Disney Princesses Reimagined as Star Wars Characters

Other familiar Disney faces are also seen in artist Isaiah Stephen's illustrations

The Force is strong with these Disney heroines!

When Disney bought Star Wars' production company Lucasfilm in 2012 for a bajillion dollars (OK, $4.05 billion if you want to get specific), many fans immediately stated the obvious, significant after-effect: Princess Leia is now a Disney princess.

One artist, Isaiah Stephens follow him on Facebook and Instagram) has taken the synergy a step further: He has reimagined other Disney princesses, as well as several more familiar faces from the animated films, as Star Wars characters.

We always knew Beauty and the Beast's Belle was pretty fearless, but check her out above as Han Solo. No, really.

Pictured at her side, The Beast, reimagined as—who else?—Chewbacca.

Others featured among Stephens' designs include:

Pocahontas, Mulan, Princess Tiana, and Princess Aurora as Stormtroopers (not pictured: Their industrial-strength hairdryer):

...and Sleeping Beauty's Maleficent and Snow White's Evil Queen as Darth Vader and the Emperor:

Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the seventh film in the series and the start of a new trilogy, is set to be released officially on Friday.
