Antagonist

Character Role Analysis

Eve Harrington

Usually the character who is named in the title is the hero. Buffy. Thelma and Louise. Robocop. This isn't that kind of movie. Sometimes it's hard to identify an antagonist, because everything's complicated and relative, and morality is just a matter of perspective, right?

Nope. We're good here.

Eve is 100% bad. She's on a mission to ruin Margo's life, to steal her career and her husband. She keeps Margo out of town so that she misses a performance and Eve just happens to be her understudy. She throws herself at Bill, and Margo's jealousy of Eve drives a wedge between them. She's a textbook antagonist—no redeeming qualities.
