Penny's Father

Penny's Father is a minor character in the 2008 Disney animated feature film Bolt. He is an actor portraying the father of Penny as part of some franchise television program.
== Background ==
=== Physical appearance ===
Penny's Father is a tall man with a slender appearance, having brown hair plus a beard and moustache. He wears a white lab coat with a black shirt underneath and greenish grey pants.
== Appearances ==
===Bolt===
Penny's Father is first seen while calling Penny and informed her that Dr. Calico and his henchmen have captured him and are holding him hostage but explains that he gave her dog, Bolt, incredible super powers so she can find him. He is later shown in a holographic TV that was being spied by Penny, when she gets information on where he was being held hostage by Calico, as Penny's Father tells him that he'll never reveal anything before one of Calico's cats meows at him to be silent. 
He isn't seen for a while throughout in the film, until during the last filming set where Calico showed him that they've captured Penny but just as Bolt's lookalike shows up. However, unfortunately, the dog got spooked and accidentally knocked over a fire post that sets the whole stage on fire which forced everyone to leave the studio including the actor, who managed to broke free from the chair that he was being held "captive" . It is unknown if whether or not he had escaped and therefore survived the fire, since he's never seen again. 
===Super Rhino===
Penny's Father discovers that Dr. Calico captured both Penny and Bolt and sends super-powered Rhino to save them. Since that was revealed to be one of Rhino's dreams, this event in the in-universe TV show may have taken place after he was rescued by Penny.
===Bolt: The Video Game===
Penny's Father's voice was heard on the phone that Dr. Calico handed to Penny when he and his men got their hands on her at the ancient temple; before Bolt came to her rescue. Dr. Calico made him believe that he still had her and that he would not harm her in any way if he builds them a weapon. He later made an appearance when he stuck his head out of the helicopter that Dr. Calico was trying to get on, begging Penny to get Bolt to stop the missiles that his captor had launched.
==Trivia==
*His real name is unknown.
*Since he was not seen with Penny in reality, he is therefore unlikely her real father and is just an actor.
*His personality and appearance is somewhat based off Dr. James Possible from the Kim Possible series.
*He only has a few lines in the film.
