Disney's new show "Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After" debuts, humanizing iconic villains like Cruella and Maleficent.

A new musical show at Walt Disney World, "Disney Villains: Unfairly Ever After," debuts on May 27, featuring Cruella de Vil, Captain Hook, and Maleficent as misunderstood characters. The show raises questions about the trend of humanizing villains, which started in the late 1980s and 1990s, aiming for more complex and less black-and-white portrayals. This trend is seen in works like the "Wicked" musical and the film "Cruella." The show challenges traditional perceptions of villains, sparking debate on whether such characters should be humanized or remain purely evil.
