Brad Garrett: Best Characters He’s Voiced, Ranked

 

Although undoubtedly best knows for his role as Ray’s down-on-his-luck brother, Robert in Everybody Loves Raymond, Brad Garrett has lent his voice to many characters over his career. His deep and distinctive voice is perfectly suited to animation, making him instantly recognizable.

Tank

2000’s An Extremely Goofy Movie saw Max (Goofy’s son) begin his first year at college, only for his life to be made more difficult when Goofy enrolls at the same college to earn a business degree.

Brad Garrett lend his voice to Tank, a hulking frat boy who towered over the other freshman and made Max’s situation only worse. Tank is one of the more villainous characters Garrett has lent his voice to over his career.

Chug

Featured in the Cars spin-off Planes, Chug the fuel truck was voiced by Garrett. The family-friendly adventure gave Garrett plenty of opportunities to put his comic abilities to good use. And although only a supporting role his voice remains one of the most distinctive and funny in the movie.

Although a spin-off from CarsPlanes was not made by Pixar. The Planes franchise failed to earn the same level of critical praise and is regarded as a pale imitation.

Gusteau

Although Gusteau only has a limited amount of screen-time in 2007’s Ratatouille, his presence is felt throughout the film. He serves as inspiration for Remmy the Rat, he is his idol and the reason he wants to become a chef.Being a french chef, the character showed a different side of Garrett’s voice and remains one of his most unique and distinctive performances to date. Gusteau died tragically of a broken heart after receiving a bad review and is believed to be inspired by a real-life chef.

Easter Island Head

Brad Garrett lends his unique voice to the Easter Island Head across the Night at the Museum franchise. The larger than life character is a gentle giant (much like Garrett himself), and although his role is a minor one, he still manages to provide some of the biggest laughs in the film.

The film features an all-star cast including Ben Stiller and Ricky Gervais and remains one of the highest-grossing movies of their respective careers.
