#17: Rachel Winfree as Rose
Rose is the softer, more nurturing half of the Grinch’s adoptive mom duo. Her gentle attempts to raise a prickly, green baby create some of the film’s cutest and funniest flashback moments. She represents the warm, well-meaning heart of Whoville’s eccentric parenting style.

Earlier in her career, Rachel Winfree had appeared in a mix of TV and film roles, often playing kind, maternal characters. She brought a calm, grounded energy to her performances, making her a natural fit for a role that required warmth without overshadowing the comedy around her.
