prevnextDark Easter Egg
You know what's funny? The #KimPossible movie being made in "And the Mole Rat Will Be CGI" cast a character voiced by Danny Masterson as Ron. Today, the actual KP live action movie releases a trailer, and Masterson's character on #TheRanch was officially killed off

This tweet drags up a piece of rather dark trivia: Actor Danny Masterson ('70s Show, The Ranch) actually voiced a character in a Mole Rat themed episode of Kim Possible.
Now, years later, Masterson is being fired over sexual misconduct allegations, as the Kim Possible franchise heads into live-action.

For those of you wondering why there’s no naked mole rat in the Kim Possible trailer, he turned out looking A LOT HOTTER THAN ME and my reps and I are petitioning to get him removed from the film altogether. Sorry.

This Kim Possible movie will have Taylor Orega (Succession) as villainess sidekick Shego, and she's the one now claiming responsibility for getting Rufus axed!
(Though she's probably just kidding, so don't blow her Twitter up...)

This fan isn't just upset over the lack of Rufus in the trailer - apparently the lip design is WAY off too ??!
