Last Updated on: March 26th, 2024
Who is Arthur?
Arthur, also known as Wart, is the main character in Disney’s 1963 animated film The Sword in the Stone, based on T.H. White’s novel of the same name. He is a young orphaned boy who is unaware of his royal lineage and destiny to become King Arthur, the legendary ruler of England.
In the film, Wart serves as the squire to Sir Kay, and his life changes when he encounters the wizard Merlin. Merlin becomes his mentor, teaching him valuable lessons about wisdom, strength, and leadership through magical transformations and adventures.
Throughout the story, Wart faces various challenges that shape him into a humble, brave, and kind-hearted young man, ultimately pulling the magical sword Excalibur from the stone and claiming his rightful place as king.
In The Sword in the Stone, Arthur/Wart was voiced by three different actors: Rickie Sorensen initially, and later, the brothers Richard Reitherman and Robert Reitherman took over due to Sorensen’s voice changing during production.
