Ukraine-born artist Helen Morgun gave us a cool drawing series we didn't know we needed. She reimagined our beloved famous people as Disney characters. Helen has been working on the drawing ideas for quite some time now, and the unexpected mashups have been taking the internet by storm.
From Emma Stone as Merida to Billie Eilish as Kida Nedakh, Helen definitely gave Hollywood some ideas to consider. It's clear that the artist carefully studies not only the physical features but personalities of each famous person before "assigning" them their animated character alter-egos. Scroll down, upvote your favorite famous characters and let us know in the comments what you think of the series.

Tom Hiddleston As Hades
"I've been in love with Disney since childhood," Helen told Bored Panda. "Over the years, I've collected wonderful memories of Disney cartoons and characters. And the amazing thing is that they continue to surprise me.
"The artist said that she started this series with the drawing of Rachel McAdams, "I painted her as Cinderella. I really love this popular actress and it always seemed to me that she would be very suitable for this role. After completing the portrait, I decided that it was possible to make a series of drawings with different famous people as Disney characters and began to look for similarities. My followers liked the idea as well."
Rihanna As Tiana
"I started doing polls in my Instagram stories where people would choose from two famous people as candidates for a new Disney character. It's fun."
Even though Helen has been working on this project for quite some time, she plans to continue it. "As I've said, I have a lot of followers who really like this series. I myself really like to transform real-life stars into these famous characters. It's like a little adventure every time."
"I'm glad that these drawings have attracted the attention of so many people, and I want to say thanks to all of those who supported me and my work. It's very motivating to realize that your work resonates with people."

Elizabeth Olsen As Jane
Emma Stone As Merida
Eva Green As Maleficent
I liked Angelina Jolie's version, but Eva is so great at playing villains. I'd love to see what she could do with the part.
Lady Gaga As Ursula From Little Mermaid
Amanda Seyfried As Rapunzel
Lucy Hale As Mavis Dracula
Megan Fox As Megara
Lucy Liu As Mulan
She can't be the only talented actress with an asian background in Hollywood right? Like Akwafina, Who recently got a golden globe nomination.
No. An awesome actress like her shouldn't have to be in that bombshell.

I think Lucy looks amazing, and would be a great Mulan!! Really good matchup!!
Lucy possesses characteristics of Milan. Intelligent and beautiful while not relying on her beauty. A force to be with.
She is a decent actor no doubt but she should NEVER be typecast as any Chinese character. If you speak Chinese or is rooted in Chinese culture, you'd know how badly she bombed her character in Shanghai Noon. Her playing a Chinese character is second only to John Wayne's Gengis Khan. There are plenty of more fitting actors who can fill the role of Mulan.
She was awesome in kill bill (not sure what nationality was to be presented there, but she was right fit)

She actually did play Snow White in Mirror Mirror. It was a fun movie.
Lili Reinhart As Alice In Wonderland
Emma Stone As Cruella De Vil
Emma Stone already is going to be playing the new Cruella De Ville....
Selena Gomez As Moana
She doesn't have a Hawaiian face. Not trying to be racist, it's just a look
Leigh-Anne Pinnock As Pocahontas
Why not one of the many Native actresses like Irene Bedard or Q'orianka Kilcher?
Camila Cabello As Jasmine
Alyssa Milano As Ariel
Sophie Turner As Ariel
Leo i would like to see you do any better because that is an amazingly drawn face and at a very hard to draw angle
Amber Heard As Alice In Wonderland
I wonder why almost exclusively we see only women portrayed. I would've been curious about male characters too, because there are some, right?
Because that's who the artist chose. They came up with the idea and executed it, and they chose these.

race bending IS NOT okay!! moana is NOT white and neither is Jasmine. please stop
Thanks for Tom Hiddleston, but the rest were rehashes of Disney's rehashed stereotypical female leads.
They sucked us in with the only male character then just got worse and worse

So you want the white girl to play Polynesian, the black girl to play a Native American and the Latino to play Middle Eastern ... yep sounds like Hollywood to me
Selena gomez is Hispanic/Latina but I get your point

My only real issue with these, is the number of 30 or 40 something people they're attempting to show as characters who are in their teens in their stories...
Nice.. But some cultural diversity lije a German actress as snow white or a French one for Belle would have been nice.
Good point. Lea Seydoux for example was great in the French version of Beauty and the Beast, though she doesn't look like the Disney character at all. Audrey Tautou could make a good Disney!Belle.

The characters who are young are put with actors who look too old to play them and the older characters are put with actors too young. I liked most of them though
I like the concept too but it's been done decades over with many of these celebs. Give Lucy Liu a break already.
