Daffy Duck in Hollywood Daffy Duck in Hollywood Daffy Duck in Hollywood is a 1938 Merrie Melodies animated short starring Daffy Duck (in his similar design from "Daffy Duck & Egghead"). This was the final Daffy Duck cartoon directed by Tex Avery. At Wonder Studios ("If it's a good picture, it's a Wonder"), producer I.M. Stupendous is interrupted in his office by Daffy asking for an acting position, and quickly responds "No!" and breaks the fourth wall by stating, "Y'know, that duck's screwy!"

Daffy Duck used by Chuck Jones, who redesigned the duck once again, making him scrawnier and scruffier. In Jones' "Hunting Trilogy" (or "Duck Season/Rabbit Season Trilogy") of "Rabbit Fire", "Rabbit Seasoning" and "Duck! Rabbit, Duck!" (each respectively launched in 1951, 1952, and 1953), Daffy's attention-grabbing ways and excitability provide Bugs Bunny the perfect opportunity to fool the hapless Elmer Fudd into repeatedly shooting the duck's bill off.

However, this Daffy can do nothing that does not backfire on him, more likely to singe his tail feathers
