The story of Peg Leg Pete since his first appearance in the 1925 animated short film Alice Solves the Puzzles.

Film and Television appearances[]

Steamboat Willie[]

Earlypete(himself)

Pete in Steamboat Willie.

In the first cartoon with sound Steamboat Willie, Pete and Mickey made their first and third appearance. Pete was captain of the steamboat and would never give Mickey a break. From beating Mickey on the head to bashing him into the ground Pete has done anything that he could do to hurt him taking enjoyment with every swing. Back then, Pete was considered more of a jerk and a bully than the villain he is known as today. He was also gross, and a simpleton, laughing at the tobacco he spat out when it hit a bell.

Mickey's Christmas Carol[]

In the 1983 short film Mickey's Christmas Carol, an adaptation of Charles Dickens' novel A Christmas Carol and the 1974 record album Disney's A Christmas Carol, Pete was cast as the 'Ghost of Christmas Future', who reveals himself by removing his hood and lighting a cigar, which also lights up the engraving on Scrooge's grave. Pete only had one line throughout the whole film, which was answering Ebenezer's question: "Who's lonely grave is this?" ("Why yours, Ebenezer. The richest man in the cemetery!") and laughing cruelly while he pushes Scrooge into his grave as he struggles to escape as the gates of the underworld are opening. This is arguably Pete's darkest role to date.

It should be noted that Pete did not portray the ghost in the original Disney's A Christmas Carol album. The Ghost was instead portrayed by the Witch.

DuckTales[]

Pete appeared in the show as Captain Pietro, the right hand of evil twin of Count Roy of Monte Dumas. He was a corrupt official enjoying exploiting people by often collecting taxes.

Pete also appeared as a pirate captain during a time travel. The pirate had a birthday and forced Scrooge, his nephews and Beagle Boys to sing for him on a scene. This time, his catlike appearance was more heavily emphasized.

The Prince and the Pauper[]

Pete's appearance here is considered his darkest role, as there is very little to no humor to his character here, terrorizing the people in the (dying) king's name. In the Disney version of Mark Twain's The Prince and the Pauper, Pete once again played the primary villain, this time as the King of England's captain of the guard. When he saw that his ruler's life was slowly diminishing, he and his henchmen, a band of weasels who act as the king's guards, seized the opportunity to terrorize England's citizens and rob them of their goods in "favor" of the king. After kicking out a disguised Prince, whom he mistook for the peasant boy Mickey Mouse, out of the castle, he later receives word from one of his guards that the Prince was seen a causing a commotion in the village, as the guard claimed that he "acted like a nobleman and he had the royal ring!" Pete suddenly realizes that it was indeed the Prince he "booted out" and seizes another opportunity out this.

That night, after the king passes away, Pete finds the "phony prince" (Mickey), threatening the life of his dog, Pluto, unless Mickey follows his commands. In the village, he soon finds and captures the real Prince and takes him to the castle's dungeon to lock him up. On the day of the Prince's coronation, Pete plots to get Mickey crowned as king, though Mickey is still subservient to Pete's orders. His plan, however, is thwarted when the Prince suddenly appears in the throne room, having busted out of the dungeon and evading the guards with the help of Goofy (Mickey's peasant friend) and Donald Duck (the Prince's valet).

A sudden battle in the throne room (Mickey and the Prince vs. Pete; Goofy and Donald vs. the Weasel Guards) results in Pete's defeat, as Goofy's bumbling antics cause a chandelier to fall on the weasels, bundle them together, and send them rolling towards Pete. Pete, seeing this, tries to flee but is slowed down by his ripped-down pants (courtesy of the Prince's swashbuckling skills) and tripped by both the Prince and Mickey, causing him to get rolled over and caught on the chandelier, which sends him and his men rolling through a stain-glass window and falling out of the castle.

Goof Troop[]

Pete appeared as Goofy's neighbor and the main antagonist in the TV show Goof Troop. He works as a used-car salesman and lives with his family which consists of his wife, Peg, son P.J., daughter Pistol and their dog, Chainsaw. He plays as a mean and very demanding figure who thinks that what he does is better than whatever anyone else does. He also shows a soft side to his neighbors but never has them speak of it. He is also shown to be quite strict and harsh towards P.J. (who fears Pete's wrath and addresses him as sir.) but is kinder to Pistol.

This is the first media in which Pete was voiced by Jim Cummings, his current voice actor.

A Goofy Movie[]

In A Goofy Movie, Pete serves as a supporting character, as he is more friendly with Goofy and often gives him advice on how to raise his son with discipline, telling him that he should keep Max under his thumb. In the film, it is shown that Pete works with Goofy, being a children's photographer. Pete tells Goofy that P.J. asked him to take him camping and comments that camping is the perfect way to make a good father/son relationship and that if a son does not want to be with his parents, the boy could be stealing or with a gang. This makes Goofy believe the aggravate comments of Principal Mazur about Max and he tells Pete that he is going to fish with his son. Pete attempts to finish the photography session with the current child (a little girl) after Goofy excitedly declared that he's taking Max on a fishing trip. However, the child managed to unseat her diaper and run off while Pete was distracted.

Pete is then shown arriving in an RV with P.J. to the forest where Max and Goofy are camping. There, Pete tells Goofy that he must control his son. Pete invites the Goofs to dinner but Goofy goes with Max to practice fishing. This makes emerge the legendary Bigfoot who terrifies Max and Goofy and makes Pete and P.J. drive away.

Pete reappears in a motel where Max and Goofy are staying and is surprised to see Max and Goofy enjoying their time. When Pete overhears a conversation between Max and P.J. about Max changing Goofy's map route to get to Los Angeles, he informs Goofy about it. Although Goofy didn't believe Pete, he looks at the map and sees the change, realizing that Pete was right. However, after a lengthy argument with Max, Goofy decides to take him to Los Angeles. Pete is shown for the last time when Max and Goofy are with Powerline. Pete was drinking a beer but is shocked to see the Goofs on TV, that he accidentally spits the drink on the TV screen, much to his embarrassment.

An Extremely Goofy Movie[]

Pete was given a smaller role in the 2000 sequel. Taking place a few years later, P.J., Bobby, and Max are heading for college, and just like Goofy, Pete is very proud of this moment as he openly plans to turn P.J.'s room into a bowling alley. Later on, after losing his job, Goofy is forced to finish college in order to get employed once more. He attends the same college as Max, making life increasingly complicated for him. Goofy visits Pete for advice on how to make things work, but Goofy gets a brainstorm himself and heads back to college, leaving Pete confused but satisfied.

Mickey’s Once Upon Christmas[]

More or less set before the events of Goof Troop, Pete is Goofy's neighbor, except Pete's family is not seen here. Pete tells Max that there is no Santa Claus, crushing Max's spirit and leaving him to question Santa's existence due to a lack of evidence. Goofy spends the rest of the segment trying to prove Pete wrong. During a nighttime search, Goofy spots a figure leaving Pete's chimney and mistakes it for Santa. It turns out to be a Beagle boy who had just robbed Pete before the police caught him. During the short ending, the real Santa arrives and gives gifts to both Goofy and Max. Pete is present and asks for gifts as well, but is instead assigned a yard full of snow as punishment for his behavior.

Later, Pete appears as the cruel owner of Crazy Pete's Tree Lot and Mickey's employer. During the holidays, Pete tries to sell oversized trees for three times the price of a regular tree. He almost tricks the missing family, but is foiled by plucky Mickey. As punishment, Pete angrily robs Mickey of his tip and kicks him and Pluto off the lot. While collecting the stolen goods, Pete accidentally puts a cigar in his pocket, which, to his dismay, starts a fire that burns down his overpriced trees.

House of Mouse[]

Pete appears in other different episodes of House of Mouse such as Mickey to the Rescue. In House of Mouse, Pete plays a major role as a greedy landlord who is plotting to take over the cartoon club but fails each time he does so.

In the first episode, Pete storms into the club and demands that Mickey and his friends leave the building as he has acquired its contract. Mickey and his friends are saddened by this revelation until Goofy reads the fine print and learns that, as long as they perform a show, Pete can't force them to leave. Angered, Pete storms out and tells them that they can't perform forever. Later, Pete brakes into the projection room ties up Horace Horsecollar and steals all of the House's cartoons. Pete later reenters the projection room after Mickey and Minnie realize what was going on and (despite the fact that he obviously committed the crime) he blows off all allegations pointed towards him and prepares to shut down the club. After Donald fails to run the club while Mickey, Minnie and Goofy film a new cartoon, Pete arrives to taunt him and, even after the three return with a new cartoon, Pete claims that they still won't be able to run the club without an audience, only for the audience to return and trample him when they see that Mickey has returned. After the cartoon is shown, Pete tells Mickey that they won't be able to run a show by just playing the one cartoon they have over and over, however, the cartoons hidden inside his coat then begin to fall out and his theft is exposed to the entire club. Pete tries to hide from Mickey and his friends, but he is eventually caught and is then thrown out of the club by Tantor.

In the episode House Ghosts, Pete begins to plot his revenge on everyone for making fun of his Halloween costume choices. So he plans to release a trio of Hitchhiking Ghosts from The Haunted Mansion to frighten everyone out of the club but his plan failed miserably so the ghosts decided to scare him instead.

Runaway Brain[]

Julius

Julius is a giant hulking Frankenstein-like version of Pete that was created by Doctor Frankenollie. A monster (of fairly low intelligence) who hosts Mickey's brain for a short time. He has been identified by some as Peg Leg Pete because of the physical similarities and the missing leg.

The Three Musketeers[]

In the 2004 direct-to-DVD animated adaptation of The Three Musketeers (starring Mickey, Donald, and Goofy), Pete reappeared as Captain Pete as the main antagonist.

In this movie, Pete is a musketeer captain who secretly plans to kidnap Princess Minnie and take over France as king. To do this, he hires the bumbling Beagle Boys, whose foolish attempts to murder Minnie lead her to demand musketeer bodyguards out of fear. Pete assigns three janitors, Mickey, Donald and Goofy, thinking they will do a terrible job. However, the trio prove to be skilled and force Pete to go to Plan B. Pete orders the Beagle Boys to kidnap Donald and his lieutenant Clarabelle Cow to kidnap Goofy while he goes after Mickey. Donald escapes his captivity while Goofy convinces Clarabelle to reform. Together, Donald and Goofy set out to rescue Mickey. They succeed and head to the Opera House, where Pete manages to take control and lock Minnie in a chest. The trio arrive and a battle ensues. Pete defeats Donald and Goofy and has a one-on-one battle with Mickey. Pete almost murders him, but before he can try, Donald and Goofy return to the battle. The trio defeats Pete, leaving him to collapse while saying "I hate happy endings!" as he falls.

In the cast commentary for the DVD version of the film, Pete is heard talking to Mickey, Donald and Goofy in their debut scene in the film. During the commentary, Pete talks to Mickey and friends in a friendlier manner, showing his softer side. The way they interact suggests that Pete seems to be a friend of the gang.

Mickey Mouse Clubhouse[]

Pete appears in many episodes of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Disney's 3D animated children's series. He retains his role as the antagonist, but is significantly toned down for his pre-school audience – he's less malicious and more mischievous, once causing the Mickey Mouse clubhouse to disappear, for which he later apologizes. Viewers will find that Mickey and the gang are very forgiving of Pete and his escapades. They even admit that Pete is their friend several times in the show. He often appears as a seller of items the gang needs and will give them the item in exchange for beans. He is more polite than his previous incarnations. In one episode, he invites the group to a Halloween party. In the most recent episode, Pete often plays what appears to be the role of the villain, but in the end it turns out that Pete is trying to help. However, in all the specials and spin-offs, Pete plays the main villain, with numerous alter-egos like “Space Pirate Pete” and “Power-Pants Pete”, but he's usually redeemed at the end. Like most of the show's main characters, Pete has a theme that he plays instrumentally every time he appears on screen. Pete also appears in the Mickey Mousekersize spin-off series.

Pete's character has changed significantly. He began the series as a local con artist trying to swindle Mickey and the gang out of their possessions and in early episodes such as "Mickey Goes Fishing", where he schemes Mickey by shorting his time of borrowing the boat for an hour, even he has pay him, and "Donald's Big Balloon Race", where he has cheated during the “Big Balloon Race” by using a fan and a rocket on his balloon. Pete acts like a huge jerkass without reason or provocation. However as the series progressed, Pete quickly became friends with Mickey, whenever he's not playing the designated villain. This kinder version of Pete reappears in the 2017 Mickey Mouse Mixed-Up Adventures series.

Mickey Mouse (2013)[]

Pete returns in this animated series as a recurring antagonist. He has a peg leg again, in addition to a beard, yellow eyes and a tail. Pete did not have a regular outfit in the first three seasons. By the time of the fourth season, he was given his classic one-strap jumpsuit from Steamboat Willie, which appeared in most of his episodes. Like the classic shorts, Pete is typically portrayed as a local criminal who repeatedly troubles Mickey and his friends, as in "Swimmin' Hole", "Touchdown and Out", and "Three-Legged Race". However, sometimes it appears in another profession. For example, his first appearance in the series was in the episode "Tapped Out", in which Pete is an undefeated world champion wrestler. He also appears as a villain in some international short films such as "Al Rojo Vivo" and "Dancevidaniya"; in both cases, he kidnaps Minnie in an attempt to court her.

In "A Pete Scorned", Pete becomes jealous of Mickey's rivalry with Mortimer and falls into a bout of depression. Mickey attempts to lift Pete's spirits by tempting him to antagonize him, but Mortimer steals the opportunity. Mickey berates Mortimer for upsetting Pete, to which Mortimer responds by repeatedly badmouthing Pete while torturing Mickey. Pete comes out of hiding and punches Mortimer into the sky, reconciling with Mickey.

Mickey and the Roadster Racers/Mickey Mouse Mixed Adventures[]

Pete appears as a recurring character in the racing series as the owner of Pete's Junkyard and a tow truck driver in Hot Dog Hills. Pete's roadster is known as the Super Crusher. Like the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, his role varies by episode, as he is usually cast as a friendly acquaintance of Mickey and the others, but can occasionally be an antagonist. Outside of Hot Dog Hills, Pete takes on a variety of personas and professions, such as a bullfighter in Madrid or a British criminal in London. While he will do anything to win the race, his spiteful behavior comes from stubbornness and single-mindedness rather than narcissism. In addition, he has shown himself to be a decent person with standards off the track, and even sometimes on it.

The Wonderful World of Mickey Mouse[]

In this continuation of the 2013s Mickey Mouse series, Pete is a recurring character who still has the same physical appearance, leg and all, as in the earlier series. He retains an antagonistic role from the earlier series, such as in "Cheese Wranglers", in which he and the gang of Weasels try to rustle up Mickey's herd of cheese, and "Keep on Rollin'", in which he, his date Ursula, and the Beagle Boys take over the ice rink and forcibly evict Mickey and friends from the compound.

Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers[]

Pete has a small cameo in Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers. When the titular heroes run through the bootlegging facility, Pete is starring in a bootleg production of Aladdin. Unlike the other toons, Pete himself has not been bootlegged (i.e. altered and reanimated to look different), implying that he is a willing accomplice in the bootlegging scheme.

Video game appearances[]

Kingdom Hearts[]

1200px-Pete KHIII

Pete in Kingdom Hearts.

Your world..... no, ALL the worlds, are gonna belong to yours truly!
~ Pete to Sora, Donald, and Goofy.

Pete is a recurring antagonist in the Kingdom Hearts franchise.

In Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep, Pete concocts a scheme to obtain the Million Dreams Award during the Million Dreams Festival. He poses as a superhero named "Captain Justice", as well as a shadowy racer named Captain Dark. Under these guises, Pete attempts to obtain votes in order to win the Million Dreams Award, crossing paths with Terra, Ventus, and Aqua multiple times. However, the three Keyblade wielders win the award, causing Pete to threaten Queen Minnie to obtain the award by force. Minnie banishes Pete to the Lanes Between, but he is soon freed by Maleficent, who offers to free Pete from his prison in exchange for service and become her right-hand man.

In Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Pete ventures to assemble an army of Heartless for Maleficent, crossing paths with (and battling) Organization XIII members Roxas and Xion. By the time of Kingdom Hearts II, Pete is still assembling Heartless, but when he visits the Mysterious Tower to convert Yen Sid into one, he has his first encounter with Sora, Donald, and Goofy. The trio crosses paths with Pete multiple times throughout their journey, battling him at Olympus Coliseum and Timeless River (and encountering a younger version of Pete in the latter). They also encounter him at Port Royal and the Pride Lands, where he recruits Captain Barbossa and Scar into the Council of Disney Villains and grants them control over Heartless. Pete and Maleficent abandon their lair in Villains' Vale during an attack by Organization XIII and are not seen until the end of the game where they try to seize control of the Castle That Never Was from Xemnas and hold off a swarm of Heartless from the heroes.

In Kingdom Hearts coded, Pete appears alongside Maleficent, plotting to capture the Datascape in order to take over the worlds. He encounters Data-Sora at Olympus Coliseum, helps Jafar in his own scheme in Agrabah, and later reveals just how he and Maleficent got into the Datascape. At Hollow Bastion, Pete battles Data-Sora before corrupting Data-Riku with bugs. Pete later encounters Sora's Heartless but is rescued by Data-Sora and Data-Riku. In an additional scene added to the cutscenes of Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX, Pete learns about the Book of Prophecies from Maleficent, who intends on finding a connection with the Datascape and the Book.

In Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance, Pete and Maleficent break into Disney Castle and hold Queen Minnie hostage for the Datascape. When Mickey and company arrive, Maleficent and Pete explain their intents to acquire the Datascape, but Lea arrives and distracts Pete long enough for Minnie to free herself. Meanwhile, Sora and Riku also encounter a past version of Pete in the Country of the Musketeers, where he schemes to kidnap Princess Minnie and become the king of France.

Both villains return in Kingdom Hearts III in which the duo are searching for a genuine "Book of Prophecies" hidden inside a distinctive black box that the Master of Masters gave to Luxu during the events of Kingdom Hearts X Back Cover. They initally try to get help from Hades in Olympus who at first refuses, but reluctantly tells them the box may be the same box Zeus hid on Earth. They then come across the heroes and Pete notices how Sora isn't as strong as he used to be. Although keen to battle them once more, he and Maleficent leave the heroes be and continue their quest to find the box. As they search for the box, Pete becomes skeptical of its exist but Maleficent assures him that it does exist and the pair start to follow the new Organization as they are after the box as well, coming into contact with Dark Riku in the process. Maleficent then believes that the box doesn't exist in their period of time and that they must wait until the Keyblade War comes to an end in order for the black box to reveal itself. They are then last seen in the Keyblade Graveyard following Master Xehanort's defeat, watching Luxu (who was revealed to be a surviving Xigbar) from afar speaking to four of the five foretellers while holding the black box in question.

Epic Mickey[]

True to form as Mickey Mouse's archenemy Pete is back and ready for action in the video-game Epic Mickey - where he is already back to his evil ways and causing trouble for Mickey.

If he doesn't or trade it to Shaky, he'll battle a Blotling Horde with Seers, Spatters, and Sweepers. In the good ending, Small Pete starts to rebuild World of Gremlins, and you'll get this if you got the log.
