Walt Disney Co.’s 100th birthday is later this year, which is an exciting milestone. So to celebrate, Variety ranked the best Disney villains of all time. The outlet states, “Disney movie villains have played vital roles in simultaneously frightening viewers and becoming fan favorites over the decades.”
10.Jafar - Aladdin
9.Captain Hook - Peter Pan
8.Humans - Bambi
7.Lady Tremaine - Cinderella
6.Yzma - The Emperor's New Groove
5.Gaston - Beauty and the Beast
4.Cruella de Vil - 101 Dalmatians
3.Ursula - The Little Mermaid
2.Scar - The Lion King
#1 is Maleficent – Sleeping Beauty. Variety said, “A powerful presence, aside from her iconic design of sorcery and fashionable headpieces, the 'Sleeping Beauty' villain is the essence of cruelty and evil.”
Do you agree with this No. 1 choice? Who else should have been on the list? I think the The Evil Queen from Snow White should have.
