Numerous characters created by Pixar have attitudes that could make them true heroes; discover 5 of them on the list!
Pixar only has one superhero team, and they were introduced in “The Incredibles,” a title released in 2004, where Elastigirl, Violet Parr, Mr. Incredible, Jack-Jack Parr and Dash appeared wearing their costumes without capes for the first time, as did the family friend Frozone. The story gained a sequel in 2018, marking the studio’s latest story featuring humans with special abilities.
It is true that there are no more heroic characters in the studio, however, there are some animated figures who could earn the title of heroes due to their attitudes, as they put themselves at great risk to prevent bad actions from resulting in disasters or tragedies.
Discover some of them below:
1. Emotions (Inside Out 1 and 2)
Released in 2015, “Inside Out” introduced Riley’s 5 primary emotions: Joy, Disgust, Anger, Fear and Sadness, while the sequel, released in 2024, brought four more: Shame, Anxiety, Envy and Boredom. In the films, the characters face major crises when the girl goes through changes, causing them to put their own existences in danger in an attempt to keep Riley’s mind functioning healthily.
2. Marlin (Finding Nemo)
A father trying to find his son could be nothing more than a superhero! In “Finding Nemo” (2003), Marlin embarks on a long and threatening adventure across the ocean, facing humans and sharks alongside Dory to save Nemo, who was captured by a diver and ends up in a dentist’s aquarium.
3. Flick (A Bug’s Life)
In “A Bug’s Life” (1998), the ants live in the service of the Grasshoppers, since their lives are threatened if they do not gather the necessary food to keep them full. As a result, Flick forms a rebel alliance to try to free the anthill from Hopper’s command, putting his own skin in danger by developing several plans to finally have the freedom he dreams of.
4. Wall-E (Wall-E)
Created to compact the waste produced by humans on Earth, Wall-E (the title character of the 2008 feature film) is much more than just a robot. That’s because he ends up discovering the last vestige of life on the planet, bringing hope that the big blue globe will become habitable again.
5. Woody (Toy Story)
“Toy Story” (1995) is full of toy heroes, and one of them is Woody. The rag doll with Andy’s name signed on his boot was introduced as a jealous and grumpy character, since, with the arrival of Buzz Lightyear, he is desperate to prove his worth while teaching the space doll a lesson.
However, when his plan goes wrong, he has to risk his life by facing cars and a child who loves to destroy toys to get Buzz back to Andy’s room, proving that he is willing to do anything to keep his friend safe.
