Michael "Mike" Wazowski is the deuteragonist in Monsters, Inc. and its prequel, Monsters University. His voice is performed by the comedian Billy Crystal.

Monsters, Inc.

In the first film, Mike is Sulley's best friend and working partner at Monsters, Inc.. He is also Celia Mae's boyfriend and seems to be watched at by Roz who awaits for his paperwork. While at Harryhausen's for Celia's birthday, Sulley appeared out of nowhere to tell Mike that he had lead a human girl into the monster world. Putting her into a Monsters, Inc. gym bag, Sulley tried to show him, but the human girl got out of the bag and wreaked havoc all over the restaurant. The two secretly took her out before the CDA found her and disinfected the entire restaurant.

Sometime after the film, Mike's low-budget company play Put That Thing Back Where It Came From, Or So Help Me that he has starred in, written, directed, and produced comes in front of the audiences.

Mike's New Car

In the short, Mike is now the main protagonist of his own story. He has brought a new six-wheel drive car, and wants to show it to Sulley. When they both get in the car, Sulley accidentally ruins the brand-new car and injures Mike. In the end, Mike speeds off and wrecks the car completely.

Monsters University

Mike is set to reappear in the prequel.

Characteristics

Mike and Sulley argue and/or fight sometimes; however, it is usually Sulley who annoys Mike first. He is funny, smart, brave, but can sometimes fail to see the obvious in a situation.
