Here is the rest of the character transcript from the Preview DVD.
Emile
[b]Brad
Bird[/b]: Remy’s brother Emile is very amiable. He’s a maybe a little bit slow, kind of huggable like
a teddy bear though, and is not very critical of about what he eats or puts into his body. He’s always being in
a good, positive upbeat frame of mind. He doesn’t want to see conflict. He wants everybody to be happy, but
also doesn’t have any aspiration and he’s mildly confused about Remy. He’s a very sweet guy, very kind of
sensitive in his own way and a really good friend, a very sweet supportive friend, who basically likes things the
way they are.
Colette
Brad Bird: Colette is a tough character. She’s had
to not only survive, but flourish in a world that is kind of closed off to women and difficult for women,
challenging. Colette has a very tough exterior, but inside she’s very sensitive, very vulnerable. She’s very
touched by the fact that Linguini needs her and also Remy needs her. She doesn’t know about Remy until the very
end of the film, but both of our main characters are dependent on Colette for real knowledge of how to survive in
a kitchen. And, Colette is intrigued by Linguini slash Remy because it’s really Remy’s gift that she’s admiring
in Linguini, but is all stirred up by Linguini because here’s a very innocent character who seems to effortlessly
create wonderful dishes and she is kind of mystified by it.
Gusteau
[b]Brad
Bird[/b]: Chef Gusteau who is kind of the driving influence for Remy, starts the film as a real guy
who’s written these cookbooks and is famous for his restaurants, his food, his approach to food, very well-known,
but very early on in the film we learn that he has died. The Gusteau that we see most in the film is not the
real Gusteau, its Remy’s imagination of what Gusteau would be. He doesn’t know anything that Remy doesn’t really
already know. It just that it takes a form that spurs Remy on. His motto ‘Anyone Can Cook’ is an inspiration to
Remy because he takes that motto to its extreme meaning which was a rat can cook. He’s really a cross between
Obi-Wan Kenobi from the Star Wars films and Jiminy Cricket. He’s kind of a conscience to Remy. It’s a wonderful
little character who is very very, large, fat character, but he’s light as a feather. He floats around the film
and is there to lift up the spirits and drive our character forward.
