The 10 Best Green-Haired Characters In Movies & TV Ranked

Green hair may be a more unusual hair color for movie and TV show characters, but there are still plenty of memorable people who sport the bright and fun style. Blonde actresses are considered the classic Hollywood starlet, black hair on men is for action heroes, rebellious teens often get pink or red, and silver now signifies a character may have some Targaryen ancestry: most hair colors have a corresponding meaning or signal something about the characters who sport them.

Green hair is a little different and doesn’t seem to actually mean anything specific, meaning any type of character can sport it. It can look gross, like a sickly pale color associated with being “green in the face”, or it can look very healthy, like lush, green vegetation growing out of someone’s head. Sometimes it’s for counter-cultural characters, and other times, straight-laced characters have green hair. Whenever it’s used, it’s immediately noticeable as an unusual, but interesting choice, and plenty of memorable characters proudly don it.

Cosmo, along with Wanda, is Timmy Turner’s fairy godparent in The Fairly OddParents and its associated spinoffs. Cosmo is the much more reckless of the pair, and frankly, the dumber of the two, but he always looks out for Timmy and does his best to help his young ward, even if he gets basic rules of socialization wrong. An animated fantasy character, Cosmo’s hair is a bright lime green, as are his eyes. This makes for a pleasing combination with Wanda’s bright pink style.

The Batman movie franchise has produced some of the most iconic and celebrated superhero movie performances ever depicted on the big screen.

Cosmo is very funny, often providing the best jokes in the show, particularly about how often he misunderstands Timmy’s wishes. He’s the quintessential green-haired character and he and Wanda make an excellent couple’s costume for Halloween or any similar party with their instantly recognizable hairdos. He’s goofy, he’s giving, and he’s always green.

8 Krusty The Clown (The Simpsons)

Aqua-Green Hair

Close

Krusty the Clown is one of the best characters to ever come out of The Simpsons. Voiced by Dan Castellaneta, who also does Homer, Grampa, and many more characters in the landmark animated series, Krusty the Clown is the host of a popular variety TV program that Bart, Lisa, and the other kids all adore. Krusty absolutely loathes his audience, however, and frequently voices his disgust with them.

He’ll also do anything for a buck, and puts his likeness and stamp of approval on all manner of dangerous and hilarious products. Rarely seen without his clown makeup, Krusty usually sports aqua-green hair in three poofs, two coming out the side of his head, and a smaller one coming off the top. He’s instantly recognizable, and that dark green hair helps him stand out from the browns, yellows, blacks, and even blues that the show’s characters are primarily colored with.

29 9.2/10 The Simpsons AnimationComedy

The Simpsons is a long-running animated TV series created by Matt Groening that satirically follows a working-class family in the misfit city of Springfield. Homer, a bit of a schmoe who works at a nuclear power plant, is the provider for his family, while his wife, Marge, tries to keep sanity and reason in the house to the best of her ability. Bart is a born troublemaker, and Lisa is his super-intelligent sister who finds herself surrounded by people who can’t understand her. Finally, Maggie is the mysterious baby who acts as a deus ex machina when the series calls for it. The show puts the family in several wild situations while constantly tackling socio-political and pop-culture topics set within their world, providing an often sharp critique of the subjects covered in each episode. This series first premiered in 1989 and has been a staple of Fox’s programming schedule ever since!

7 Grinch (How the Grinch Stole Christmas)

Bright Green Body Hair

Close

The Grinch may very well be the most famous Dr. Seuss character ever, and his story, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, is a classic of the winter holiday season. In every adaptation of the movie, the eponymous Grinch is basically designed the same. He’s a large, gruff, pot-bellied creature, covered head to toe in fur. That fur that covers him is bright green in color, an appropriate design decision for a character who eventually comes to signify Christmas.

His green color is very effective in telling the story. It first comes off as unusual and slightly evil, like he’s the embodiment of jealously, which matches his character in the beginning of the story. However, as the story goes on, the green comes to be seen as a seasonal beacon of hope and joy, particularly when he’s dressed in a red Santa outfit, triumphantly returning the Whos’ presents.

How The Grinch Stole Christmas PGFamilyAnimationComedyHoliday

How the Grinch Stole Christmas is a 2000 holiday comedy from director Ron Howard. The film stars Jim Carrey and is based on the Christmas book of the same name.

Like all the emotions in the Inside Out franchise, Disgust is wonderfully designed. She pops on screen thanks to Pixar’s animation, and wears a scarf and stylish dress like a character who would not be caught dead wearing anything not in vogue. Her hair is perfectly brushed too, flowing off to the side and she, like the other emotions, has rich sparkles in her dark green hair that gives the character depth and something more ethereal.

Disgust’s color is green, as is her hair color. It works on two levels. For one, green and disgust go hand-in-hand, as the “sick” emoji on most phone keyboards shows, but it’s also a very pretty color of green, indicating richness, and high ideals and standards, which in small doses can be good qualities for anyone to have in their emotional control center.

Inside Out

The Inside Out franchise explores the inner workings of a young girl named Riley Anderson, focusing on her five primary emotions—Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear, and Disgust—that personify her thoughts and actions. Created by Pete Docter and Ronnie del Carmen, the franchise is praised for its innovative portrayal of emotions and mental processes. It began with the 2015 film Inside Out, which became a critical and commercial success, leading to sequels, a short film, video games, and theme park attractions.

5 Betelgeuse (Beetlejuice Franchise)

Pale Green Hair

Close

Betelgeuse (Michael Keaton) has the sickly, pale green hair color that indicates just how rotten he is on the inside. First appearing in the 1988 Tim Burton classic, and reprising the role in the 2024 sequel, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, Betelgeuse is an undead bio-exorcist who claims he can help naive, new ghosts scare the inhabitants away from their homes. His methods are ineffective at best, and life-ruining at worst. He’s not a good guy.

That green hair he sports in thin tendrils tells the audience exactly what kind of hustler he is from the moment he comes on screen. Betelgeuse is only interested in taking what others have, and he doesn’t care if innocents get hurt or trapped in the meantime. The sickly hair matches his character perfectly. It also gives the impression of a clown, which is also a good comp for the character.

There are few comic book villains, or movie villains, or even fictional characters, with as much recognizability as the Joker, the main foe of Batman in everything from The Lego Batman Movie to the 1960s Batman TV series. He’s the Clown Prince of Crime, the Harlequin of Hate, and the Ace of Knaves; and all his crimes are committed with an attention to style in both the act, and in how he presents himself.

Ferb Fletcher is one half of the popular lead duo in Phineas and Ferb. Phineas’ step-brother, Ferb is a British child and the biological son of Lawrence Fletcher. Ferb rarely speaks and doesn’t smile nor frown very often, preferring to let his actions do the talking for him. When Ferb does talk, he speaks in a posh, upper-class British accent, speaking some wisdom about the situation. He’s very intelligent and can play multiple instruments and is a master mechanic.

Ferb wears high-waisted purple pants and a cream-colored shirt. He also has a crop of shamrock green hair atop his head. His tall, t-shaped head makes his hair color hard to miss. Far from looking silly, it gives Ferb a much needed “cool” aspect that makes it clear, despite his seemingly awkward and overly-mature attitude, he can have as much fun as any other kid.
