Who is Captain Phoebus?

Captain Phoebus is a character in Disney’s animated film The Hunchback of Notre Dame, based on Victor Hugo’s novel.

Phoebus is a gallant and charming soldier who serves under Judge Claude Frollo, the film’s antagonist. However, unlike Frollo, Phoebus is kind-hearted and morally grounded, valuing justice and compassion over Frollo’s harsh methods. He quickly becomes disillusioned with Frollo’s oppressive actions, particularly his brutal treatment of Paris’s Romani population, and eventually rebels against his orders.

Phoebus develops a strong bond with Esmeralda, the film’s courageous Romani heroine, and their relationship blossoms into a romance. He becomes a pivotal ally to both Esmeralda and Quasimodo, the film’s main protagonist, helping them fight against Frollo’s tyranny and ultimately standing for what is right.

In the animated movie, Captain Phoebus is voiced by Kevin Kline, who brings warmth, wit, and depth to the character, making Phoebus a memorable and heroic figure in Disney’s adaptation.
