| “ | Let's not be too hasty, my simple-minded friend. It's not enough that we simply destroy Aladdin. After all.... there are things so much worse than death!! (maniacal laughter) | „ |
| ~ Jafar, after learning that Abis Mal wants to have revenge on Aladdin as well and warning him not to underestimate Aladdin's intelligence. |
Jafar is the main antagonist of Disney's Aladdin franchise.
He was once the Royal Vizier of Agrabah, who presented himself as the Sultan's most trusted and loyal advisor, but was in fact a power-hungry sorcerer who desired to gain possession of a magical lamp and its all-powerful Genie in order to become the new sultan of Agrabah. He serves as the arch-nemesis of the titular character, Iago's former boss and owner, and the former partner of Gazeem and Abis Mal.
For all of his appearances, he was voiced by Jonathan Freeman, who also voiced Paimon and Cash Buckzo in Helluva Boss.
Appearance[]
Jafar is a tall, slender man dressed in extravagant clothing, always seen carrying a gold, ruby-eyed, cobra-headed staff to supplement his magical powers. Jafar has a twisted black goatee and a faint mustache, as well as gray eyeliner. He is supposed to be designed as ugly, and Genie makes this obvious when he refers to him as "a tall, dark, sinister, ugly man". Apparently, he is completely bald, as evidenced by when he removes his beggar disguise, acting as the only time Jafar did not wear his distinctive headdress, although it was never made clear whether he is naturally bald or if he shaved his head for the disguise. He also carries a cobra-head staff, which he uses for his sorcery. Jafar was animated by Andreas Deja, who also used the character Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty and the voice actor Jonathan Freeman as the basis for Jafar's design.
As the Royal Vizier, Jafar wears a black robe that reaches the ground over top a red garment with bell sleeves. Underneath this second garment, Jafar wears yet another shirt, this one black with very close-fitting sleeves that reach his wrists. The shoulders of his outer robe are pointed and connect to a long, billowing black cape with a red interior. His slippers are copper and the tips curl inward. A maroon sash is tied around his waist. He also wears an odd peach garment that covers his neck, the back of his head, and his chest. He sports a distinctive black headdress, seemingly a type of mitre, with a thin yellow pattern wrapping around the middle, what seems to be a ruby set in the front, and a red feather placed just above it. The headdress itself is apparently made out of metal, as evidenced by the hollow sound it made when Iago briefly knocked on it while trying to get Jafar to calm down from a laughing fit due to thinking he went insane (not realizing he was actually laughing because he realized that not only did the lamp actually survive, it is actually in close proximity due to Prince Ali (or rather, Aladdin) owning it). More maroon cloth hangs from the mitre, draping over Jafar's shoulders.
After wishing to become the Sultan, Jafar's body attire becomes white, and his usual headdress is replaced by the Sultan's, except the top plume becomes red rather than blue. Then after wishing to become a sorcerer, Jafar's wardrobe goes to a more exaggerated form of his original attire, with a headdress sporting horn-like protrusions. It does not have a red feather on it as it is used to, only conserves the ruby on the front. The shoulders of his outer robe are even pointer and maintain a higher position than before. His maroon sash on his waist gains yellow stripes. Here, he regains his iconic snake staff, but notably with an open fanged mouth that fires beams of magic on command.
During his fight with Aladdin, Jafar transforms himself into a gigantic, monstrous, kaiju-sized cobra. His cobra form has blood-red eyes with black slits, a yellow underbelly and a black back. He has a hood like any cobra would, with a dark-red underside with two red dots on each side.
Once Jafar makes his third wish to become an all-powerful genie, he takes on a form resembling Genie himself, with some differences. Jafar's skin becomes red, his ears become pointed, his right ear gains a gold piercing (which changes from dangling to a loop in the second film), his hair becomes tied in a topknot, and his eyes become completely yellow (although there are instances where Jafar gains pupils, such as in "You're Only Second Rate"). He displays a muscular physique as well as five-fingered hands with black claws (compared to Genie, who has four-fingers) with black sharp claws, and is mostly seen with a red wisp instead of legs (during the same song as before, he is shown with muscular legs and feet bearing the same black claws and the red-violet sash on his waist that is shown in his genie smoke form is revealed to be the top of a loincloth (in comparison to Genie's trousers and turned up shoes) which is the only article of clothing that he wears in this form). When he is in his normal human form, Jafar wears a slight recolor of his sorcerer outfit, with red more prominent than before. Interestingly, his sash on his waist is seen black instead of being red. He retains his snake staff. When he guest appeared in an episode of Hercules, he regains his regular sorcerer outfit.
Personality[]
| “ | You're speechless, I see. A fine quality in a wife. | „ |
| ~ Jafar to Jasmine. |
Jafar is portrayed as a immoral, cunning, perfidious and ruthless sorcerer who will not hesitate to eliminate anybody that he perceives as a threat to his own sinister designs. Like numerous clinically diagnosed psychopaths, Jafar wears a metaphorical mask of normalcy throughout the film, establishing himself as a calm schemer and gaining the trust of those around him, despite his rather untrustworthy and treacherous behavior, as he was unsympathetic and cruel towards his fellow conspirators or henchmen, especially Gazeem or Iago on occasion. Even with this mask, Jafar's psychopathic tendencies tend to seep through and become apparent to the viewer. He is also proven to be quite sadistic and merciless, as he enjoys putting people in suffering, such as demoting Jasmine and her father as servants after claiming as the new Sultan, and attempts to have Aladdin crucified so many times with plenty of laughs. Though, this all ended up in failure.
In addition, in The Return of Jafar, Jafar was not outside of using loopholes to bypass the ban on Genies killing people via having Abis Mal arrange Aladdin's crucify for him or using the environment to have death becomes an oppressive inevitability during the final battle, and was proven to not mind the Genies can’t kill rule because "you'd be surprised at what you can live through", implying he could torment people to the fullest extent without slaughtering them. He is also proven to be quite narcissistic and egotistical, due to his desire for power and his manipulations towards the Sultan. It is not until Jafar gains control of the Genie's lamp that he fully shows his true colors, becoming very prideful, traitorous, manipulative and ill-tempered with his subjects after usurping power from the Sultan. However, it is this power-hungry behavior that leads to Jafar's downfall, as Aladdin tricks him into using his third wish to become an omnipotent and transcendental genie, unaware of the life inside the lamp that he has to endure now.
Despite his psychopathic and deranged behavior, Jafar has a somewhat entertaining and comical edge that helps to add some humanity to his character, for example proclaiming "Eww..." when contemplating decapitation, an unusual trait in a Disney villain. He is also very scathing and censorious, as he criticizes Aladdin for choosing to deceive Jasmine into thinking he was a prince instead of being honest with her, as he believed Jasmine would never give him the time of day if she knew who he truly was. In the face of his villainy, Jafar was friendly and decent to Iago as the two of them seemed to have a genuine friendship as Jafar treated Iago as a partner in crime rather than an incompetent minion and he didn’t double-cross Iago after he become Sultan. Jafar was also ready to forgive Iago in the sequel despite Iago leaving Jafar trapped in the lamp.
He is also very close to his twin sister Nasira and relishes on her plot to revive him, so that they can rule the world together, even warning her to be cautious of Aladdin's rational thinking and the Genie's power. In the episode "The Citadel", it was told Jafar feared a ruthless sorcerer named Destane, who was the former King of the Black Sand and master of Mozenrath; Iago explained Destane proved to be far more dangerous, that even Jafar decided to stay away from him to avoid invoking Destane's wrath. Furthermore, Jafar has a sense of humor himself, spurting several puns in a row while keeping Aladdin and his friends from getting the lamp during the film's climax ("Your time is up.", "Don't toy with me.", "Things are unraveling fast now, boy.", "Get the point?", "I'm just getting warmed up."), as pointed out by Hades in "Hercules and the Arabian Night". This sense of humor doesn’t carry over in the sequel at all, which aimed to make Jafar darker than usual.
Jafar's Lamp
He is also shown to be somewhat abusive and cantankerous towards his minions, as evidenced by his interactions with Iago and, later, Abis Mal. Ultimately, this proves to be his final downfall, as Iago ends up turning against him twice by eliminating Jafar's magic lamp, resulting in his demise. This abuse heavily carries over to other characters in the film, especially during the climax as, following his hostile rise to power, Jafar quickly used his newfound abilities to ruthlessly torment Jasmine, the Sultan, Aladdin, and the Genie via physical abuse, humiliation, slavery, and other forms of sadistic torture, which he openly showed amusement in right away.
Like some villainous characters from other franchises, Jafar is attracted to a beautiful teenage girl who is a protagonist. Here, he is attracted to Princess Jasmine, but primarily for her good-looking body, and not for Jasmine herself as a person. His final wish was for Jasmine to fall desperately in love with him so he could make her his queen in the first place (he and Iago planned on slaughtering her as soon as he became Sultan for the first time, but at some time later he declined to slaughter her, instead sparing her life); he creates a golden crown for her from her shackles to do so with a wave of his hand at first, saying a girl as beautiful as her "should be on the arm of the most powerful man in the world". Much earlier, though, he says in what we would consider being a sexist manner that Jasmine's speechlessness is a "fine quality in a wife".
Powers and Abilities[]
Jafar's Snake Staff
| “ | You little fool. You thought you could defeat the most powerful being on Earth?! | „ |
| ~ Jafar to Aladdin. |
Jafar is unique among Disney villains in that he initially starts off as being relatively normal (i.e., non-magical, his staff's hypnosis capabilities aside), yet eventually gains genuine magical powers late into the film, as most Disney Villains before him either lacked magic from their various appearances (i.e., Gaston, Percival McLeach, or Madame Medusa), or otherwise were magical from the start (i.e., Ursula, The Evil Queen, or Maleficent).
- Alchemy: At the start of Aladdin, despite having extensive knowledge of arcane lore, Jafar did not seem to possess any genuine magical powers and thus could have been no more than an alchemist. The closest he had ever come to using actual magic prior to becoming a sorcerer was with his Snake staff's hypnotic properties. In the demo for "Arabian Nights", however, he was mentioned to be a part-time magician as well as a seer, although he was specified to be an amateur in the latter job.
- Master of Disguise: Jafar was surprisingly effective at disguising himself when he was a regular human, as evidenced by his posing as an old prisoner to recruit Aladdin into retrieving the magic lamp from the Cave of Wonders. This disguise would reappear during "Hercules and the Arabian Night", where he posed as a beggar to trick Hercules into fighting Aladdin.
- Sorcery: After wishing to become the most powerful sorcerer in the world, Jafar received a new staff that granted him more power than any other magic-using human in existence. He could levitate objects, breathe fire, summon objects, and transform himself and others. In addition, he also was immune to the effects of fire, as evidenced by his passing through the flames generated by him unharmed immediately before transforming himself into a giant cobra. However, as noted by Aladdin, his power was still nothing compared to a genie's.
- Phenomenal Cosmic Power: After making his final wish to become an all-powerful genie, Jafar became a being capable of commanding not only the world but the universe as a whole. However, in the same way as Genie, he was still bound by the rules of being a genie, meaning that he was unable to physically kill anyone, make people fall in love with each other or bring people back from the dead. He also was unable to travel outside the close proximity of his lamp. Plus, if anything destructive happened to his lamp, he would perish along with it, unless he was wished free from it. Despite this, some of his abilities as a genie—demonstrated in both his human and genie forms—were reality manipulation, teleportation of either himself or anyone and anything else, breathing underwater, superhuman strength, terrakinesis, summoning lightning bolts, superhuman endurance, shape-shifting, telekinesis, size-alteration, object conjuring, projecting fire, creating water tornadoes, and various usages of energy beams that were powerful enough to stun various opponents, in addition to the abilities he previously demonstrated in the first movie. However, after he was killed and later revived by Hades as a spirit in an episode of the Hercules animated series, Jafar no longer has his genie powers, but remains as a powerful sorcerer, and also demonstrated the ability to generate monsters, and was nigh-immortal so long as he had his staff.
- Intelligence: For the most part, Jafar is shown to be quite intelligent. He can manipulate and think of his wicked plans and he can psychologically and/or emotionally manipulate people, especially Aladdin and his friends. However, due to himself being blinded by his lust for power or selfishness, he doesn’t always think things thoroughly, as shown when he noticed too late that he was tricked by Aladdin into becoming a genie or when he decided to protect his lamp by creating a pool of lava that his lamp could be easily destroyed. This further shows that he was not protecting his lamp with caution when battling the heroes.

„ |
| ~ Jafar and Iago stealing Cinderella's Fairy Godmother's song "Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo!". |
| “ | Read my lips and come to grips with the reality! | „ |
| ~ Jafar's article stubs quote; telling the editor to have the written article expanded |
Trivia[]
- He is ranked #2 in the Top 30 Disney Villains, second only to Maleficent.
- In the House of Mouse episode "House of Magic", Jafar and Iago use the famous magic spell Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo to return the House of Mouse after Daisy Duck magically causes it to vanish, and were tricked by Mickey to receive "Agrabah" as a reward for their good deeds.
- Jafar also appeared in the 2001 direct-to-video film Mickey's Magical Christmas: Snowed in at the House of Mouse as one of the Disney Villains who celebrate Christmas and is even shown in the music song "The Best Christmas of All" as one of its notable singers, singing it with his fellow villains alongside with many Disney heroes. Also, Jafar and Iago (as well as his enemies Genie, Carpet, Abu, and all of the Disney characters in the House of Mouse) are all insulted when Donald Duck refuses to change his bad mood towards Christmas.
- On February 26, 2014, when Aladdin was turned into a Broadway musical, Jonathan Freeman had voiced Jafar in his every appearance, so he returned to play the character onstage; he is the only Disney voice actor with this honor.
- Patrick Stewart was originally going to voice Jafar, but scheduling conflicts with Star Trek: The Next Generation forced him to turn it down.
- In the deleted song, "Why Me" from the original as well as the restored version of the scene in the Broadway musical imply that Jafar was bullied and considered a street rat.
- Jafar is so far the only Disney villain to die in his second film. However, Governor Ratcliffe could have also been executed offscreen due to his treason in Pocahontas II: Journey to a New World and Captain Hook (along with the other pirates) could have been devoured by the Octopus off screen at the end of Return to Never Land.
- He is the icon of the article stubs template. His line telling the editor to improve the article is in reference telling Aladdin to “read his lips and come to grips with reality” during the reprise of the Prince Ali song.
- He is one of the few Disney villains to return for the sequel, along with Governor Ratcliffe, Captain Hook, Shere Khan, Kaa, Lady Tremaine, and Cruella De Vil.
- Jafar acts as a foil to Aladdin. Both men have the shared desire of living in a very luxurious life within the Palace of Agrabah, to which a factor for that is the shared goal of being with Princess Jasmine. However, while Aladdin just wanted to live in a more satisfactory life as a former peasant himself, Jafar's actual aim is immense power. Additionally, Aladdin thinks about others even while he's pursuing his overall goal, including Jasmine, the Genie and the Sultan, whereas Jafar has limited regard for anyone else, not even his former pet and sidekick Iago, but himself. Had Aladdin focused too much solely on his personal goals and didn't consider the lives of others, he would've ended up like Jafar.
