Chicken Run - Cast

Cast

  • Julia Sawalha as Ginger, who is determined to save her fellow chickens from their impending doom on the Tweedys' farm. She is usually the one that comes up with the ideas and is generally more intelligent than the other chickens.
  • Mel Gibson as Rocky the Rhode Island Red, a cockerel who crash-lands into the farm's chicken coop after fleeing from a circus.
  • Miranda Richardson as Mrs. Melisha Tweedy, a cantankerous egg farmer who decides to convert her farm into a chicken pie factory solely for monetary reasons.
  • Tony Haygarth as Mr. Willard Tweedy, Melisha's henpecked husband.
  • Benjamin Whitrow as Fowler, an elderly cockerel who regularly prattles about his Royal Air Force experiences.
  • Timothy Spall as Nick, a portly rat who is the brains of their operation.
  • Phil Daniels as Fetcher, Nick's slow-witted partner.
  • Jane Horrocks as Babs, the fattest of the chickens with a dim-witted innocence and a love of knitting.
  • Imelda Staunton as Bunty, the group cynic who is the most skeptical of Ginger's escape plans.
  • Lynn Ferguson as Mac, Ginger's brainy Scottish assistant and chief engineer.

Famous quotes containing the word cast:

    “You have overcome yourself: but why do you show yourself to me only as the one overcome? I want to see the victor: cast roses into the abyss and say, “Here is my thanks to the monster, because it didn’t know how to swallow me!””
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    ““The tree of knowledge is not the tree of life!” And yet can we cast out of our spirits all the good or evil poured into them by so many learned generations? Ignorance cannot be learned.”
    —Gérard De Nerval (1808–1855)

    “He cast off his friends as a huntsman his pack,
    For he knew when he pleas’d he could whistle them back.”
    —Oliver Goldsmith (1728–1774)
