"Rise of the Guardians" features what actor as the Easter Bunny?

The story behind the answer

“Rise of the Guardians” features Hugh Jackman as the Easter Bunny. Jackman voices E. Aster Bunnymund, a powerful, quick-tempered guardian who protects spring, hope, and new beginnings.

The 2012 DreamWorks Animation film reimagines familiar childhood figures as a team of supernatural protectors. Bunnymund joins Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, and the Sandman to defend children from Pitch Black, the Boogeyman. Jackman’s Australian voice gives the character a distinctive, energetic personality that differs from the gentler Easter Bunny of many traditional stories.

The film’s other major voice roles include Chris Pine as Jack Frost, Alec Baldwin as North, Isla Fisher as the Tooth Fairy, Jude Law as Pitch, and Dakota Goyo as Jamie. A common mix-up is confusing Jackman’s role with Hugh Laurie’s animated voice work or with actors who have played the Easter Bunny in live-action holiday specials. In this film, the Easter Bunny is specifically E. Aster Bunnymund, voiced by Hugh Jackman.
