What is the rabbit in Donnie Darko?
Frank
James Duval plays Frank, an enormous imaginary rabbit who informs Donnie that the world is going to end in 28 days. Even in the earliest drafts of the script, Frank was always a rabbit. The design may have come to him in a dream, Kelly says, or maybe subconsciously from his longtime love of Watership Down.

Why is Frank a rabbit in Donnie Darko?
Within this context, Frank’s ugliness might be explained as the destructive side of salvation. Perhaps he is a monstrous rabbit in order to suggest that Donnie himself must become both prey/ victim and a kind of spiritual predator.
Where did the jet engine come from in Donnie Darko?
The Jet Engine comes out of the divergent time line involving the events of the movie (and from his mother’s plane), and is supposedly sent back in time through the same wormhole that Donnie uses to time travel with. Unfortunately, Donnie was miles away when he actually traveled back in time.
What does the rabbit in Donnie Darko represent?
Director Richard Kelly, however, claims that he had never seen Harvey before he made the film, and that the creepy rabbit is actually inspired by the Richard Adams novel Watership Down and the animated movie based on it. The giant creepy rabbit in the movie represents the future.
