22
23	A hot-headed, impulsive white blood cell whose recklessness has put him in the police department's bad books, Ozzy finds himself having to save Frank's life when his body is invaded by the deadly virus Thrax.
24	----
25	* AllOfTheOtherReindeer: Most of his fellow officers mock him for trying to catch criminals alone, not to mention [[spoiler:the infamous incident that caused Frank to puke on Shane's teacher]].
26	* BlueIsHeroic: Even though he's a white blood cell, his color is a light shade of blue.
27	* CassandraTruth: Ozzy is the first white blood cell to become aware of Thrax. However, his CowboyCop antics make it impossible for anyone other than Drix and to a lesser extent Leah to believe him. It isn't until Frank is on the verge of death that people start to realize that Ozzy was telling the truth.
28	* CheshireCatGrin: He sports one of these big, wide smiles every now and again.
29	* CoolCar: He had his cop car customized.
30	* CoolShades: He occasionally wears a pair of black sunglasses.
31	* CowboyCop: Constantly ignores orders and goes rogue on the belief he can catch criminals by himself, to the point where he causes more problems for Frank than he solves.
32	* {{Determinator}}: Chases down Thrax ''outside Frank's body''.
33	-->'''Thrax:''' You just don't know when to ''quit'', do ya, Jones?
34	* DoggedNiceGuy: Niceness downplayed. He has a little trouble winning Leah Estrogen's affections. [[spoiler: He does at the end, though.]]
35	%%* DrivesLikeCrazy: To call him a reckless driver is an understatement.
36	* GoofyPrintUnderwear: An X-ray scan when he goes to pick up Drix shows that he's wearing these.
37	* GrinOfAudacity: He usually smiles in the face of danger to show that everything is going to be okay.
38	* TheHero: What did you expect after reading the title of the movie?
39	* IDidWhatIHadToDo: Ozzy had to eject a dangerous virus via vomit from Frank after the latter ate some raw oysters. He saved Frank's life in the process, but at the expense of his reputation and position.
40	* IdiotHero: Osmosis, fast-talking aside, is not quite as bright as Drixenol.
41	* InSeriesNickname: He's always known as "Ozzy" when referred to by his first name.
42	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He's an egotistical CowboyCop, for sure, but he ultimately works for the best interest of his city.
43	* LargeHam: What else would one expect from Chris Rock?
44	* MasterOfDisguise: He can use his shape-shifting abilities to make himself utterly unrecognizable, other than his color. Heck, he can even make it look as though he has only one eye!
45	* TokenGoodCop: He's a (white blood cell) cop who is good at both recognizing and battling threats. Many of his coworkers aren't, with his only reliable ally being Drix.
46	%%* RedOniBlueOni: The red to Drix's blue.%%How?
47	%%* RubberMan: Do you see results in that? He is a white blood cell.%%ZCE, unclear wording

59	A sugar pill taken to control a case of throat inflammation, Drix partners with Ozzy to resolve the Thrax crisis.
60	----
61	* ArmCannon: He utilizes his icy painkilling abilities by shooting blasts of frigid air from a cannon replacing his arm.
62	* TheBigGuy: He's much taller and wider than Ozzy.
63	* ByTheBookCop: Part of what makes him different from Osmosis -- he's a stickler for procedure, which requires the two of them to adjust their technique. Once this is accomplished, they make a surprisingly good team.
64	* CaptainErsatz: Drix bears a strong resemblance to ComicBook/IronMan.
65	* DeadpanSnarker: He always seizes a chance to make a dry quip at Ozzy's CowboyCop tendencies.
66	* {{Deuteragonist}}: As Ozzy's partner in both the film and the [[WesternAnimation/OzzyAndDrix spinoff series]], Drix is the second main character.
67	* FreezeRay: His painkilling abilities are portrayed as ice blasts fired from his ArmCannon.
68	* GeniusBruiser: An imposing, powerful, but also book-smart cold pill.
69	* InSeriesNickname: "Drix" is this, short for Drixenol (or Drixobenzometaphedramine).
70	%%* TheLancer: To Ozzy.
71	* MotorMouth: His introduction is delivered very quickly, in the manner of the narration that follows most medicine commercials.
72	* NiceGuy: Cordial, friendly and helpful.
73	* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Nobody refers to him by his full name in the film, other than himself in his introduction.
74	* RedIsHeroic: His main colors are red and yellow.

76	%%* SensitiveGuyAndManlyMan: The Sensitive Guy to Ozzy's Manly Man.%%How?
77	%%* SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: He is very eloquent.
78	* SlasherSmile: When pretending to be crazy to extract information from a flu vaccine. Complete with an [[EvilLaugh evil giggle]]!
79	* TheSmartGuy: He certainly acts smarter than Osmosis, at least. To be fair, he is intelligent and educated, Ozzy just has more experience, and Drix listens to him when it is prudent to do so.
80	* StraightManAndWiseGuy: The straight man to Ozzy's wise guy.

87	[[caption-width-right:325:''"Remember, [[IdiotBall a fat Frank is a happy Frank]]."'']]
88	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/WilliamShatner
89
90	The short-sighted and self-serving mayor of the City of Frank, whose poor decisions and attempts to secure his own position led to Frank's deteriorating health and both began and exacerbated the virus outbreak.
91	----
92	* FatIdiot: He clearly doesn't see what could happen if he keeps giving Frank junk food instead of healthy food, hence the obesity.
93	* HateSink: As he is designed to represent and justify Frank's poor health, he inevitably ventures into this. Notably, he dismisses Ozzy from the police force for popping a pimple on Shane's teacher even though it was an emergency situation, fails to acknowledge Thrax as a threat despite the fact that he had killed others in the past (dismissing him as the common cold when he was one of the deadliest viruses ever), and is the only one that doesn't see the problem in giving Frank nothing but junk food (and is oblivious to how it's straining Frank's relationship with Shane).
94	* HeadInTheSandManagement: He's so desperate to remain mayor, which he believes hinges on making sure Frank gets to a big BBQ event, that he'll resort to illegally using an override key (only permissible by vote of the Council) to make Frank take OTC medicine rather than go to the hospital when Thrax first starts showing his effects. If it weren't for Jones and Drix (who Phlegmming tries to get rid of), it would have been the end of the world for Frank's citizens.
95	* InsufferableImbecile: He dooms Frank's health with his incompetence and ignores Ozzy's warnings over Thrax's invasion in favor of his re-election.
96	* IRejectYourReality: His response to all the unfortunate things that Frank is going through.
97	* ItsAllAboutMe: Even when a threat to the city is imminent, he retains a shockingly solipsistic attitude.
98	* {{Jerkass}}: He certainly is, especially to Ozzy.
99	* JerkassHasAPoint: While he is a total douche towards Ozzy, Phlegmming has every right to be angry at his recklessness, such as disobeying orders and popping a pimple without a permit.
100	* LaserGuidedKarma: Abolished Ozzy for having Frank throw up to get out an evil virus. Then at the end when he's been booted out of office, he presses a similar button and winds up flushing himself right out of Frank's own body.
101	* MayorPain: Though he's not corrupt per se, he's ''very'' incompetent at his job and cares more about his re-election than anything else.
102	* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: During Frank's near-death, Phlegmming shows remorse as he sees his city burning to the ground.
103	* TheNapoleon: Is the shortest of all the adult cell characters[[note]]to the point a cameraman can be shown crouching down to make sure he's in frame[[/note]] and easily the most egotistical.
104	* ObstructiveBureaucrat: Let's see, he fired Osmosis and gets Drix out of Frank just for ''popping a pimple without permit'' (Which is like blowing up a building in the real world) and as mayor control's nearly all of Frank's actions, including his slovenly behavior. Said neglect almost ends up killing the guy and every cell with him.
105	%%* SleazyPolitician: To a tee.
106	* TooDumbToLive: His actions almost get his city destroyed. The end of the film shows he ''still'' hasn't learned his lesson about taking warnings seriously when he presses [[DontTouchItYouIdiot a button under a "Do Not Touch" sign]] and gets literally exiled from the body.
107	* {{Trumplica}}: He even resembles Trump.
108	* UnderestimatingBadassery: Thinks Thrax is no real threat to the city. He's ''very'' wrong.

113	[[caption-width-right:325:''"Come here, baby. I'm still Jonesin' for a little more Osmosis."'']]
114	->'''Voiced by:''' [[Music/{{Brandy}} Brandy Norwood]]
115	Mayor Phlegmming's secretary and who Ozzy is deeply in love with.
116	----
117	* DamselInDistress: Is taken hostage by Thrax, and very nearly killed by him.
118	* EveryoneHasStandards: She's rejecting of Ozzy's advances towards her but even she thinks he doesn't deserve to lose his job when Mayor Phlegmming fires him.
119	* GracefulLadiesLikePurple: Her suit and even her body are both purple.
120	* ImpossibleHourglassFigure: Downplayed, but her waist is still tiny compared to her bosom and hips.
121	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: She may be aloof and unpleasant towards Ozzy, but she ultimately turns out to be a very good-hearted character, and even tries to talk some sense into Phlegmming.
122	%%* NonMammalMammaries: Part of being a female human cell.
123	* OfficeLady: She works as a secretary for Mayor Phlegmming.
124	%%* OfficialCouple: With Ozzy in the end.
125	* OnlySaneWoman: In Phlegmming's office. She is the only one who tries to talk sense into him, and is brave enough to confront him when his irresponsible ways cross the line. She also confronts Phleggming about his devil-may-care attitude towards an alert that the hypothalamus is under attack.
126	* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: She gives a short and to the point one to Mayor Phlegmming after he dismisses the blatant signs that Frank is suddenly starting to run a fever.
127	-->'''Leah:''' You care more about your ''stupid'' re-election than you care about all our lives!
128	* SassyBlackWoman: Thanks to Music/{{Brandy}}.
129	* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Although Leah isn't the only female anthropomorphic cell in Frank's body, she's the only one with NominalImportance.
130	%%* {{Tritagonist}}: To Ozzy and Drix's protagonist and deuteragonist respectively.%%How?
131	* {{Tsundere}}: Type B. She's very rough around the edges, but her heart is very much in the right place.
132	[[/folder]]

134	[[folder:Police Chief]]
135	->'''Voiced by''': Creator/JoelSilver
136	As the name implies, the chief of Frank Police Department who runs who runs a tight ship. He expects nothing but the best from Frank's Finest, but often clashes with Ozzy for disobeying orders.
137	----
138	%%* AdiposeRex: He is very corpulent.%%And?
139	* BenevolentBoss: He expects nothing but the best from his police force, hence why he is upset with Ozzy going over his head. It's also heavily implied that he strongly dislikes Mayor Phlegmming and rightly believes his department's job to keep Frank healthy is becoming harder because of him.
140	%%* DaChief: Fits this trope to a "T."%%ZCE, word cruft
141	* EveryoneHasStandards: He frequently tells off Ozzy for going rogue and causing mayhem, but even he thinks Phlegmming firing Ozzy was a bit excessive.
142	* AFatherToHisMen: Cares deeply about the safety and the performance of all his officers, including Ozzy. Indeed, part of the reason he berates Ozzy a lot is because he genuinely wants him to do better, unlike most of the other police officers and Phlegmming who see him as a laughingstock.
143	* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: He may be at odds with Ozzy a lot, but he ultimately trusts him to do what's right.
144	* KickedUpstairs: Does this to Ozzy by assigning him to the throat do deal with a case of pharyngitis, under the condition that he has a partner.
145	%%* LargeHam: "JONES! My office!"
146	* NoNameGiven: His name is never given in the movie or even promotional material.
147	* PrecisionFStrike: In the online game ''Mystery of the Rash Outbreak'', he says "Get your nucle-ass in my office! NOW!!"
148	* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: He takes Frank's health much more seriously than his boss, and does see some value in keeping Ozzy in the force despite his destructive antics.

152	[[folder:Thrax]]
153	[[quoteright:340:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/thrax_7616.png]]
154	[[caption-width-right:340:''"Careful. I'm contagious."'']]
155	->'''Voiced by:''' Creator/LaurenceFishburne
156
157	A deadly and highly dangerous virus who enters Frank's body [[TooDumbToLive when the latter eats a contaminated boiled egg that had just been in the mouth of a zoo monkey]], only to be dropped to the ground. Thrax aims to kill each new host he enters faster than the previous one, wanting to go down in the medical textbooks as one of the most deadly diseases in history.
158	----
159	* AmbitionIsEvil: He wishes to be remembered as the most dangerous virus in human history and earn his own chapter in the medical books. To reach his goal he's infected and killed numerous innocent people, and after doing the same thing to Frank, plans to beat his own personal record by killing his little daughter.
160	* AsskickingLeadsToLeadership: He gets the bacteria to accept him as their new leader after single-handedly killing their prior boss, Scabies.
161	* AxCrazy: When it comes to Thrax and his desire to get in the medical books he will pile up as many bodies as he can, and he will do it all with a gleefully wicked smile on his face.
162	* BadBoss: He kills both of his remaining underlings when one of them suggests laying low for a while, which would've derailed Thrax's plot to kill Frank within 48 hours.
163	* BadassBoast: When Scabies mocks him, saying he thinks he's the Ebola Virus; a disease infamous for causing, in some cases, ''uncontrolled bleeding out the eyes and orifices.''
164	-->'''Scabies:''' Look who thinks he's the Ebola virus! (laughs)\
165	'''Thrax:''' "Ebola"? Let me tell you something about ''Ebola'', baby. Ebola is a case of '''dandruff''' compared to me!
166	* BadassLongcoat: One that he can use as a ''glider'' at that.
167	* BerserkButton:
168	** Do not get in the way of his goal of being in the medical books. [[BadBoss He killed all of his remaining men when one suggests they incubate for a while, since they are few in numbers]].
169	** He also doesn't take kindly to being looked down on, as Scabies found out the hard way.
170	* BigBad: His plans to cause an infection of historical proportions are the reason why Frank is in danger.
171	* BigNo: He yells this when Ozzy tricks him into getting his claw lodged in a fake eyelash that is about to fall.
172	* BondVillainStupidity: Rather than using his OneHitKill claw on a dazed Ozzy during the final battle, he decides to strangle him using his DNA Chain. This costs him big when Frank's daughter blinks: he loses his grip on the chain, and when he decides to actually use the aforementioned TouchOfDeath, Ozzy manages to dodge it (by forming a hole in his torso around it) and get Thrax stuck, sealing the virus's fate.
173	* BreakoutCharacter: Easily the character that people remember about the film the most. One of the most common praises Thrax gets is that he was just too good a villain for the movie we got, and that he should have appeared more. Along with Ozzy and Drix, Thrax tends to be a fan suggestion for ''VideoGame/MultiVersus''.
174	* ColdHam: Usually he keeps his voice very light and low, but he is also capable of letting '''real''' loose when excited, or angry, as shown above.
175	* CoolShades: He owns a pair of sunglasses and wears them frequently.
176	* CreepySouvenir: He carries around a chain of DNA beads taken from previous victims.
177	* DeaderThanDead: Thrax meets a gruesome end by falling into a beaker of alcohol. We're shown quite explicitly that he is violently dissolved into nonexistence, never to trouble the world again.
178	* DeadpanSnarker: He tends to make dry comments about things he finds off, most notably on the somewhat low quality of Frank's criminal underworld, as well as his memories.
179	* DiseasedName: And a PunnyName at that, as his name is a play on the bacterial disease anthrax. This is a bit odd, however, considering that he's a virus and not a bacterium. It's possible that his name is purely for [[InNameOnly aesthetic]].
180	* DisneyVillainDeath: {{Double Subverted\|Trope}}. He falls, but the fall doesn't kill him -- it's ''what he falls into'' that does. [[AMoltenDateWithDeath And we get to see it.]]
181	* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Thrax's first appearance in Frank's gumline has him kill two saliva cells that were working to clean Frank's mouth[[note]]Artie can be heard screaming as he is killed offscreen and the only thing that's left of him are his eyeballs in his vacuum pack, while Artie's co-worker is killed by Thrax's TouchOfDeath[[/note]] before setting their boat on fire, immediately letting the viewers know that he's an extremely dangerous and ruthless virus that poses a bigger threat to Frank than the other germs that were fought at the beginning. His ability to combust cellular matter, humming "Fever" by Little Willie John, and his quote "Think I'll turn up the heat in here!" are all used to foreshadow how he plans to kill Frank.
182	* EvenEvilHasStandards: For as much of a serial killer Thrax is, just a couple minutes in Frank's dreams nearly gave him a panic attack.
183	-->'''Thrax:''' This cat was sick before I even got here.
184	* EvilIsBigger: Downplayed. He towers over every germ and cell we see, and only Drix is larger than he is.
185	* EvilIsBurningHot: Thrax's immolating TouchOfDeath takes the form of one of his talons (the one on his left index finger) [[HotBlade glowing red hot]]. His plan to kill Frank involves sabotaging his hypothalamus, which is the gland responsible (among other things) for regulating body temperature. Once Thrax steals an important component of the hypothalamus, the temperature skyrockets and deadly fires start breaking out across the city.
186	-->'''Thrax:''' Think I'll turn up the heat in here!
187	* EvilLaugh: He lets out a very sinister one in one scene much to his goons' nervousness.
188	-->'''Goon 1''': What's so funny ?
189	-->'''Goon 2''': I don't know.
190	* EvilSoundsDeep: Courtesy of Creator/LaurenceFishburne, who is a baritone. His voice is considerably deeper than the raspy tenor of Osmosis Jones.
191	* {{Expy}}: Given his color scheme and extremely short action timespan, he's one of Creator/EdgarAllanPoe's Red Death from "Literature/TheMasqueOfTheRedDeath". This is given a nod via a witness calling him "''La Muerte Roja''".
192	* FameThroughInfamy: He hopes that his murders will get him a chapter dedicated to him in the medical textbooks.
193	* FamilyUnfriendlyDeath:
194	** His TouchOfDeath has pretty gruesome results, and one of the first things he does is inflict this on an innocent cell. Said victim proceeds to boil alive from the inside out.
195	** [[LaserGuidedKarma Fittingly]], [[KarmicDeath this ends up being Thrax's own fate]]; he falls into a beaker of rubbing alcohol and is completely dissolved.
196	* FauxAffablyEvil: He's smooth, charismatic, and likes to hum "Fever" by Little Willie John, but is ''barely'' interested in coming across as affable, and will drop the charming act in a [[{{Pun}} hot]] second.
197	* FingerPokeOfDoom: Quite literally with his first victim. "Ow" indeed.
198	* GloryHound: He intends to get his own chapter in the medical books and doesn't care how many bodies he leaves in his wake.
199	* HorrifyingTheHorror: PlayedForLaughs. When Thrax goes into Frank's subconscious, he's visibly disturbed upon seeing some of Frank's nightmares and bad memories.
200	--> '''Thrax:''' ''[after escaping from the subconscious]'' Phew! This cat was sick before I even ''got'' here...
201	* ItsAllAboutMe: Given that he's single-mindedly concerned with racking up as many victims as possible in the shortest possible time, it's no surprise that Thrax is a profound egotist.
202	* KnightOfCerebus: Were you expecting a movie about Chris Rock as a blood cell to have a virus in the form of a serial killer?
203	* LackOfEmpathy: He makes everyone around him (both humans and the organisms inhabiting them) suffer without any qualms whatsoever, and refers to his victims with the impersonal fondness one might use when talking about a mountain they've climbed or a game animal they've shot.
204	* {{Leitmotif}}: "Fever" by Little Willie John, though it's invoked because he's always humming it. The title alone suits him.
205	* AMoltenDateWithDeath: How Thrax meets his end: after Ozzy traps him in a false eyelash that falls into a glass of rubbing alcohol, he's completely liquefied by it once he surfaces.
206	* MonstrousGerms: He is a red-skinned humanoid with tentacle-like dreadlocks and a large burning claw on one of his hands.
207	* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Thrax, meant to evoke '''an'''thrax.
208	* OmnicidalManiac: Thrax's plans involve killing people, causing the total extinction of entire civilizations of cells and microbes inside their bodies. The loss of life is apocalyptic at the cellular level, with an implied decimation among humans (since Thrax wants his own chapter in the medical books, he'd likely seek to become an epidemic, which would entail massive loss of life and be the microbe equivalent of a [[ApocalypseHow/ClassX3 X-3]] ApocalypseHow at best and a [[ApocalypseHow/ClassX4 Class X-4]] at worst).
209	* ThePerfectionist: Thrax wants to kill Frank in record time with hopes of getting his own chapter in the medical books.
210	* PlayingWithFire: His fingernail claw burns whatever he scratches into a melting, burning lava mess.
211	* RedAndBlackAndEvilAllOver: Red-skinned, dressed in black, and [[ObviouslyEvil definitely evil]].
212	* RedIsViolent: He's a red-skinned homicidal and sadistic virus.
213	* {{Sadist}}: Beyond being the microbial equivalent to a PlanetDestroyer, Thrax enjoys hurting others way more than he needs to in the pursuit of his goals. He taunts the odd victim before killing them or taking them hostage (the moment where he taunts Ozzy that he's going to infect and kill Frank's daughter after killing Ozzy is particularly noteworthy), and he breaks Bruiser's arm just to make a statement whilst taking over Scabies' crew. Furthermore, when Thrax reaches the hypothalamus, he kills the two hapless brain cells at the gland in needlessly creative and vicious ways instead of using his (admittedly already gruesome) FingerPokeOfDoom on them: throwing one cell against the hypothalamus to be violently vaporized, and as a background bonus ''stabbing the other cell to death with multiple syringes to the back''.
214	%%* ScaryBlackMan: Invoked by Creator/LaurenceFishburne.
215	* SerialKiller: He keeps DNA beads stolen from each of his victims as trophies and reminisces fondly about them.
216	* ASinisterClue: It's the hand he uses to kill all his victims and spread his infection.
217	* SinisterShades: He sports a pair that, apart from making him look cool, give him an even more intimidating aura. He's prone to popping them on whenever he's doing something particularly destructive.
218	* SlasherSmile: He sports quite a few throughout the movie, the [[NightmareFace most notable one]] being when he threatens to kill Frank's daughter.
219	* SmallNameBigEgo: Evoked for drama. He's got maybe twenty kills to his name, is an unknown virus, kills via a lethal but otherwise unremarkable fever, and insists that ebola is a case of dandruff compared to him... ebola, the disease that's dreaded because it can have a mortality rate as high as 90% and cause people to bleed out all their orifices. His behavior suggests that he's aware of this, and that's why it's such a sore spot.
220	* TheSociopath: He'll kill as many people as it takes to get into the medical books.
221	* TerroristWithoutACause: He's out for glory and a personal challenge; that's about it.
222	* TooSpicyForYogSothoth: Frank's subconscious dreams actually succeed in freaking him out. It's one of the few times we see his effortless cool ruffled.
223	* TouchOfDeath: His left index finger causes any organic matter it touches to combust or explode.
224	* VileVillainSaccharineShow: It's a goofy buddy comedy full of gross bodily humor, and then along comes Thrax, whose long list of victims includes at least one small child.
225	* VillainousCheekbones: Thrax's cheekbones are so pointy they look sharp, and he is clearly evil.
226	* WouldHarmASenior: He boasts that he killed an old man in 72 hours.
227	* WouldHurtAChild: Aside from threatening to have poor Shane join both of her parents in death after having her father die right before her eyes, Thrax previously killed another girl who didn't like to wash her hands.
228	* YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe: He laughs at the fact that, for all the bodies he's destroyed, no one has ever figured out it was him. Osmosis Jones and Drix were the first to do so, but they were scoffed at by a foolish mayor and fired for it. Even he can't believe how easy they made it for him.

275	* TheMourningAfter: Still mourning the loss of his wife, Maggie.
276	* TooDumbToLive: What kicks off the whole plot as he ''eats an egg that was inside the mouth of a chimpanzee and got spat out onto the ground.''

282	* BrokenBird: Became this for multiple reasons, namely her mother's death, her father vomiting on her teacher and getting fired, a restraining order and a dead end job at the zoo as a result of it and finally, her being ostracized by her peers because of the incident.
