Anastasia Tremaine

Anastasia Tremaine is a fictional villain in the Cinderella movies created by Walt Disney.

Anastasia meets Cinderella when her mother Lady Tremaine married the latter's father. At first, she is as nasty towards her as her younger sister, Drizella; ordering her stepsister around, whilst she and Drizella never worked and pranced around in their beautiful dresses. Before the ball, she and Drizella shredded Cinderella's dress and left her in shreds whilst they pranced off to the ball, watched over by their mother. To the family's horror, Cinderella produced the second slipper (after Lady Tremaine deliberately tripped the footman with the slipper, breaking it) and Cinderella married Prince Charming.

In the later movies, Anastasia was proven to be less wicked than Drizella and her mother, and somewhat sympathetic to Cinderella. Case in point was she fell in love with a baker who loved her just for being herself; and not what Lady Tremaine and Drizella wanted her to be. This caused Anastasia to go against her mother for the first time, and she gained an ally in Cinderella, who clearly approved of her stepsister's budding romance.

In the third sequel, Anastasia finds the Fairy Godmother's wand, and gives it to Lady Tremaine, who tries to make Prince Charming forget he ever married Cinderella. The prince didn't want to marry Anastasia (and Anastasia herself didn't want to marry him, even when she was turned into a clone of Cinderella) and after Cinderella refreshed his memory by her touch, she and Anastasia did their best to thwart Lady Tremaine's and Drizella's scheme. The prince saved both when he blocked the magic spell Lady Tremaine threw to turn Cinderella and Anastasia into toads and reflected it back at the former, turning her and Drizella into toads. The spell was reversed, and Lady Tremaine and Drizella were made into household servants, what Cinderella herself had been at one time.
