Queen Tara is the overarching protagonist of Blue Sky Studios' 8th animated feature film Epic.
She was the queen of a forest kingdom (located somewhere in Danbury, Connecticut, U.S.) who aims to find a reliable successor as the new ruler of her kingdom. Despite her unfortunate death in the hands of Mandrake, her intended goal was nonetheless carried on with the help of Mary Katherine "M.K." Bomba.
She was voiced by popular singer Beyoncé Knowles, who also played Foxxy Cleopatra in Austin Powers in Goldmember and Nala in the 2019 live-action remake of Disney's The Lion King.
Biography[]
She is protected by the Leafmen from the Boggans. One day, during the parade, Mandrake and his Boggans attacked the Leafmen, trying to get the flower from the queen. She helped take down a couple of Boggans and jumped on Ronin's hummingbird as Mandrake and his son Dagda were flying after them on their crows. Dagda shot two arrows at them, but Ronin grabs the first arrow with his hand and, with his bow, shoots the arrow at Dagda, killing him. Unfortunately, the second arrow mortally wounded the queen.
By that point, Mary Katherine "M.K." Bomba was walking through the forest. That was when the dying queen blew the flower, landing in M.K.'s hands, shrinking her down to the size of the Leafmen. The dying queen told M.K. to take the flower to Nim Galuu. All the Leafmen put their heads down in despair as the queen literally passes away, turning into a bunch of yellow magic sprites that ascended into the sky.
Her death was later avenged by the Leafmen once they finally defeated Mandrake and his fellow Boggans, and her legacy is now carried on by an unnamed flower girl.
Personality[]
She is a kind, gentle, sweet-natured queen who is very positive on life, and knows when to make sure that every living being on her kingdom is safe from any serious danger or harm.
