael McKean in the 1997-1998 TV series, and is now voiced by Jeff Bennett. He was portrayed by Hugh Laurie in the 1996 live action film, who also played David Nix in Tomorrowland and Dr. Gregory House in House, MD and by Joel Fry in the 2021 live action film, Cruella. Horace was voiced by the late Frederick Worlock in the 1961 animated film, the late David Lander in the 1997-1998 TV series, and is now voiced by Maurice LaMarche, was portrayed by Mark Williams in the 1996 live action film, and Paul Walter Hauser in the 2021 live action film Cruella.
Jasper enjoys drinking alcohol, playing darts and watching What's My Crime? with his younger brother, Horace. He is the taller of the two. Horace is shorter, fatter and loves sandwiches and cakes given his overweight appearance. They are hired to dognap Pongo and Perdita's 15 Dalmatian Puppies to be used in making Cruella's fur coat.
Although he is not smarter than Jasper, Horace appears to have more insight and is often shown to correctly guess what the Dalmatians' plans are. He is more likely to complain and quit. Jasper is more determined to finish a job, but also spontaneous, diabolical, impulsive, and arrogant, so he refuses to believe that the Dalmatians' are intelligent. He also has little respect for the cowardly and immature Horace for the most part, often angrily telling him to "shut up" when annoyed by him. Although Jasper and Horace carry out Cruella's deeds, they only do it for money and not for any enjoyment. That said, because of their greed, they are as equally aggressive as their boss with their approach.
Horace fears her wrath, but Jasper shows no respect for Cruella, due to often being annoyed with her bossiness. As a result of this, Cruella is annoyed by Jasper more than Horace for his lack of respect toward her. Whereas Horace sat, in silent tears for his defeat, Jasper even angrily told her to shut up at the end of the first film after she started whining about her scheme failing. In the sequel, the duo finally stand up for themselves, reform, get pardoned for their part in kidnapping the puppies, and open up a clothes corporation. However, despite their reformation in the sequel, most projects such as Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom still depict them as antagonists, as does the 1996 live action remake of the same name of the 1961 animated classic.
Biography[]
101 Dalmatians (1961)[]
In 101 Dalmatians (1961), they sneak into Roger and Anita's house, by attempting to pass themselves as repairmen from the Electric Company (Kanine Krunchies deliverymen in the sequel and musical version) Nanny angrily refuses to let them in since Roger and Anita are gone but they force themselves in, and Jasper evilly toys with Nanny up in the attic, while Horace greedily steals the puppies, and they transport them to Cruella's former home, Hell Hall (a.k.a., "The Old De Vil Place"). Soon after, the dognapping is covered by the newspapers, causing them to attempt to back out. They call Cruella and ask for their payment, but she angrily refuses to pay until the job is done and hangs up in anger after Jasper accidentally insults her while angrily trying to silence a complaining Horace.
At Hell Hall, the henchmen laze about watching TV and eating, along with the stolen puppies and 84 bought puppies. This is where their potential kindness comes into play, as they allow them to watch TV but angrily tell Lucky to move so they can see "What's My Crime?". Eventually, an incensed Cruella arrives and furiously tells Horace and Jasper that she "wants the job done first thing in the morning", or she'll report them to the police (who, at this moment, have extended their search to their area and will soon find them). Though Jasper notes that the puppies were not big enough for the amount of coats Cruella apparently desires, she decides to settle for what they can get and leaves. While they are watching the television show What's my Crime?, the puppies are rescued by Sergeant Tibbs. After the show has ended, Jasper and Horace angrily argue over whether or not Jasper skins and Horace kills them and vice-versa but are taken off track of arguing when they over-hear a sound from the door.
Jasper and Horace then notice that the puppies have escaped, and begin a search of the house. Eventually, they are able to corner the puppies in a room. Before they can kill the puppies, Pongo and Perdita arrive and fight Jasper and Horace. While the puppies escape, Horace is knocked into the fireplace by Perdita and Jasper gets his pants pulled down by Pongo. Both are buried underneath the ceiling when it collapses.
After escaping the debris, they track the Dalmatians to a farm building via their footprints. After being attacked by a horse named Captain, they realize that the dogs have already left the building. They attempt to head off the dogs, but the Dalmatians elude them by traveling up a frozen river.
A few days later, Jasper and Horace meet with Cruella on the road. Though they attempt to quit, Cruella forces them to continue. She points out that the Dalmatians tracks lead to a nearby village called Dinsford. In Dinsford, Jasper and Horace search for the puppies. Horace points out some "Labradors", suggesting the possibility that the dogs disguised themselves. Jasper furiously blows off the idea and angrily calls Horace an idiot before violently smacking him in the head.
When the Dalmatians are discovered to be hiding in a van heading for London, the two pursue the van in their truck. Jasper makes a plan to ram the van into a ravine, but Horace panics and accidentally pulls out the steering wheel, causing the truck to slide down the mountain off aim and ends up inadvertently hitting Cruella's car, destroying both vehicles. Cruella furiously suffers a breakdown, angrily ranting about their incompetence, but Jasper simply tells her to shut up finally getting the courage to stand up for themselves.
It can be presumed that they and Cruella are later imprisoned, although the film does not show what happens to them.
101 Dalmatians: The Series[]
In 101 Dalmatians: The Series, they are the "H. and J. Concepts" company and are employed by Cruella to do her dirty work. This involves delivering ransom notes and going through Anita's trash. Unlike the movies, they have American accents and dressed differently than they did before (due to the series being set in America).
101 Dalmatians II: Patch's London Adventure (2003)[]
Cruella pays their bail money so that they can round up the puppies for her artist friend Lars to use as canvases. They passed themselves as Kanine Krunchies deliverymen, and have succeeded into luring the puppies into the truck. They also had Nanny tied up in a well. However, when Lars, Cruella's artist friend, refuses to kill the puppies, Cruella decides to finally get her spotted fur coat. After Cruella, Jasper, Horace, and Lil' Lightning (Thunderbolt's envious sidekick) are thrown into a river, all four are arrested; however, Horace and Jasper are turned loose after they confessed to Nanny, Roger, and Anita that it was Cruella who is behind the whole plot of kidnapping the puppies and turn them into fur coats, as they had enough of her abusive behavior. After they are both released, they apparently go straight and start their own line of sundresses.
Cameos[]
Jasper and Horace make a cameo in the Bonkers episode "The 29th Page" at a prison line-up. The two brothers make a cameo appearance in the House of Mouse episode "Suddenly Hades", during the Hades Heating advertisement at the end of the show. The duo also appeared in the film Mickey's House of Villains.
Disney Parks[]
Jasper and Horace make a small amount of appearances in merchandise for the park and a few live appearances. Most of the merchandise including them have to do with Disney Villains although they have been in some Disney Cruise Line material.
Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom[]
On Main Street USA, Jasper and Horace are forced to work for Cruella in an attempt to find the Crystal of the Magic Kingdom as she threatened to murder them if they refuse to follow her demands. Upon learning that Pongo has contacted the local dogs to help guard the crystal, Cruella sends Jasper & Horace to capture and eliminate them. Jasper creates several traps to capture them and Horace takes them to Cruella's lair. When the park guests arrive, they defeat Jasper by trapping him in one of the dog traps. The guests then head to the lair, where Cruella orders Horace to eliminate the captured dogs. Before he can, the guests arrive and unleash them. They then attack Horace, giving the guests a chance to go after Cruella.
Disney Cinema Parade[]
In the former Walt Disney Studios Park parade, both Jasper and Horace were seen during the Dalmatians' unit with a large sack, ready to kidnap the puppies.

Trivia[]
The fact that they share the same last name implies they are brothers. The sequel proves this when they mention they have the same mother and father. According to Sorcerers of the Magic Kingdom, they also have a cousin named Bob.
In the original novel, the Badun Brothers were named Jasper and Saul. For some reason, Saul was renamed Horace, although it was never stated why this happened.
Hugh Laurie and Mark Williams were reunited in a film adaptation of The Borrowers in which Hugh (Jasper) played a policeman named Officer Steady and Mark (Horace) played a pest control operative named Exterminator Jeff.
The way Horace accidentally bumped his club into Jasper's head when trying to attack Pongo and Perdita was repeated again in The Sword in the Stone by Arthur's foster father, Sir Ector, only he had a sword and didn't get kicked back by his son, Sir Kay, as Jasper did to Horace in return.
Jasper and Horace are the only villains in the direct to video animated sequel to get a happy ending explained during the credits that they owned a shop where they don’t sell clothes out of fur, while Cruella and Lil Lightning got what they deserved in the end for their cruel act with Patch, Thunderbolt, and the rest of the puppies.
Jasper and Horace are very similar to Harry and Marv, due to their incompetence and similarities about their personalities.
