In the present day, Muntz is therefore 92 years old while Carl is 78; an age gap of 14 years.Muntz’s age when he first went on his expedition is never stated, but he still seems fairly young, I’d say mid to late twenties. By that time, Carl and Ellie were kids, and by the time we catch up to Carl in his elderly age, he’s confirmed to be 78.We know from Pixar Wiki that Carl is 8 years old at the beginning of the film and of course Charles is an adult but we don’t know how old. We know Carl is 78 years old for the rest of the film so how old does that make Charles when they meet?
Why didn’t Ellie get pregnant in Up?
Their marriage is a happy and loving one, and they looked forward to starting a family together. Unfortunately, Ellie suffers a miscarriage and learns that she is now infertile. They planned to have children, but Ellie was diagnosed infertile, and they repeatedly pooled their savings for a trip to Paradise Falls but ended up spending it on more pressing needs.From that point on, the filmmakers went with a sorrowful version of the sequence. In one cutting room session, one part of the sequence in which Ellie is despondent having learned she is not able to have children, received many notes from members of the studio, believing the moment may have pushed things too far.They planned to have children, but Ellie was diagnosed infertile, and they repeatedly pooled their savings for a trip to Paradise Falls but ended up spending it on more pressing needs. Just as Carl and Ellie finally seemed to be able to make their trip, Ellie contracted a terminal illness and passed away.Then one day while out on another picnic with her husband (who was planning to surprise her with the plane tickets he had bought), she collapsed from illness and became hospitalized. Before passing away, she gave Carl her old Adventure Book, but she was unable to tell him of its true meaning (due to infirmity).
Who is older, Carl or Ellie?
Ellie was one year younger than her husband. If she was still alive, she would have been 78 years old, the same age as Carl. Following Ellie’s death, Carl became lonely, cranky, and bitter and misses his wife terribly, but became nicer with Russell’s help. Carl has the typical stubborn character of a man his age, but deep down he’s a kind person but has his limits in patience and temper.Sharing the slogan that their “Adventure is out there,” the two live happily in an old house that they restore together. But their happiness together, and their dreams of the future, are interrupted when Ellie becomes ill and dies, leaving Carl alone, depressed, disillusioned, and embittered.
