This is a list of Disney Villain characters, often based on fictional antagonist characters who have been featured as part of the Disney character line-up. Some of these villain characters have appeared in sequels, video games, comic books, stage productions, or live-action adaptations of the original films.

Contents

Much like with the Disney Princess line with some of Disney's female lead animated characters, Disney's villain characters are also often grouped together as part of a Disney Villains franchise, formed by various antagonists from Walt Disney Pictures productions, with a main focus on characters from animated films, mainly those from Walt Disney Animation Studios productions. [3] [4] [5]

List of villains

The characters listed here are featured in Disney productions and merchandise as "official" villains.

Primary villains

These characters are seen in most current Disney Villains related merchandise, live events, attractions, etc. The characters are also known as "The 13 Reflections of Evil". [6]

Minor villains

These characters appear or have appeared in the franchise less frequently.

Merchandising

In August 2018, a strategy game titled Disney Villainous was designed by Prospero Hall, published by Ravensburger and released exclusively to Target stores. The game has players compete as Disney Villains attempting to accomplish their goals from the film, while simultaneously trying to slow down their opponents. As of March 2021, four standalone expansions have released, with each adding three different playable villains. [76]

Villain merchandise was available at the former Villains in Vogue store in Sunset Blvd, at Disney's Hollywood Studios. This first store was so successful that the Disneyland Villain Shop was opened afterwards in 1991. [77] Both of these have since now closed.[ citation needed ]

USAopoly has released a number of products featuring Disney villains. Among them is a Monopoly-based board game called My Disney Villains Monopoly, where the players decide which of 30 villains can appear on each space on the board (characters that appear in the game that are not part of the official Villain list include Beagle Boys, Three Little Wolves, Pom-Pom, Man, Hound Dogs, and Chief); a checkers game; [78] and a collector's card game set. [79]

An online Disney trivia game called Who Wants to be a Villionaire, released in October 2001, is loosely based on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? and features several villains as hosts, asking questions about the film in which they are featured. The "Phone-a-Friend" feature is renamed "Phone-a-Fiend" and will connect the player to Cruella de Vil. [80] [81]

There is a sub-franchise derived from Disney villains entitled Disney's Divas of Darkness. The line-up includes Maleficent, the Evil Queen, Cruella de Vil, Ursula, and the Queen of Hearts. [2]

The Villains Designer Collection re-imagines the stylish wickedness of Disney villains. This line of merchandise includes Maleficent, Cruella de Vil, the Evil Queen, the Queen of Hearts, Ursula and Mother Gothel. [1]

[87] During the fireworks show HalloWishes some villains arrive to the celebration, starting with Ursula "plopping in" on the party and adding her own musical mix to the festivities. Jafar and Oogie Boogie soon follow, and arriving last is Maleficent showing the audience how Halloween should really be celebrated.

Dream Along with Mickey

In the Dream Along with Mickey stage show at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom, the Disney villains appear onstage to threaten Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Donald Duck and Goofy. Maleficent states that since people no longer believe in dreams, it is the perfect time for her to return to power and make the Magic Kingdom "The Place Where Nightmares Come True"—a play on the Walt Disney Parks and Resorts slogan of "The Place Where Dreams Come True". She is also accompanied by Captain Hook.

Villains Tonight

Kingdom Hearts series

In the Kingdom Hearts series of action role-playing games developed and published by Disney Interactive Studios and Square Enix, Disney villains play a major role as they seek to harness the power of darkness. The villains are antagonists in different worlds, such as the Villains group led by Maleficent, with Pete as her main henchman, Hades in Olympus, Jafar in Agrabah, Ursula in Atlantica, Oogie Boogie in Halloween Town, Captain Hook in Neverland, and Scar in the Pride Land. Other villain in the group outside the official line-up is Captain Barbossa of Port Royal.

Epic Mickey series

Epic Mickey introduces new villains to the world of Disney, most of which are from old-style Disney films and attractions. In the first game, Mickey unwittingly creates a monster called the Shadow Blot (not to be confused with the Phantom Blot). As Mickey tries to get rid of it, Yen Sid approaches and Mickey is forced to flee, leaving some of the Blot undestroyed. Years later, the Blot has Mickey kidnapped so that his heart can be used to escape Wasteland. With Oswald's help, Mickey returns home as the Blot is defeated. The game also features an animatronic version of Captain Hook from Peter Pan as a boss.

In the second game, The Mad Doctor tries to rule in the Shadow Blot's stead. In the first game, the Mad Doctor supplied robots for the Blot. If the player choose the Hero path, The Mad Doctor turns from a robot into a toon. If the player chooses the Scrapper path, The Mad Doctor is left in the final battle room to rot. Lastly, at the end of the second game, several versions of Pete look like they're going to try to take over the Wasteland.

Board games

Disney Villainous

The Villainous board game franchise, published by Ravensburger, puts players in the roles of Disney villains. It has been praised by critics and fans for its lush artwork and easy-to-learn yet compelling strategy elements. The game is unique in that it features an asymmetrical structure, with players working to complete their own unique goals. The core game, The Worst Takes It All, has been followed up with five expansions (to date): Wicked to the Core, Evil Comes Prepared, Perfectly Wretched, Despicable Plots, and Bigger and Badder. [103]

Legacy

Disney villains proved their mark in cinematic history when the American Film Institute named Grimhilde the Evil Queen from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs as the 10th-greatest movie villain of all time. Other Disney Villains on AFI's list were the unseen hunter(s) from Bambi and Cruella de Vil from 101 Dalmatians . [104] AFI did not rely on Disney's classification of who qualified as a villain, but used this definition instead:

a "villain" was defined as a character(s) whose wickedness of mind, selfishness of character and will to power are sometimes masked by beauty and nobility, while others may rage unmasked. They can be horribly evil or grandiosely funny, but are ultimately tragic. [105]

Other Disney villains who got a nomination here were Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty , Ursula from The Little Mermaid , Lady Tremaine from Cinderella , and Stromboli from Pinocchio . [106]
