Jack Savage

3D Model

Jack Savage was the main protagonist of an early version of Zootopia

In an early, James Bond-like concept for the film called Savage Seas, Jack Savage was to leave the city of Zootopia to visit an island in the “South Seas”, under the command of his boss, a Judi Dench-like mouse. Jack would explore oceans filled with ‘savage’ creatures, which eventually led to Byron Howard’s idea of a series of films about the rabbit spy.

When this idea was pitched to the studio, they loved the idea of the all-animal city in the first act. This was presumably the inspiration to have the whole film take place in the city.

Jack’s character was however scrapped along with the film concept, his role as protagonist eventually given to another rabbit, Judy Hopps.
