-With a tall, slim physique and overbearing personality, Mortimer is the polar opposite of the stout and earnest Mickey. Mortimer's whiskers, elongated snout, and prominent front teeth made him out to be more of a rat than a mouse, contrast to his name. Though ''Mickey's Rival'' was his only appearance in the theatrical shorts, Mortimer was reinvigorated in the early 2000s with prominent roles in ''[[Mickey Mouse Works]]'' and ''[[House of Mouse]]'', in which he coined his catchphrase, "Ha-cha-cha!".
+He was planned to be in ''[[Who Framed Roger Rabbit (film)|Who Framed Roger Rabbit]]'' but ultimately deleted.
