Charlie Brown

Charles "Charlie" Brown is the main protagonist of the Peanuts franchise. His many struggles are based off the childhood of his creator Charles Monroe Schulz. He attempts to do what is right for others, though sometimes it dissatisfies them. He has a dog named Snoopy and a little sister named Sally.
He has a crush on the seldom-seen, seldom-named Little Red-Haired Girl. Despite encountering bullies, like Lucy Van Pelt, or those that are minor adversaries, his greatest adversary is himself. He always gets abused by his friends, especially Lucy, who calls him a "blockhead". To always have a boy's voice, he is almost always voiced by different boys. In the miniseries This is America, Charlie Brown, he is voiced by Erin Chase.
In the 2015 film The Peanuts Movie, he was voiced by , who later played Will Byers from Stranger Things.

==Biography==
Charlie Brown the kid who never has things go his way, partly because he's just unlucky and partly because one of his defining qualities is that he's "wishy-washy", and therefore often fails to go after what he really wants. Running Gags with him include trying to kick the football but having it pulled away, being the dedicated manager of a terrible baseball team (or, depending on the writer, being the terrible manager of a potentially good baseball team), and generally being the strip's scapegoat.
Despite his insecure and pessimistic personality, Charlie Brown always tries his best in everything he does, but he rarely ever succeeds. In spite of this, he is willing to learn from his mistakes and be wise in the near future, showing that he cares about his responsibilities and is willing to persevere and give everything his all.
==Appearance==
Charlie Brown is drawn with only a small curl of hair at the front of his head, and a little in the back. Charlie Brown almost always wears black shorts and a polo shirt with a black zig-zag stripe around the middle. In the animated TV specials, his shirt is colored yellow. In the past, his shirt was colored red in the Sunday comic strips and blue in Peanuts merchandise but it now usually appears as yellow in all media. 
==Trivia==
*Charlie Brown is based on Charles Schulz himself. His father is also a barber, too.
