50+ Disney Characters that Are Based on Real People

Wreck-it Ralf was a huge success back in 2012 earning up to $471 million at the box office worldwide. Not to mention its sequel in 2018 did pretty well too. The film’s success must be in part to its hilarious lead character played by comedian/actor John C. Reilly.

Ralf didn’t just get his humor from Reilly, thanks to animators, he also got his messy hair, quirky smiles, and high-rise eyebrows. John C. Reilly nearly turned down the role as he didn’t want to do an animated film, we are so lucky he changed his mind.
