Rodney Copperbottom is a robot character from the animated film Robots. He is voiced by Ewan McGregor.

Ever since a young 'bot', Rodney dreamed of being an inventor and finally meet his childhood hero Bigweld, "the greatest robot of all". His first invention, the "Wonder-bot", starts him off, but there's one thing, and after a brief trail run at the diner that his father works at, his invention goes crazy. Wonderbot was doing a fine job until Mr.Copperbottom's boss, Mr.Gunk, comes in and scares Wonderbot enough to make him stop what he's doing, and drops some dishes which makes them break. After being harshly fired, Rodney decides to leave his home in Rivet Town to go to Robot City, and sell his idea to Bigweld, and make his father proud. However his dreams are halted when he is thrown out by the crazied "replacement", Ratchet, and meets the Rusties, a group of "outmodes" (an outdated 'bot that is worn or has broken parts), living in the ghetto.

Though at first it seemed that he was getting nowhere, but following his hero's words "see a need, fill a need", he helps by fixing the outmodes, literalty pull themselves together. Although Ratchet is not happy as he wants to "exterminate" outmodes in the first place.
