The Looking Glass Wars Fancast ♥ Famke Janssen as Redd Heart

          Redd entered the palace for the first time since she was a girl—the palace in which she‘d been born and spent most of her young life, her palace—and all the hurt and resentment she‘d tried to keep in check for so many years started to boil over. With every step she took toward her sister, she grew angrier and angrier. So what if she‘d been a "bad girl"? So what if she‘d experimented with artificial crystal and imagination stimulants? So what if she‘d never cared for justice, love, duty to the people, blah blah blah? ...           Seething with anger, Redd strode toward the South Dining Room, paying no attention to the explosions going off to the left and right of her, the palace guardsmen falling dead at the hands of her soldiers. An orb generator detonated directly in front of her but, without slowing her pace, she walked through the smoke and flames. She stood in the ruins, face-to-face with her sister at last, and screamed her head off.           She would kill them all.

There are any number of iterations of the Red Queen and the Queen of Hearts that originated from Lewis Carroll’s Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass—some of them amazing, some of them comical, some of them horrifying—yet my favorite is Rose “Redd” Heart from Frank Beddor’s The Looking Glass Wars trilogy.

The reason? She’s about as villainous as she can get with actually interesting reasons as to why she’s a villain.

Mind, Redd’s motivations are still of the “Nice story; still murder.” variety, but the reasons do make sense as the impetus for Rose Heart’s, Heir Apparent to the Wonderland Queendom, spiraling descent into Redd, Her Imperial Viciousness.

Because Redd—once upon a time when she was still Rose—had been a little girl with parents who wanted her to be a person that she could never be.
