Official Warner Bros. Website Bio[]

Memorable Quotes[]

  • "Hogarth, we've been through this before. No pets."
  • "Hogarth, we've got to rent a room this year if we're gonna make ends meet, and no one wants to live in a place with shredded upholstery."
  • "...until you feel sorry for him and set him free... in the house. You remember the raccoon, Hogarth? [Shudders] I remember the raccoon."
  • "No scary movies, no late snacks, in bed by 8 o'clock. Got it?"
  • "Don't you ever do that to me again, Hogarth. I was so scared. I thought I lost you."
  • "Would you say grace, please?"
  • "That was, hmm... really unusual, Hogarth."
  • "Hughes. Annie Hughes."
  • "Isn't it wonderful, Hogarth? We finally rented our room."
  • "For some reason the army is in our front yard, Mr. Mansley."
  • "I see why Hogarth sneaks out here."
  • "No! No! Stop! My son is out there!"
  • "Shouldn't we get to a shelter?"
  • "Your best work yet, honey. No doubt about it."

Trivia[]

  • Before Jennifer Aniston was cast to voice Annie Hughes, Jodi Benson, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Julianne Moore, Nicole Kidman, Joan Cusack, Lisa Kudrow, Julia Sweeney, Brooke Shields, Maura Tierney, Andrea Martin, Demi Moore, Lisa Rinna, Amy Yasbeck, Ann Cusack, Sally Field, Jean Smart, and Meg Ryan were all considered to voice Annie Hughes.
  • Filmmakers chose Jennifer Aniston, television’s Rachel on the long-running Nielsen hit “Friends” and star of several feature films, as the independent Annie Hughes. “She’s a play on the usual 1950s mom,” says Abbate. “We updated her. She’s single, working, young and attractive. She’s far from your usual Donna Reed-type’ mom.’”
  • “The thing I liked about Annie and this project,” observes Aniston, “is that it’s not at all what’s expected. She’s more like a mom from the 70s than the 50s. Annie is very strong, like a mother tiger protecting her son, Hogarth. She’s funny and really spunky, in that great kind of Laura Petrie way. There’s also a tremendous heart to the story. I’m really happy to have been involved in the film.”
