Jerry Mouse

Jerry Mouse is the main character of the Tom and Jerry franchise, playing the hero protagonist, although he hasn't been entirely innocent throughout.

He has to constantly watch out for Tom Cat, who as one might expect, wants to eat Jerry, although sometimes it appears to be more about the thrill of the chase. Despite this, Jerry appears to live life fairly easily.

Jerry rarely speaks, relying on a range of vocal effects to express his emotions, which are usually made up of high pitched yells and screams, originally performed by William Hanna, which are still in use today long after his passing. His most memorable speaking role occurred in Tom and Jerry: The Movie, in which his voice came out from actress Dana Hill's.
