He’s just an Asian-American guy. He doesn’t belong to any Asian ancestry.. he’s just… Asian. Yes, he is confirmed an Asian-American cartoon character. If you want to know the background of Russell: The animators played around and drew a picture of one another. One animator drew a picture of another animator, Peter Sohn, A Korean-American. The guy who voiced Russell is Japanese American. So in short: Russell’s looks was based from Peter Sohn, the main animator, a KOREAN-AMERICAN Russell’s voice was from Jordan Nagai, a JAPANESE-AMERICAN RUSSELL, THE CHARACTER HIMSELF IS JUST AN ASIAN-AMERICAN. If you don’t believe me, here’s a Korean newspaper interview of Peter Sohn: Title: THE KOREAN FACE OF PIXAR’S LATEST STAR: http://english.chosun.com/site/data/html_dir/2009/06/03/2009060300484.html You guys make me laugh.
