Trivia[]

  • The lower half of Ash's body was wrapped in cling film during shooting.
  • Like his mother, Ash appears to be ambidextrous, using both his left and right hand dominantly at random times throughout the film. This is most likely an oversight, though.
  • His favorite music includes "Let Her Dance" by The Bobby Fuller Four.
  • In the original book, Ash was one of Mr. and Mrs. Fox's four children, none of whom are given specific names.
  • In the film's final scene, Ash is drinking grape juice whereas everyone else is drinking apple juice. This further continues the theme of Ash being "different".
  • Ash is theorized by some fans to be trans masculine, due to him being smaller than other animals his age and comments made by his father.
