As we shared earlier this month, “Villains Unleashed,” a new, separately ticketed event at Disney’s Hollywood Studios, will feature more than 50 Disney villains. Villains will appear at the event in several different ways, participating in character greetings, stage shows, and more.

- Pain
- Panic
- Anastasia
- Drizella

- Darth Maul
- Boba Fett
- Asajj Ventress

If they had Lotso there and available for evil strawberry scented hugs I’d hop a plane just for this. So sad they look away his meet and greet 🙁
So will there be meet and greets? or just villains roaming the park??
I know it’s a long shot, but I’m hoping either Mother Gothel or Hans makes an appearance. They’d be such a great addition to the event!
We are contemplating going, but have reservations at BOG at 6:20. I figure we would not get to the event until 9:00. I am wondering what time it ends??
No Shadow Man?
Robert,
I’ve heard rumors that this might eventually become a regular hard ticket event. I was lucky enough to be at WDW during Sept 13 for the first Unleash the Villains event. That they are now doing it as a hard ticket event shows their investment in the idea and hopefully they will make this a permanent addition (like Very Merry Christmas and Not So Scary Halloween). Then again, I’m also rooting for Harambe Nights to become an event like the Christmas event at EPCOT.
Oh! Got it! Thanks everyone! 😀
We need Maleficent!!
Oogie Boogie Please 🙂
I’m excited about Bowler Hat Guy!
I miss seeing the Queen of Hearts at the Magic Kingdom! She was wickedly hilarious!
If Disney ever does this again it should give more notice to the public. I would have made my next trip (from Canada) coincide with this event. With only a few months notice only locals and people who happen to be lucky enough to already have a trip planned can attend 🙁
i can just never see Mr Smee as a “villain”
To answer Joseph’s question above, Gideon and J. Worthington Foulfellow are the cat and fox (respectively) from Pinocchio.
I hope Oogie Boogie and Shan Yu will be available for meet and greets as well!
Joseph, Gideon is from Pinocchio, as is Foulfellow.
Meg wasn’t exactly a villain but she started out as being under Hades thumb and working for him in exchange for Hades saving the life of her then boyfriend. So she isn’t the typical villain.
Joseph, Gideon is Foulfellow’s feline sidekick in Pinocchio. The one who walks upright with the help of a cane not the sweet little black n white feline of Gepetto’s. I really wish I could go to this!!! Back in 1997 I was fortunate enough to be a volunteer for Hercules premier parade in NYC, but never able to get my photo with any of the characters. I wanna go just to see them!!!
The above list of walkaround characters only counts 25, not counting five others that only show up on rare events…Fans have been wondering, how will the remaining 20 be “featured”?
Meg can’t help it, she -hangs around- with villains. We know her reputation’s good, but as long as it gets her back in the park. 🙂
(Speaking of which, ahem, nice to see the Wicked Queen hasn’t been forgotten once in a while.)
@Joseph – I’m…….PRETTY sure Gideon = the Fox’s sidekick from Pinocchio, rather than the cable cartoon character. Just a hunch.
No, the Gideon they are referring to is the one from Pinocchio. He is the cat that hangs out with Honest John.
Is Gideon from the Disney Channel show “Gravity Falls”? If so, does that mean Dipper, Mabel, and Gideon will be coming to Disney Parks?
I’m with Jason, Meg’s not a villain. 🙁
No Maleficent?!? Inconceivable!
Sorry… the villains are evil, they shouldn’t be dancing to pop music.
Thanks so much for the preview! This would totally be worth flying cross country for! Plus Villains aren’t evil. merely misunderstood!
Gaston & the Queen of Hearts as listed twice.
Wait a minute. Meg’s not a villain.
I’m confused. How can there be a pre-parade when Disney’s Hollywood Studios no longer has a parade?
so are they going to put the Star Wars Villain owns Star Wars but are they going to have the Star Wars villains in the same places that they have them at Star Wars Weekend or will they have them over by Star Tours?
