Rowley Jefferson

Template:InfoCharacterRowley Jefferson is Greg's best gayboy and sidekick and the deuteragonist of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series in general. He is an absolute chad who gets all the ladies. He has overprotective parents who need to contain Rowley's power in order to keep him from destroying the world.

In the fourth book, he died.

Personality

Rowley is best known for being a good best friend to Greg. Rowley is quite immature and seems a bit naive, but his charming, cheerful and innocent nature made him more popular with other students (particularly the girls) than Greg had. His friendship with Greg is arguably more legitimate in the films than in the books: in the novels, Greg primarily uses Rowley for personal gain, though they are legitimate friends nonetheless. In Dog Days, he smashes "The Muddy Hand", which is really Gregory's hand.

Physical Appearance

In the movie series, Rowley is a boy with a thick build and long bowl shaped hair that is orange and is wider than Greg's, but his hair is golden brown in Rodrick Rules and Dog Days. In the book series, he has 7 strands of hair that is flat on his head and is wider than Greg's. He has two large teeth and his mouth never appears to be closed, except for a few occasions. In Hard Luck, since he started dating Abigail Brown, he combed his hair differently, and had 9 strands rather than 7. After the break-up, he goes back to his original look.

Trivia

He appears in all of the books and movies, and the online version as well, to date, but he only made a small appearance in Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul and Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Getaway.
He is Jeff Kinney’s favourite character.
It is never revealed what country Rowley went to on his trip to South America in the book series, but the online book states that he went to Brazil. It is said in the first film that Rowley went to Guatemala.

The year of Rowley's birth is presumed to be around 1998.

In the online book, Rowley is said to own a PlayStation with 42 games. However, in the movie, Rowley is shown to have a Wii, meaning that he possibly upgraded his console.
Rowley has visited numerous continents, including Europe, Australia, and South America.
Rowley has closed his mouth five times, twice in the Diary of a Wimpy Kid Online, once in Cabin Fever, once in The Third Wheel, and once in Hard Luck.
Rowley serves as the main antagonist of the first book, due to him and Greg's fight, The Ugly Truth because they separate in Dog Days and get back together in the book, and was a major antagonist in Hard Luck, because he was ditching and betraying Greg for his now girlfriend Abigail Brown, who served as the main antagonist.
