kronk The Emperor's New Groove

Voiced by Patrick Warburton, Kronk is a good-natured, dim-witted henchman who serves as the loyal sidekick to the conniving Yzma, the film’s primary antagonist. Despite his role as a henchman, Kronk’s childlike innocence, love for cooking, and endearing personality quickly won audiences over, making him a standout character.

Kronk’s defining traits include his muscular physique, his culinary skills (particularly his knack for making spinach puffs), and his tendency to talk to squirrels using his impeccable “squeak-squeak” language. He also frequently struggles with his conscience, often depicted as a devil and angel on his shoulders, adding comedic depth to his internal dilemmas.

Patrick Warburton’s iconic deep voice and comedic timing brought Kronk to life, solidifying the character as a fan favorite. Warburton’s performance was so popular that Kronk became the star of the direct-to-video sequel Kronk’s New Groove (2005), where his good-hearted nature and personal journey took center stage. Kronk also appeared in The Emperor’s New School, a Disney Channel series.
