While the majority of these will only ever exist in our sweetest fantasies, they would be awesome to see on the big screen. Welcome to MsMojo and today we’ll be counting down our picks for the Top 10 Disney Movie Crossovers We Want.
For this list, we’re counting Pixar films as Disney, as the company was purchased by Disney back in 2006.
#10: “Brave” / “The Sword in the Stone”
Both of these films take place during Medieval times and in Great Britain, meaning the setting is already there for a potential crossover, and the plot possibilities are endless. Seeing as Merida, the main character of Brave, is a Scottish princess, and Arthur, the main character of The Sword in the Stone, is the King of England, we could have a potential conflict between the two characters that leads to a Braveheart-style rebellion. Or, we could possibly have some kind of romantic comedy that brings the two characters together and unites Scotland and England. Either way, a showdown between the witch from Brave and Merlin is an absolute must.#9: “Zootopia” / “Robin Hood”
Disney’s “Robin Hood” is based on the famous legend with one main difference – the main characters are animals instead of people. The protagonist, Robin Hood himself, is a fox. Which other Disney film has a main character that is a fox? That’s right: Zootopia! Is it possible that Nick Wilde is a descendant of the famous Robin Hood? Perhaps a sequel/crossover will deal with Nick discovering this information and attempting to honor his late ancestor by also stealing from the rich and giving to the poor, while Judy Hopps attempts to hunt him down. While it may be difficult to have the characters cross over because of the time difference, we could potentially see Robin Hood appear in some sort of dream or in even in the stars, Mufasa-style.
#8: “Tangled” / “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs”
The Evil Queen in Snow White is one of the most iconic Disney villains to ever hit the big screen. She also suffers a pretty horrific death - a lightning assisted fall from a cliff. But what if she didn’t die? Who else is completely obsessed with staying young and with their own beauty? Yep: Mother Gothel from Tangled. While there are plenty of theories connecting these two characters, we are more interested in the potential crossover – could this draw Snow White and Rapunzel together as friends? Could the shape-shifting witch return one final time to try to take them both out? There's only one way to know for sure.
#7: “The Little Mermaid” / “Hercules”
In Greek Mythology, the Greek god Poseidon had many children, including one named Triton. Yes, the same Triton who appears in The Little Mermaid as Ariel’s father. That essentially makes Hercules and Ariel cousins. This just screams crossover. Ursula is the kind of villain Hercules would love to take on, while we could potentially see Hades decide to go after Poseidon instead of Zeus by attempting to destroy one of his sons, such as Triton. While we’re less interested in seeing any romantic connection between the two, it would be cool to see what a crossover film could provide seeing as both characters exist in the same world.
#6: “The Jungle Book” / “Tarzan”
One is raised by gorillas, the other by wolves. Which parenting style is more effective? Okay, that may not be the most interesting plot point in a potential crossover, but it would certainly be intriguing to see Tarzan meet Mowgli, considering their similar childhoods. Who wouldn’t want to see Shere Khan go up against a full-grown man rather than a so-called mancub? And would King Louie have the same effect on Kala and Terk as he does on seemingly all the monkeys in the jungle? The best part is – with the later releases of live-action remakes, this film could be either animated or live-action.
#5: “The Aristocats” / “The Great Mouse Detective”
Let’s be honest, leaving your fortune to your cats is a bit insane, and we don’t exactly blame Edgar for trying to dispose of the cats to ensure he receives Madama Adelaide Bonfamille’s money. While he was unsuccessful, it isn’t a stretch to believe that others will attempt the same. And who better to solve a case than Basil, the main character in The Great Mouse Detective? This potential crossover has plenty of natural conflict, both in species between the cats and mice, and in setting, between Paris and London. Seeing Basil having to overcome his distrust of cats to help save the Aristocats would certainly make for an interesting film.
#4: “The Hunchback of Notre Dame” / “Beauty and the Beast”
The male protagonists in these two films are remarkably similar in that they both are feared and shunned for their appearance but they also have hearts of gold. Add in the fact that both films are set in a distant France, and it’s clear to see why a crossover would be successful. Perhaps, upon leaving the cathedral and venturing outside of Paris, Quasimodo comes across Prince Adam and Belle who further help him overcome his insecurities over his appearance. Or, Belle visits Notre Dame and encounters Quasimodo and Esmeralda. Let’s just hope we don’t see some sort of prequel where Gaston and Judge Frollo team up…there’s only so much evil one person can take.
#3: “Lilo & Stitch” / “Moana”
The setting of these two films alone immediately screams crossover. “Lilo & Stitch” is set on the Hawaiian island of Kaua’i, while Moana’s tribe lives on the small Polynesian island of Motunui. Considering Moana spends nearly the entire movie on the sea, however, it is not a stretch to suggest that she may eventually find herself in Hawaii sooner rather than later. Considering their personalities, Moana would likely bond instantly with Lilo and Nani, but we would be more interested in seeing Maui interact with Stitch. A buddy-comedy with these two characters would undoubtedly be absolutely hilarious.
#2: “Frozen” / “Tarzan”
While “Beauty and the Beast” and “Tarzan” could’ve also worked, what with the theory that Belle is actually Jane’s grandmother, “Frozen” and “Tarzan” is far more enticing. There is a fan theory that suggests Elsa and Anna’s parents didn’t die in the shipwreck, but survived, and washed ashore some strange jungle where they had a son – Tarzan. That would make Elsa, Anna and Tarzan all siblings. A potential crossover exploring this connection would certainly be intriguing to say the least. Heck, just finding out if Tarzan would be able to adapt to Arendelle’s climate would be worth the watch.
Before we unveil our number one pick, here are a few honorable mentions:
“Alice in Wonderland” / “Pinocchio”
“Lady and the Tramp” / “Oliver & Company”
“Monsters, Inc.” / “Toy Story”
#1: “Finding Nemo” / “The Little Mermaid”
All the pieces are already in place - this film just needs to be made already. There’s no doubt that Ariel would love Marlin, Nemo and Dory, considering her friendship with Flounder, and the is an ocean of possibilities about the way the plot could go. While seeing Ariel interact with all the different fish and sea creatures present in “Finding Nemo” would be worth the price of admission, we would be more interested in seeing how the characters from “Finding Nemo” handle Ursula, Flotsam and Jetsam. Oh and a showdown with Bruce has to appear at some point. This underwater mash-up is just too good to not happen.
