The Lightfoots

The Lightfoots are a family of elves who live in New Mushroomton, a suburban fantasy world where magic has been forgotten. They are the main characters of the 2020 Disney•Pixar animated feature film, Onward.
==Background==
The Lightfoots are a close-knit family who love and support each other, despite their differences and challenges. They learn to appreciate the magic in their lives and cherish the memories of their father. They are also adventurous and courageous, as they face various dangers and obstacles during their quest, such as a motorcycle gang of pixies called the Pixie Dusters, a cursed dragon, and a police officer named Colt Bronco who is Laurel's boyfriend. They are inspired by the personal experiences of the film's director, Dan Scanlon, who lost his father at a young age and had a brother who helped him grow up.
==Members==
The family consists of:
*Laurel Lightfoot: The mother of Ian and Barley, and the widow of Wilden. She is a loving and supportive parent who wants her sons to be happy and confident. She is also brave and adventurous, as she teams up with a manticore named Corey to find and protect her sons during their quest. Julia Louis-Dreyfus voices her.
*Wilden Lightfoot: The father of Ian and Barley, and the husband of Laurel. He died of an illness before Ian was born, leaving behind a Wizard Staff and a spell that could bring him back for one day. He was a kind and caring man who loved his family and had a passion for magic. He is voiced by Kyle Bornheimer.
*Ian Lightfoot: The younger son of Laurel and Wilden, and the brother of Barley. He is a shy and awkward 16-year-old elf who yearns for his father’s guidance. He discovers that he has a natural talent for magic and embarks on a quest with Barley to bring back their dad using the staff and the spell. He is voiced by Tom Holland.
*Barley Lightfoot: The older son of Laurel and Wilden, and the brother of Ian. He is a boisterous and eccentric 19-year-old elf who is obsessed with fantasy role-playing games and ancient history. He is Ian's mentor and protector and helps him learn how to use magic and embrace his adventurous spirit. He is voiced by Chris Pratt.
*Blazey: The pet dragon of the Lightfoots. She is a small and cute creature who acts like a dog. She is loyal and affectionate to her family and can breathe fire when excited or angry.
==Trivia==
