Cinderella is the main character from Walt Disney's 1950 film 'Cinderella.' The castle at the Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World is named after her: you know you are popular when you have a castle named after you! She can be found in films such as 'Cinderella 2: Dreams Come True,' 'Cinderella 3: A Twist in Time,' 'Mickey' House of Villains,' and 'Mickey's Magical Christmas: Snowed in at the House of Mouse.' She can also be seen in the TV show 'House of Mouse,' along with video games such as 'Kingdom Hearts,' 'Disney Universe,' 'Disney Princess,' 'Disney Princess: Enchanted Journey,' 'Disney Princess Enchanting Storybooks,' 'Cinderella: Magical Dreams,' and 'Kinect Disneyland Adventures.' Finally she can be found in various other merchandise such as books, costumes, clothing, and toys.

She lived in a chateau most of her life until she married Prince Charming. Her allies include her Fairy Godmother, Gus, Jaq, Major, Bruno, her husband Prince Charming, The King, and all of the other animals she befriends while living in the Chateau. Her biggest enemy is Lady Tremaine who is her stepmother, also Drizella, Lucifer, and Anastasia who turns good in Cinderella 3: A Twist in Time.

*Quick Note: For those who haven't seen Cinderella 3: A Twist in Time, I highly recommend checking it out. I thought it was a fantastic film, in my opinion Disney usually bombs on most animated sequels but they knocked this one out of the park.

Cinderella goes through many different outfits throughout her many different appearances. Her most common outfit for when she lived at the Chateau was a brown dress, black shoes, a blue undershirt, a white apron, and a white head band for her hair. After meeting her Fairy Godmother she ends up in her more noticeable outfit: a beautiful blue gown, with a blue head band, blue earrings, blue gloves, a dark blue necklace, and amazing glass slippers. 

She was animated by Mark David, and Eric Larson. She has been voiced by three people with the first being the amazing Ilene Woods, then Jennifer Hale, and Kath Soucie.

*FUN FACT: Need a break while walking around the Magic Kingdom? Be sure to stop by Cinderella's wishing well and make a wish. All of the money dropped into the well go to different children's charities. Many people overlook this wonderful spot at the Magic Kingdom in Walt Disney World.

Cinderella can be found in Disney parks all over the world. She can be found in Cinderella Castle Mystery Tour at Tokyo Disneyland, World of Color at Disney California Adventure, Cinderella's Royal Table and Prince Charming Regal Carrousel at Walt Disney World, Castle Carrousel at Tokyo Disneyland, Cinderella Carousel at Hong Kong Disneyland, Main Street Electrical Parade at Walt Disney World, Dream Along With Mickey castle show at Walt Disney World, Fanstamic at Walt Disney World, Disneyland, and Tokyo DisneySea. Finally she can be found as a meet and greet character in many locations throughout all the Disney theme parks.
