Recently, footage has been unearthed of a 1983 episode of a Disney TV show called “Disney Studio Showcase” that exhibits clips of the unmade Disney version of the classic film, Who Framed Roger Rabbit? The film, which is based on a 1981 novel of the same name, stayed in the development stage with Disney for several years before they abandoned it around 1984. Several years later, the project was revisited and resurrected by producer Steven Spielberg, director Robert Zemeckis, and animator Richard Williams.

However, as you can see in this video, Disney created several test animations, and the voice of Roger Rabbit was provided by none other than Paul Reubens, two years before his breakout in Pee-wee’s Big Adventure. The voice of Jessica Rabbit is that of Russi Taylor, perhaps best known as the voice of  Martin Prince, Sherri and Terri, and Üter from “The Simpsons.”
