The Bad Guys is breaking barriers with its animation style. So it's no surprise that the concept art and choreography and all that behind the scenes stuff is just so fascinating to look at. The original book for The Bad Guys by Aaron Blabey inspired the director, Pierre Perifel to want to make a Tarantino movie for kids. He blended that with his 2D animation french experience and voila we have something new and exciting! The concept art for some of the characters is just downright goofy or creepy. Webs ended up adorable and she at one point was going to be blue but at other points, she was going to haunt your nightmares. Wolf went through more than a dozen wardrobe malfunctions before they landed on that perfect style. Some characters were turned human, some changed gender, and some changed names. Professor Marmalade, played by Richard Ayoade, had the weirdest name change you've ever heard. The actors were breaking all sorts of legs in the voice booth. Not Web's legs. George Clooney was a contender for the role of Wolf but the director really wanted to keep away from the expected. Instead, he brought in Sam Rockwell. Mr. Piranha, played by Anthony Ramos, is another one that had some creepy concept art. Fish heads on human bodies. It looked a bit like a reverse mermaid. The beautiful landscapes of L.A. took a lot of inspiration from other action movies. The design required a lot of simplifying, which, nowadays it’s easier to add detail than to take it away.
