Duck Dodgers Daffy Duck Warner Brothers Looney Tunes (1997)


Duck Dodgers is a sci-fi parody version of Daffy Duck from The Duck Dodgers animated segments produced by Warner Bros. for Looney Tunes in 1997, inspired by the classic 1953 short Duck Dodgers in the 24½th Century. Voiced by Jeff Bennett in the modern iteration, Duck Dodgers reimagines Daffy as an overconfident, glory-seeking space hero who constantly exaggerates his achievements despite frequent blunders. The character humorously satirizes space-adventure tropes, especially Star Wars and Star Trek, while maintaining Daffy’s trademark egotism and manic energy. Set in a futuristic universe filled with aliens, ray guns, and intergalactic rivalries—most notably with Marvin the Martian—Duck Dodgers became popular for blending classic Looney Tunes slapstick with contemporary sci-fi humor, eventually leading to a full television series that aired from 2003 to 2006.
