What 2001 cult film features a giant rabbit named Frank?

The 2001 cult film featuring a giant rabbit named Frank is Donnie Darko. The film follows troubled teenager Donnie Darko, played by Jake Gyllenhaal, who begins seeing a disturbing figure in a large rabbit costume.

Frank tells Donnie that the world will end in 28 days, 6 hours, 42 minutes, and 12 seconds. The story blends psychological thriller, science fiction, time travel, and coming-of-age drama, leaving viewers to interpret whether Donnie’s visions reflect mental illness, supernatural forces, or a fractured timeline.

Frank’s identity becomes central to the film’s final revelation: he is connected to Elizabeth Darko’s boyfriend, Frank Anderson, who wears the rabbit costume. Written and directed by Richard Kelly in his feature debut, Donnie Darko initially struggled commercially but gained a devoted following through home-video release and midnight screenings.
