Principe Filippo

The Prince

Prince Phillip is the deuteragonist of Disney's 1959 animated feature film Sleeping Beauty. He is King Hubert's dashing and wisecracking son, who was betrothed to Princess Aurora, the daughter of Hubert’s old friend, King Stefan, as a means of uniting their kingdoms. The alliance becomes endangered when Phillip falls in love with a "peasant girl" whom he meets in the forest, unaware that she is actually Aurora, but upon discovering that she is actually the same peasant woman he met in the woods, Phillip willingly risks everything he can to save her, their respective parents, and the rest of the kingdom residents from the evil fairy Maleficent. Phillip is based on the prince from the 1697 fairy tale La Belle au bois dormant by Charles Perrault.
