Stuart Little is the titular protagonist in a series of American family comedy films loosely based on a 1945 children's novel by E. B. White. In the films, Stuart is an orphaned mouse adopted by the Little family as its new member. The talking white mouse is friendly, outgoing, well-mannered and courageous. Despite his diminutive stature, Stuart is never afraid to be himself and try big things.

The first film of the series was released on Dec. 17, 1999 by Columbia Pictures. It was followed by a sequel, "Stuart Little 2" in 2002, the short-lived TV series "Stuart Little" in 2003, and another sequel in 2005, the direct-to-video "Stuart Little 3: Call of the Wild."
