Violet Parr
Violet Parr is a fictional character who appears in Pixar's animated superhero film "The Incredibles" (2004) and its sequel "Incredibles 2" (2018). The eldest child of Bob and Helen Parr (Mr. Incredible and Elastigirl), Violet is born with the superhuman ability to render herself invisible, as well as generate force fields. Voiced by Sarah Vowell, Violet is a shy junior high school student who longs to fit in among her peers, a task she believes is hindered by her superpowers. Throughout the course of the films, Violet gradually matures and becomes more confident in herself as both a young woman and superhero.

In "Incredibles 2", female characters contribute a more central role to the plot, with Todd McCarthy of "The Hollywood Reporter" observing that Violet has begun "to spread her wings". However, she remains an awkward teenage girl "with the power to make herself invisible (although not, sadly, to make the boy she has a crush on really see her)", according to "Slate"'s Sam Adams, with the film exploring her "adolescent, boy-crazed sanity" and first broken heart, to which she reacts by consuming ice cream and throwing her clothes. At times, Violet can be so concerned with her own struggles that she fails to notice some of the situations that are affecting the rest of her family, although she maintains the importance of family. Vowell observed that Violet's temper is explored much further in "Incredibles 2", in which she cries and yells out of annoyance and passion, summarizing the character as "a hormonal teenager." The actress believes that her character "can be hilarious" at times, "but her humor has some bite to it ... She has a tendency to comment a little too truthfully about any given scenario ... For better or worse, if she thinks it, she says it", describing Violet as incapable of "edit[ing] uncomfortable thoughts." According to Syfy Wire's Heather Mason, Violet's role in the sequel is to "break the tension and bring the superheroes back to reality" by "say[ing] what they are all thinking."
