Alex is then given fish from Rico, one of the penguins, instead of steak to sooth his meat craving. Marty is chased by the fossa but Alex and his friends with a little help from the penguins defeat the fossa. Marty sets out to find him and refuses to leave without him. Alex, Marty, Melman and Gloria enjoy themselves until Alex goes carnivorous and is sent to the carnivore side of the island. The next morning, Alex and Marty wake up and find themselves surrounded by lemurs who tell them they are in Madagascar. Alex and Marty have a brief fight but they later make up and Marty welcomes Alex to the 'fun side of the island.' They are then welcomed by King Julien, Maurice, Mort and many other lemurs just as Alex scares away the fossa, who have been terrorizing the lemurs. Soon, all four friends end up at Madagascar. The quartet wake up in their crates, but soon Alex and Marty argue and have a 'crate fight.' It isn't long before they get stranded and separated at sea. Later that night, Alex, Gloria and Melman hold a party for Marty, but are stocked when he says that he wishes to go to the wild.Īfter Marty escapes the zoo, Alex, Gloria and Melman go after him and catch up with him at Grand Central Station, where they are tranquilized and put in crates to be shipped to Africa. Alakay is renamed Alex and is placed in his own enclosure and meets three other young animals: a zebra named Marty, a hippopotamus named Gloria (who thinks Alex is cute) and a giraffe named Melman (who has feelings for Gloria), who later become his friends.Īround 10 years later, Alex goes to Marty and wishes him a happy 10th birthday (which is roughly 40 in zebra years) and gives him a snow globe as a present. The crate drifts to New York at long last, where it is found and taken to Central Park Zoo. The crate containing Alakay falls out of the truck and lands into the ocean and he has been swept away. After he defeated Makunga, Zuba goes after the truck in an attempt to rescue his son, but he gets shot in the ear by one of the poachers and he has been forced to watch helplessly as the truck drives off. Whilst this was going on, Alakay was lured away and captured by poachers, who placed him in a crate in their truck and drove off. Just then, Zuba's rival Makunga shows up and battles him for the title of Alpha Lion.

One day, when he was a young cub, Alakay was being given fighting lessons by Zuba, however Alakay was more interested in dancing, much to his father's dismay. He was voiced by Quinn Dempsey Stiller (in Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa) and Tucker Chandler (in Madagascar: A Little Wild) as a child and Ben Stiller as an adult lion who also portrays Derek Zoolander in Zoolander franchise, Larry Daley in Night at the Museum franchise and Robbie in the American redubs of Robbie the Reindeer, In one hour episode of The Penguins of Madagascar he is voice by Wally Wingert who also did Flik in Disney's Sing Along Songs and Crispin Freeman in a brief cameo in the finale of All Hail King Julien as well.Īlex was born in Africa as Alakay to Zuba and Florrie, who were the leaders of their pride. Ever since, he has lived in the Central Park Zoo, though he, and his three friends, Marty, Melman, and Gloria, have been shipped to the titular location, Madagascar. When Makunga, Zuba's rival, tried to take his place as alpha lion, a group of human hunters trapped Alex and tamed him.

His father, Zuba, the alpha lion of his herd, tried to educate him to hunt, though Alex wanted to dance. He's a lion and 'The King of New York.' He was born in Africa. He also serves as a major character of the specials and a minor character of the short films and the Penguins of Madagascar movie.
