In Disney’s The Emperor’s New Groove, Eartha Kitt voices Yzma, the scheming former royal adviser whose plot to overthrow Emperor Kuzco goes awry. One memorable turn comes when Yzma is transformed into a cat, adding another comic twist to her rivalry with Kuzco and her assistant, Kronk. Kitt’s distinctive delivery and the animation’s expressive timing helped make the character a fan favorite. Online posts have revisited the transformation, though the claim that filmmakers kept it secret from Kitt is not established in the sources reviewed.
