Who is Emperor Kuzco?
Emperor Kuzco is the main character of Disney’s animated film The Emperor’s New Groove, which was released in 2000.
Kuzco is the young, self-centered ruler of an Incan-like empire who cares deeply about his lavish lifestyle and is quick to dismiss the needs and well-being of his subjects. His journey begins with plans to build a lavish summer palace on a hill, heedless of the impact it will have on a local villager named Pacha and his family.
However, Kuzco’s life takes a drastic turn when his power-hungry advisor, Yzma, plots to overthrow him with the help of her bumbling assistant, Kronk. Instead of killing Kuzco, Yzma’s plan backfires, and he’s transformed into a llama. Stranded and without his royal privileges, Kuzco is forced to navigate the world in a much humbler form. His only hope lies in an unlikely partnership with Pacha, who agrees to help Kuzco return to his human form in exchange for the promise of leaving his village untouched.
The voice of Kuzco is brought to life by actor David Spade, who adds his trademark humor and sarcasm to the character, making Kuzco one of Disney’s most memorable antiheroes. Spade’s comedic timing and distinct voice infuse the character with a unique blend of arrogance, wit, and charm that endears him to audiences despite his many flaws.
