Oscar vets George Clooney and Cate Blanchett are reportedly at the table with 20th Century Fox Animation in Wes Anderson’s next helmer The Fantastic Mr. Fox, the director’s first foray into the world of animation.

From drag queens to dictators, 2006 was full of characters and this list has them all, both on and off the screen.
