Pacha — Based on John Goodman
John Goodman's portrayal of the kind-hearted llama herder Pacha in Disney's 2000 film "The Emperor's New Groove" was a perfect fit, and it's no accident. The character of Pacha was carefully crafted to reflect John Goodman's unique physical attributes, including his distinctive jawline, mouth shape, eyes, and nose. The animation team's meticulous attention to detail ensured that Pacha's appearance seamlessly matched the actor who voiced him.
John Goodman's exceptional work in bringing Pacha to life in "The Emperor's New Groove" was so well-received that he later collaborated with Disney again, lending his voice to another beloved character, Sulley, in "Monsters, Inc." The actor's ability to infuse his distinctive personality into animated roles made him a valuable asset to Disney's roster of voice actors. It contributed to the enduring popularity of the characters he portrayed.
