In a creative and heartwarming twist, an artist has reimagined iconic Disney characters as realistic, everyday dads, and the results are stunning! These re-creations offer a fresh perspective on beloved figures, transforming princes, heroes, and even villains into loving, relatable fathers.
Imagine the Beast from Beauty and the Beast sporting a dad bod while playing catch with his kids, or Hercules as a doting father helping his little ones train for their own heroic adventures. Each character is thoughtfully portrayed in modern settings, with subtle details that bring out their fatherly side—whether it’s Mufasa patiently guiding Simba through fatherhood or Aladdin embracing the role of a playful, hands-on dad.
The artist’s attention to detail, combined with a deep understanding of the characters, makes these transformations both touching and humorous. These Disney dads are depicted not as mythical heroes, but as everyday men navigating the joys and challenges of fatherhood, from diaper duty to family road trips.
Through these stunning creations, the artist adds an extra layer of depth to characters we already love, reminding us that even the most magical characters can be relatable in the most human of ways. It’s a delightful tribute to fatherhood, imagination, and the enduring charm of Disney.

This whole Disney project has lasted eight years and, to be honest, I find it difficult to find the time and inspiration to continue creating more,” confessed the artist. “Having said that, it’s still a fun thing if I find free time. So we’ll have to see when this wave of inspiration for these great drawings hits me again.

When he’s not playing with famous people, Jirka is still busy; he is a freelancer who juggles a lot of work. Professionally, I have always been an art director and graphic designer first, and I consider myself an additional illustrator. But I like all things visual, and one of my biggest interests has a lot to do with fashion and my personal style, which I also share regularly on my social networks.
