Artist Reimagines 5 Disney Dads As Real People And They Look Like Hollywood Actors
Jirka Väätäinen is a Finnish graphic designer and illustrator whose illustrations of Disney characters in real life went viral a few years ago. Now the artist is back with a handful of new illustrations – this time he reimagined Disney dads as real people and they look like they could be real Hollywood actors.
Jirka reimagined 5 characters many people may not remember that vividly – Tarzan’s dad John, Pocahontas’s dad Chief Powhatan, Aladdin’s father Cassim, Ariel’s father King Triton, and Hercules’ father Zeus.

In an interview with Bored Panda , Jirka said the project started with him wanting to give King Triton a realistic makeover since “The Little Mermaid” is his favorite Disney Movie. Since it was a while since the artist had done such a series, he decided to take on other Disney father figures as well.

“This whole Disney project of mine has gone on for eight years, and to be honest, I do struggle with finding the time and inspiration to keep on creating more,” said Jirka. “Having said that, it has still remained a fun thing to do if I do find spare time, though. So we will have to see when this wave of inspiration hits me again.”
