Trivia[]

  • Carlos of Hop is of similar is of Yzma of The Emperor's New Groove.
  • Carlos is the first Illumination antagonist to be an animal, the second was El Pollito from Despicable Me 2 and the third was Snowball from The Secret Life of Pets.
  • Oddly despite being an adult, Carlos does not age and remains as chick throughout the film despite a chick being the infant stage of a chicken. The reason could be that Carlos and the other chicks are kept young looking by magic, due to Easter not featuring chickens in their adult form.
  • Despite being the main antagonist of the film, he has a few minutes of screen time.
  • Carlos speaks with a Spanish accent. Coincidentally, Spanish is the language of Easter Island, the location of the Easter Factory.
  • Carlos holds the distinction of being the only villain in a live-action movie the film studio Illumination has made as they have produced animated films before and after this one.
  • Kelsey Grammer, Christopher Lloyd, and John Goodman were all considered for the role of Carlos before Hank Azaria was cast.
