Disney movies have always been popular because they take us to amazing places with characters we love. We get to see princesses go on adventures and toys come to life and talk.

But what if some of these characters were real people? It might sound crazy, but it's true!

For example, you might think Ursula from "The Little Mermaid" only exists in the movie. But it turns out there's a judge in Ukraine who looks just like her! It's pretty wild to think about a real-life Ursula making decisions in court.

And remember Mr. Potato Head from "Toy Story"? Well, he's Steve Harvey in real life! They look so much alike that you might wonder if Steve can swap his features like Mr. Potato Head can.

Even Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde from "Zootopia" have real-life counterparts. While they're great partners on screen, it seems like they might not get along so well off-screen. It's like their friendship is only for the cameras.

When you see these real people who look like Disney characters, it makes you realize how much Disney has influenced our world. It's cool to think about how imagination and creativity can bring characters to life, blurring the line between what's real and what's not.
