50+ Disney Characters that Are Based on Real People

Flynn Rider, from Disney’s Rapunzel remake called Tangled, was a reimagined version of the prince from the Brothers Grim fairy tale who as we all know ends up falling in love with Rapunzel. He was voiced by actor Zachary Levi and not only did he provide the voice, but he also provided the looks too.

Flynn looks so much like Levi. You can tell the animators paid special attention to Levi’s natural facial expressions as he recited certain lines. There is a certain cheekiness that the character Flynn Rider exudes that most certainly must have come from Levi.
