The Once-Ler is the deuteragonist of Illumination's 2012 animated film Dr. Seuss' The Lorax, based on Dr. Seuss's book of same name.
He was an ambitious young man who became rich when he kickstarted his business company of Thneeds, fabric objects that could potentially be used for anything. However, in the process, he ended up destroying the ecosystem, against the advice of a mystical orange creature called the Lorax. Isolated away from the artificial city that his empire had become, he gained a chance to redeem himself when a kid named Ted appears and asks to hear about the story from so long ago, of how the trees were extinct.
He is voiced by Ed Helms.
What Makes Him Love Exalted?[]
- He simply to make a product that would help people and change the world for the better at the beginning.
- He is the most affable member of his greedy family.
- He feels remorse for letting all of the trees die due to his actions and forcing all of the animals and the Lorax to leave without a home.
- He managed to get away from what his company eventually became, Thneedville, living in an old house, thinking about what he did and the word "unless", which shows that he is still remorseful over his actions and continues to think about them.
- He tells the story of himself, the Lorax and the Trees to a boy named Ted.
- He gives Ted the last Truffla seed and encourages him to go and plant the seed to restore things as they once were, although Ted initially argues that nobody cares about trees anymore.
- He breaks open the window of his house and tearfully thanks Ted upon hearing "Let It Grow" in Thneedville.
- He becomes happy once he sees the nature coming back, hugging the Lorax, who had returned as well, and owning up for his mistakes for good.
