Rest in peace, Eric. Thank you for taking up the mantle and breathing new life into Looney Tunes icons like Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck, and other countless beloved characters. Your joy and kindness will live on in the hearts of animation fans everywhere.

Okay so this has NOT been confirmed by ANY reliable source. Let’s not use a man’s tragic passing for cheap engagement bait.
Another Looney Tunes film has been saved: BYE BYE BUNNY. It will be Eric Bauza’s final film, as he tragically passed away today. For years, he had fought for COYOTE VS. ACME and BYE BYE BUNNY to see the light of day and he managed to fulfill his dream before he was gone. Credit - Cartoon Of The Moon

What to say about the amazing Eric Bauza? There’s so much to say, actually, I really can’t decide where to start. I first met Eric on the Fairly Odd Parents about 20 years ago. He came in to do a minor voice for me and I recognized his immense talent instantly. From there, we kept bringing him in for whatever character we hadn’t cast yet because he could literally voice anything. Finally, we had a lead character come up that we needed a voice for.– the voice of Baby Foop, the anti-fairy - and he, of course, crushed that and did incredible. He even did the voice of Foop in the Fairly Odd Parents live action movie where that character made an appearance. Eric and I always had a great time when we were together. He was literally, one of the funniest people I ever met, and one of the most loyal and friendly. Friendly is very hard to come by in this business. I last saw him this past March at an event that I hosted and asked him to appear. He, of course, agreed and not only showed up, but brought the house down with his humor. He even showed off his amazing drawing talent by drawing a gigantic face of Bugs Bunny the character he is so well-known for voicing recently. It took some big talent to fill Mel Blanks shoes but only someone with the talent level of Erik could’ve done it, and do it he did. (I still have the drawing, by the way) The entertainment business is full of entertaining people, but it’s a special person that can be both entertaining, and a real person. That person was Eric. I’ll miss you forever, buddy. You’ll be making the angels laugh for eternity. Rest well. #ericbauza #friend #bugsbunny #FairlyOddParents

Thank you Eric for giving our favorites their “voice.” His excitement and love for them was always evident, his passion undeniable. Saddened to hear of this sudden, tragic news. My heart and thoughts are with Eric’s family and loved ones. RIP Eric Bauza.
Eric Bauza, the Emmy Award-winning voice actor behind Looney Tunes characters like Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck, died Sunday at his home as a result of hypertensive cardiovascular disease, according to Los Angeles County Medical Examiner records. He was 46. variety.com/2026/film/people…

Many people don't know that along with his voice acting talent, Eric Bauza was a great cartoonist as well. His passing leaves behind a great big hole in the cartoon world, and he will be very missed. RIP

I had the great pleasure of profiling Eric Bauza for the New York Times last year, around the release of THE DAY THE EARTH BLEW UP, where he voiced both Porky Pig and Daffy Duck “We all want to be like Bugs, but we’re all really Daffy,” he said. RIP I’ll put a gift link below.

Well, i think now this film is probably the most impactful film the Looney Tunes will ever have. The fight for it's release and now being one of the final projects Eric Bauza worked for not only the franchise but his career....fuck this one hurts man

I’m absolutely wrecked. My friend and fellow voice actor Eric Bauza is gone. We first worked together on the 2012 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series for Nickelodeon, and we were “Banderas Buddies”… both voicing Puss in Boots in different iterations of the character… Eric on the Netflix series, and I on the DreamWorksTV shorts. He was one of the kindest, most exceptionally talented actors I’ve ever had the pleasure of sharing the booth with and he will be terribly missed.

The voice of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, Tweety Bird, Marvin the Martian, Elmer Fudd, Foghorn Leghorn, Pepe Le Pew, Speedy Gonzalez, and so much more. He was tremendously kind and would whip out the voices just to see eyes light up. What an insane career and a massive loss @bauzilla💔
Eric Bauza has passed away.
