** 1973 film: [[Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In|Henry Gibson]] plays Wilbur, and [[Bye Bye Birdie|Paul Lynde]] (who had previously lent his voice to other [[Hanna-Barbera]] works) plays Templeton.
** 2006 film: [[Julia Roberts]] is Charlotte, [[Steve Buscemi]] is Templeton, [[Oprah Winfrey]] is a goose and [[Robert Redford]] is a horse.
* [[What Could Have Been]]: John Hubley (co-creator of ''[[Mr. Magoo]]'') was originally slated to direct the animated version, but could not procure funding. The job was next given to Gene Deitch, who struck a friendship with White during his correspondence with him. According to his [https://web.archive.org/web/20131026180945/http://genedeitchcredits.com/roll-the-credits/39-e-b-white/ blog], Deitch was well aware that his version was doomed to [[Development Hell]]. The storyboard he sent to the producers was returned unopened.
** In the 1973 version, Templeton was to have been voiced by Tony Randall but left the project as the directors wanted a more nasally voice. Paul Lynde's casting was based on a suggestion by Randall.
