| | ''Jafar's cunning, crotchety parrot. He's Jafar's eyes and ears as he flies around Agrabah, spying on his master's enemies. Iago takes after Jafar, with a penchant for intrigue and evil.'' |
| Shortly after [[Jafar]] succeeds in taking control of [[Agrabah]] with the [[Heartless]], princess [[Jasmine]] manages to escape the palace. Iago is sent to search for her; however, he has no luck in locating the princess. He arrives during Jafar's meeting with [[Maleficent]], informing him about his fruitless search. After Maleficent reminds Jafar of the importance of having all seven [[Princesses of Heart]] along with the [[keyhole]] of this world, Jafar calls upon three [[Bandit]]s to help Iago in the search.

| When Jafar confronts [[Sora]], [[Donald]], [[Goofy]] and [[Aladdin]] at the palace gates, Iago discreetly manages to steal [[Genie]]'s lamp from them and give it to Jafar, canceling out Aladdin's wish to save Jasmine.

|
| Shortly after Jafar uses his last wish to become a genie himself, Iago is forced to carry his new lamp around the Lava Chamber, despite the immense heat. However, Sora manages to take it from him and suck Jafar into the lamp to defeat him. Unfortunately, as Iago attempted to flee, Jafar grabbed him while thrashing around in resistance, trapping them both in the lamp.

| ==Design== | | ==Story== |
| Iago strongly resembles a plump {{w|scarlet macaw}}. Most of his plumage is red, except for his tail and the tips of the first four feathers on each wing (Iago uses these feathers as "fingers"). Iago's sclera are yellow and his eyes are surrounded by a white, featherless area. He also has a large, yellow-orange beak and yellow-orange talons. Iago's talons have three toes arranged in such a way that he has two in the front and one in the back, as opposed to real macaws having four toes, two in the front and two in the back. He has a thick black "uni-brow" and three thin, black feathers sprouting out of the top of his head. Iago's eyes are also set facing forward, unlike any species of macaw (and most species of birds). Arguably, the biggest difference between Iago and other birds is the fact that he has straight, white teeth in his beak like a human, and his tongue is rather human-like as well.
| | ===''[[Kingdom Hearts (game)|Kingdom Hearts]]''=== |
| | In ''Kingdom Hearts'', Iago was Jafar's servant. He played a minor role, normally just appearing on Jafar's shoulder in cinematics, though he was the one who stole [[Genie|Genie's]] lamp from [[Aladdin]]. He later appeared holding Jafar's lamp in the boss battle, and flew around with it. The lamp was one of the ways to damage Jafar. Like the movie, Iago tried to fly away at the downfall of Jafar, but ended up in the lamp as well. |

|
| ==Personality== | | ===''[[Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories]]''=== |
| Iago is a pigeon-hearted parrot, who is often aggravated and vocalizes his infuriation freely. Iago is frightened quite easily, especially by the person he fears the most—Jafar. Iago is very faithful to Jafar, mainly due to the immense fear of punishment he would receive should he fail his master. Although Iago gives off a "tough guy" exterior, he has a good heart, as seen in the second return to Agrabah in ''Kingdom Hearts II,'' when Iago shields Aladdin from one of Jafar's attacks, nearly sacrificing himself. | | Iago made a small cameo appearance in ''Chain of Memories'', holding the lamp during the Jafar boss battle, like in the first game. |
|
| |
|
| ==Origin== | | ===''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''=== |
| Iago originally appeared in the 1992 film ''Aladdin'', voiced by Gilbert Gottfried. In the film, he is Jafar's parrot and spy, helping Jafar with his plan to marry Jasmine and become sultan of Agrabah. While in the presence of others, Iago uses speech appropriate for a normal parrot instead using fluent language. As shown throughout the film, the Sultan is fond of Iago and frequently feeds him crackers, something that Iago despises. When Aladdin goes into the Cave of Wonders to retrieve Genie's magic lamp, Iago steals it from him and gives it to Jafar. After Aladdin's arrival at the palace disguised as a prince, Jafar discovers his true identity and sends Iago to find the lamp and bring it to him, which he successfully did. When Aladdin sneaks into the palace to take Genie's lamp back, Iago spots and attempts to warn his master, but is swiftly silenced by Abu. In the climactic battle, Iago briefly fights [[Abu]] until Abu knocks him out for a few moments. Once Jafar is tricked into wishing to be a genie, he is sucked into his new lamp and Iago tries to flee from the scene, but is grabbed by Jafar and trapped inside the lamp along him. At the end, Iago is heard arguing with his master inside the lamp, having lost his patience with him.
| | |
| | In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Iago, like ''The Return of Jafar'', was finally free from Jafar's lamp. When he encountered [[Sora]] and the others again, he tried to convince them that he had turned over a new leaf, although only [[Goofy]] seemed to believe him until Iago saved the group from a bunch of Heartless. |
|
| |
|
| In ''The Return of Jafar'', Iago escapes from the lamp and he switches sides, mostly because he is tired with being pushed around by Jafar. Over the course of the film, Iago slowly warms to the idea of friendship after Aladdin saves him from the Sultan's wrath in return for Iago unintentionally saving him from the criminal Abis Mal. Jafar, retaining his genie powers from the first film, eventually returns, having tricked Abis Mal into releasing him, and confronts Iago to threaten him into leading Aladdin and company into a trap. After Aladdin's friends are taken prisoner and Aladdin himself is framed for the murder of the Sultan, Iago finally stands up to Jafar and releases the Genie, later risking his life to kill Jafar by pushing his lamp into molten lava. After his heroic and selfless deed, he is welcomed into Aladdin's extended family.
