Paul Heyman

The whole concept of ECW was that the biggest star of the promotion was the promotion itself. It didn't matter if a persona was designed to elicit cheers or boos. It didn't matter if someone was an antagonist or protagonist. The whole concept was to fight for the honor of the cause. The cause was ECW itself.

The way I wanted to write it, is with a hero, or sort of a pure character who was the protagonist. And the antagonists were these demonic evil children, cause when you're a kid, seven or eight years old, and you're looking at the world around you - everything seems black or white, good or bad.

I don't understand when people say character actors. You either have the protagonist or the antagonist and I've played both. It's an actor's role to play a character. Does that mean that main stream heroes and heroines are characterless?

Indian Actor

Paul Haggis

I'm a filmmaker, and I was most influenced by Hitchcock's films. How he could plant such deep enriched characters and then make us care both about the antagonist and protagonist was masterful.

Canadian Director

Rana Daggubati

Each character, be it the antagonist or the protagonist, brings with himself his own personality... and I have tried to stay true to each one of them; each is enjoyable in their own way!

Richard Brinsley Sheridan

Remember that when you meet your antagonist, to do everything in a mild agreeable manner. Let your courage be keen, but, at the same time, as polished as your sword.

Irish Playwright

James Comey

People view the police not as allies, but as antagonists, and think of them not with respect or gratitude, but with suspicion and distrust.

Indian mythology and its characters have always fascinated me and I find the antagonists especially very interesting.

Edmund Burke

He that struggles with us strengthens our nerves, and sharpens our skill. Our antagonist is our helper.

Irish Statesman

Bryan Konietzko

We want our villains and antagonists to have distinct motivations.

American Director

Antagonists create tension by challenging the hero's goals.

Story Conflicts

Antagonists are not always villains; they might just have conflicting interests.

Not Always Evil

Antagonists reflect cultural beliefs about right and wrong, which can vary.

Cultural Awareness

In real life, an antagonist may resist the purposes or actions of others.

Real-life Opposition

Abstract concepts like 'fate' or 'society' can be antagonists in real life.

Non-personified Conflict

In medicine, 'antagonist' refers to chemicals, not people.

Medicinal Context

Medical antagonists are often designed to target specific receptors in the body.

Target Specificity

 trips are impacting the animals we don't we don't catch um antagonists in areas that don't have threats so it's only the heroes that are massively developed heavily trafficked and causing serious impact to their species otherwise i guess you would have no real reason to track them um
