The most lonely dog ​​in the world and 6 more famous animal-movie actors

Tailed, toothed and winged actors enjoy the constant love of the viewer. Let us recall the most outstanding animal-movie stars.

The Lonest Dog in the World of Freya

The most lonely dog ​​in the world was called the British mongrel Freyu. Another puppy she was brought to the Liverpool animal shelter. Over 6 years, more than 18,000 potential hosts came to see the dog, but none of them wanted to take an animal with whom epilepsy was diagnosed, although the shelter staff claimed that Freya was a kind and friendly dog.

About the unfortunate animal learned the American director Michael Bay. He was very imbued with the history of Freyja and undertook to arrange her fate. The director announced that Freya will be filming with Anthony Hopkins in "Transformers 5", and the other day a video of the joint frames of the legendary actor and dog appeared.

Michael Bay also managed to find the hosts' dog. So, the most lonely dog ​​suddenly became the happiest. And we look forward to her film debut!

Monkey Crystal

If Frey has just started his career, the Capuchin monkey Crystal is already a real star. Journalists nicknamed her "Angelina Jolie Animal Kingdom." She has more than 20 films, including George of the Jungle, Night at the Museum, We bought the zoo. She especially succeeded in the role of the incessantly smoking monkey drug dealer in the movie "Bachelor Party 2: from Vegas to Bangkok." At the premiere of the film in Bangkok, the actress sported in a decollete pink dress and a pearl necklace. And she can afford expensive outfits: for one episode in the series "Veterinary Clinic" the monkey received 12,000 dollars.

Now the twenty-two-year-old actress lives in Los Angeles, in the home of her coach. K Crystal is treated as a member of the family (still, such fees zashibaet!), She sleeps in the same bed with her master, his wife, another capuchin and a dog. Favorite star dishes: bananas, Nutella, chocolate, as well as spiders and flies.

Dog Uggi

Dog Uggi - another legend of the cinema. Funny Jack Russell Terrier was born in 2002 in Florida. His master, the dog breeder Omar von Mueller, noticed the outstanding abilities of the puppy and took up his career. In a year and a half, Uggi starred in his first film, "Mr. All We'll Correct", which was released in 2006. Then came the work in the films "Water to the elephants!" And "Artist". The latter brought Uggi world fame. For his role in this film, he received the "Golden Collar" and the "Palm Branch". Despite the general recognition, Uggi did not "zazvezdilsya": he remained a carefree playful dog, adored chicken and hot dogs.

In 2012, the dog went to a well-deserved pension. At a solemn event dedicated to this event, Uggi gave out autographs: he put his paws, smeared with ink, to the discs with the film "Artist".

At the end of the year, his memoirs, of course, were written in co-authorship with trainers and journalists. Uggi devoted his book to his beloved actress Reese Witherspoon, who starred in the movie "Water to the elephants!"

And on August 7, 2015, the world was shocked by the sad news: the dog Uggi, who contracted prostate cancer, was put to sleep.

Pug Mushu

For the first time the charming pug appeared before the viewers in the role of an alien dog in the film "Men in Black". Pesic was purchased specifically for this role for just a few hundred dollars. Mushu appeared on the screen only for a minute and a half, but so subdued all that in the second part of the "Men in Black" got a more significant role.

Mushu was a real star: he majestically walked along the carpet paths, flew exclusively first class, ate roasted steaks, and drank water only from bottles. Personal stylists tinted his face with mascara to hide the gray hair.

Unfortunately, before the very shooting of "People in Black 3" the talented doggie died.

Bear Bart

Legendary Bear Bart, born in 1977, is a hereditary actor. His mother starred in the films "Grizzlies" and "Animal Day." Still baby Barta was brought up by the trainer Doug Sous, with whom the bear was associated with very warm and sincere relationships throughout life. The bear is the same age as his daughter, they were brought up together and grew up in the same house. For 23 years of his life, Bart has appeared in three dozen films, including "The Bear", "Legends of Autumn", "On the Edge." His partners on the set were Anthony Hopkins, Alec Baldwin, Steven Seagal. Despite its formidable appearance (weighed 700 kg with a height of 2 m 90 cm), it was a pleasure to play with him.

Brad Pitt remembered about him like this:

"On the screen Bart was ferocious and awesome, and outside the screen - a well-bred and intelligent animal. I was struck by the inner connection that existed between the bear and Doug. "

Bart led the life of a true artist. Together with the owner, he traveled all over North America and even traveled to Europe. Attended the 70th Oscar ceremony, where he was entrusted to keep the coveted envelope.

At age 23, the animal was found to have paw cancer. Two operations were performed, but a relapse occurred, and Bart had to be put to sleep. The last days of his life he spent surrounded by his family: Doug Susa, his wife and three children.

Killer Whale Keiko

The fate of killer whales Keiko, the stars of the series "Save Willy", can be called tragic. As a kid, he was caught in a net off the coast of Iceland and was taken to one of Mexico's oceanariums. Here he was very popular with visitors. But because of the too hot Mexican climate, Keiko fell ill. Fortunately, he caught the eye of the producers of the film "Free Willy." Keiko was treated and transported to the city of Newport, Oregon. For him, a more suitable swimming pool was built, and here the shooting took place. In some scenes Keiko replaced the understudy - killer whale-robot. He was so much like a real animal that Keiko was trying to flirt with him.

After the film was released, the public demanded that the killer whale be released. Scientists were against this decision, because the animal lived all his life among people and did not know how to get his own food. However, in 1998 Keiko, who was already 22 years old, was taken to Iceland by a military cargo plane.

A special corral in the ocean was built for him. When he was released into the open ocean for the first time, he voluntarily returned to the corral. He was so used to people that he could not imagine his life without them.

During the storm, the special vessel accompanying Keiko had to leave and leave the animal. And he nailed to a pack of other killer whales and swam to the coast of Norway. Here the former actor fought off the pack. Keiko was very lonely: his relations with his kinsmen did not develop, and he was deprived of communication with people to whom he was so used. On Norwegian beaches, he tried to flirt with children, rolled them on his back.

Keiko died in 2003, at the age of 27, without getting used to living in freedom. On the shore of the Norwegian fjord he was installed a monument.

Sova Gizmo and other performers of the role of Hedwig

Gizmo is a male polar owl who played the role of Owl Hedwig - Harry Potter's favorite. On the set, Gizmo had 6 doubles: owls Ook, Casper, Elmo, Bandit and Sprout. All of them are males, since the female polar polar owls are larger than the males, and it was more convenient for the young Daniel Radcliffe to keep the smaller bird.

Gizmo turned out to be the most intelligent, and he was entrusted with the most difficult trick - carrying letters. The training of this wisdom took 3 months. Ook, the most active, was used for flight scenes. The easy-going Sprout Daniel often wore on his arm, and the quiet Elmo was attracted when the owl needed to be taken in a cage.
