- Oswald the Lucky Rabbit in "Footless and Fancy Free!," a storyboard from the shelved Oswald the Lucky Rabbit television series.
In 2014, an untimed storyboard for this episode was posted on UA-cam by Chris Headrick. (Link Below). I retimed each frame and added music and light sound effects to create a more accessible view into this fascinating period in Oswald's animation history.
Original video: • Oz

Sound Effects from ZapSplat.
Music: "Monochrome Dreams" and "Old Friends, Old Rivals" from Kingdom Hearts II by Yoko Shimomura - Фільми й анімація
Can’t believe Disney scrapped this. it had great potential to be a show
The amount of manic energy from Oswald's hands alone is amazing.
I will never understand Disney’s decision to not go through with this show. I was laughing and giggling the entire time, the visual gags were amazing and silly.
This just goes to show that Disney needs to take a chance on things and they shouldn’t just keep doing what is trendy or profitable for them.
This really could’ve been something.
They need to give Oswald his own series now, especially with amount of attention he has been getting this past year
Disney was stupid for dropping this.
Because it's not WOKE enough
True
@ching-jungyang62 don't give them any qualities you think they have. It's all about money.
Either that or the fact that the character is in the public domain now.
I truly wish the Oswald Show idea was re-greenlit. This is such an amazing idea. I love this restoration of the original storyboard so far!
Disney is still thinking about making an Oswald show someday
@@sonicfanboy3375 True. Ozzie needs more love.
@@skymixel hell yeah
The fans do wat Disney don’t
He's public domain now, anyone can
Gee, I had no idea these storyboards existed until now. It's a shame we still haven't gotten a proper Oswald series, but maybe that will change someday...
I wish Disney would reconsider the show idea again. Such potential wasted.
Agree
Would love to see Oswald get his chance at a show soon hopefully the 100th anniversary of the company can give us some more media soon!
I love this take on Oswald. He's always smiling and cheerful.
He kind of reminds me of Luffy from One Piece.
i love this so much, i love Oswald’s Yakko Warner vibes with his facial expressions and demeanor, i also LOVE that they gave him a turtle friend for the ol’ tortoise ’n’ hare turtle and rabbit thing.
i really love Cliff’s design, also i think it’s good to add a few new characters like Cliff, like if Oswald just moved to Hollywood then he could’ve just met Cliff there, but also included some older friends like Toby the Bear and Homer the Cat, maybe also the Mechanical Cow, (there’s also this long faced dog from one of his shorts called All Wet, i’m kinda obsessed with his character design too i would hope they repurpose him, (they added him as a “crew member” in the racing game Disney Speed Storm and called him Hot Dog)) just so much potential 🥲
I'd love to see Julius the Cat make a comeback.
I get what you mean about the Warner vibes because 'this' version of Oswald would fit right in with the Sibs.
This reminds me of the Cuphead show. It would be great if Oswald has a show like that too. My rabbit Boi deserved it.
I'd imagine this show would've have a smilier generalized feel of the Cuphead show, while borrowing elements(particularly the character designs) from the Paul Ruben Mickey Mouse series.
It also looks like it will either balance, or even be purely, be a silent cartoon series.
If the former, then there might've even been a possibility for them to bring Frank Welker back to reprise his voice over from the Epic Mickey games.
If the latter, then we may or may not have also gotten the similar kind of off the wall ren and stimpy-inspired shock humor both aforementioned shows would indulge in time to time, if not a more personal and character driven narrative like the Ducktales reboot.
I just realized Oswald friend is a tortoise, the tortoise and the hare
Man I really hope they give us something with Oswald😔😔
They recently made an official animated short you can watch on the official Disney Animation yt channel
@@sonicfanboy3375 How recent are we talking?
@@user-zs9ux1ru8u January this year
MA BOY NEEDS TO KICK THAT MOUSE OUT AND GET SOME ATTENTION
@@SamInsaneGaming Exactly
Anyone else got Runaway Brain vibes from this? Cause the premise seems pretty close where the main character loses a vital part that runs around haywire through town and a baddie wants it for their own nefarious purposes.
Except this one has more antics and is a little more lighthearted than the latter.
Other than that GOD I hope Disney brings this back, I mean the idea of this show is so freaking cool!
While i don't mind creating new characters i think they should mainly stick to old Disney characters, like if they wanted to give Oswald a turtle sidekick they could use Toby Tortoise from the Silly Symphony.
I think it's best to give Oswald new set of friends with new personalities so his personality could mesh well
And honestly it's be refreshing
But who knoas
When I read about Cliff the Cabby I more or less fell in love with the character. I wanted to write stories featuring him.
He is really lucky, whatever happens with him.
It’s a massive shame this never happened.
Another heavy hitting voice actor who auditioned for Oswald was Eric Bauza.
Great use of the timeless river themes
I really wish Disney would reconsider their decision to cancel this show pitch. Kind of a waste to spend all that time and trade a whole newscaster for a beloved character that they're not going to do anything with.
You know since Iger was supportive and his departure had a cancelation in the project and since he is back bow I think someone should ask Matt to ask Iger if he could get the team back together to revive the project.
This would have been an awesome series! Oswald deserves SO much better than having his luck go to waste in the shadows. LOVE YOU, OSWALD!!! 🥰
My ideal Oswald series is a series of silent cartoons paying homage to his roots and other cartoons of the 20s and 30s. They could even do some special season or even series finale where they make Steamboat Oswald a real thing! Steamboat Ozzie! That'd be so cool! All that said this animatic is still really cool, and it's both very fascinating and very sad this never happened. Oswald deserves more recognition.
The writing blew me away.
I wish the animation was completed... It does look athletic!
It's a very good episode, even without any dialoge is still funny and entertaining. It's such a shame Disney cancel this
Bless you for putting in this effort.
¡Increible!
No se necesita animación con solo semejante boceto e imaginación
Why can’t disney give Oswald a show my boy deserves one 😕😕
Please bring this rabbit back. I loved Oswald since I was 6 and I was born in 2012.
Oki but guys.
HE STOLE HIS ASS /j
But yea Oswald's show had more potential
I juat love his character.
Same why can Oswald have his own show like Disney is so unfair rn
This is brilliant! Thank you for working on the timing
For being a lucky rabbit he isn't so lucky at getting a show
Probably why he was called throughout most of his Universal career Oswald the Rabbit, or just Oswald Rabbit.
Oswald looks really cool but he would look better without the neck.
One thing that Matt Danner tweeted out that I neglected to include in the video's afternotes is that storyboards are drawn by a storyboard artist with their own style, as opposed to an animator with a style-guide. Long way of saying "this is a rough draft, not the finished product."
@@Mr.Meerkat Anyway, it's close enough to the original Iwerks design for me.
I like Oswald be like 🙂🙃👀🐇 at the whole beggining + wholesome ending
i like how there's a trolley
Bruh. I've been wanting an Oswald show ever since Epic Mickey. Disney shelving this show has me BEYOND upset.
Any one else want to see this animated?
In March of 2023, up-and-coming Disney artist Brandon Treakle announced the development in progress on his directorial debut, a featurette entitled Ortensia and the Seasons.
This deserves more views
Nice serie rally! 😁
I can't say anything that hadn't already been said in this comment section, but I am one of the many people who are disappointed this got scrapped so fast. It was genuinely entertaining and had me laughing a few times, I don't understand the reasoning behind throwing this concept away other than disney just not wanting to take any chances for things they don't think are profitable enough... seeing as what happened to epic mickey. This poor rabbit just can't catch a fucking break
Golly this is amazing.
i want an oswald show really badly
This is so cool!! I think this would’ve been a great show!!
Episode pitch, It's a family reunion all of Donald's family is there all of goofys family and Pete's. Mickey never talked about his family nor has he knew about some of them.
As he explains to minnie why they've never seen them theirs a knock at the door. It's them Mickey's older sister and Brothers
Felicity, Julius and Oswald.
this is basically like the mickey mouse show they've got going on, i don't know why that was greenlit but this wasn't, if anything feature oswald more on that show as part of the gang
This Is Nice
That was so cute
Now, all we need is the possible script for the episode(?) And voice acting and we've basically created a rough pilot!
The animation style is great, but why is Oswald so skinny? I don’t care it’s just amazing.
Super Mario sound effect is the Warp Pipe
:3 my darling 💜💜💜
Actually like to see this become a actual show and I'll sort having his own psychic twig and if we get to see ortensia in the series some fun of benches I think this is pretty good 👍
*In my best doofinshmertiz impression* CURSE YOU DISNEY EXECUTIVES!!!😡🙍♀️🤛💣💥
I’m glad this never got picked up. This doesn’t feel like Oswald.
Lmao Oswald is a sticc
Disney when a good revival is submitted: NI THIS IS A HORRIBLE IDEA! Disney when a crappy live action remake movie gets submitted: That’s an amazing idea! We will make millions!
Try and animate this completely one day
Is this oficial by disney?
Yup!
Oh ok
Roy zelfde als dat zo is vies koud is😢
Cancelled?
Unfortunately, yes. Considering that the original storyboard was uploaded in 2014, I'm guessing it was cancelled by then.
@@Mr.Meerkat oh. *sigh*
@@Mr.Meerkat Iv got a question...for god.... WHYYYYYY!
@@speedy_oda You'll have to ask the 2014 heads of DTVA.
@@Mr.Meerkat I suppose...
Is this legit from disney?
I dont like his eyes, they're too small and far apart. He looks more like Max.
I dont like the artstyle tbh
Nah the artsyle is awesome
@@dumbotv3820 just my opinion honestly I forgot I even commented this lol
@@dumbotv3820eh it ain’t that bad nvm
