10 Star Wars Characters Recast With Disney Animated Characters

6. Queen Grimhilde as "Emperor Palpatine"

Despite these two characters being of different sexes they have a hell of a lot in common for this not to be the right casting choice. First of all they both have two main appearances in their individual films. In the prequels Palpatine looks like a friendly old man, but in the sequel he is a hagged old man who covers himself with a cloak named Darth Sidious. In Snow White, the Queen has the ability to transform herself, similar to Darth Sidious (the Emperor) into an old, clocked hag. Also, both characters pretty much rule over their kingdoms and won't let anyone stand in the way of them having complete power. Both characters also suffer fairly similar deaths. Whilst trying to electrocute Luke to death, Darth Sidious (with lightening coming out of his hands) is thrown down a hole to his death by Vader. The Queen in Snow White, while trying to roll a boulder over the Dwarfs and kill them, falls to her death when lightening hits the cliff she is standing on.
