I've got my eye on you Gillman girl, AND MY OTHER EYE TOO!
―Gordon Lighthouse.

Gordon Lighthouse is a sailor and tour guide who serves as the secondary antagonist in the DreamWorks film, Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken.

Background[]

Official Description[]

Gordon Lighthouse is the town soothsayer, who claims he has interacted with Krakens back in the day. Once he senses that the mythical monster has returned, he goes all out to try and capture it, and he makes a following on YouTube and social media doing so.[1]

Trivia[]

  • His name is likely a reference to the late Canadian Folk singer Gordon Lightfoot, who died a month prior to the film’s release.
  • His name also references the lighthouse that is used to guide ships.
  • Nick Offerman, Andy Sandberg, Jon Favreau, and Bill Hader we’re considered for the role but Will Forte got the role, thanks to an old SNL skit he done decades before.
  • His job is inspired by the real life amphibious tours known as "duck tours" due to many such tours using DUKWs ("Ducks"), either WW2 authentic or replica.
