Ted Shackleford

Theodore "Ted" Shackleford (known to the public banana suit as The Man with the Yellow Hat) is the deuteragonist of the Curious George franchise. In Curious George (2006), Ted gets his trademark yellow suit when he's tricked by the shop owners into purchasing it (claiming yellow's "the new khaki"). He then meets George, a playful but curious monkey who changes his life forever.
He is voiced by Corey Burton in the 1980s stop-motion series, Will Ferrell (who also portrays Buddy Hobbs in Elf, The Man Upstairs and President Business in The Lego Movie, Megamind in the film of the same name, Brennan Huff in Step Brothers, Ron Burgundy in Anchorman and its sequel and Brad Whitaker in Daddy's Home and Daddy's Home 2) in the 2006 animated film, Jeff Bennett (who also voices Pip in Enchanted, the titular character in Johnny Bravo, Prowl in Transformers Animated, Petrie in The Land Before Time, and Brooklyn in Gargoyles) in the TV series and later films, and Keith Ferguson in video games.
