In Mickey's Once Upon a Christmas, Minnie is Mickey's hard-working girlfriend who, despite her hard work, is in debt with bills and tries not to let Mickey know. She plans to use her Christmas bonus to buy a gift for Mickey, but she ends up receiving a fruitcake. She ends up trading her prized watch for a case for Mickey's beloved harmonica, but Mickey trades his harmonica for a chain for Minnie's watch.

To avoid a threat to his plan, Pete hires three janitors, Mickey, Donald, and Goofy, to be the musketeer bodyguards, believing they'll do a terrible job. After being rescued from a kidnapping scheme, Mickey and Minnie embrace their forbidden love on an evening date across the kingdom. That night, Mickey, Donald, and Goofy are kidnapped by Pete and his minions. Minnie is surprised that Daisy is kissing a commoner (Donald) and the two agree as she kisses her new lover. Minnie dubs the trio royal musketeers and presumably marries Mickey afterward.
Voice
When Mickey disappears in the first game, at Mickey's request, she sends Donald and Goofy to find him. She also sends Jiminy Cricket to accompany them, and she ruled the kingdom during the King's absence. In the series, Minnie is an employee of Mickey's local car garage in Hot Dog Hills. Her transforming roadster is known as "Pink Thunder", which was designed to pay tribute to her bow.
House of Mouse
Designated as a Los Angeles Historical Cultural Monument, the house is currently under rehabilitation and set to be restored to the way it once looked in the 1920s. In the Los Feliz neighborhood of Los Angeles, Walt moved to a Craftsman-style home at 4406 Kingswell Avenue, where his uncle Robert and aunt Charlotte rented him a room for five dollars a month. He worked on his new animation in Uncle Robert’s garage, soon to be joined by his younger brother Roy, moving to a new house across the street and founding the Disney Brothers Studio. Broke but still determined to make it big, 22-year-old Walt sold his movie camera to make enough money for a one-way ticket to Hollywood, hopping on the train with an unfinished feel of Laugh-O-Gram’s final film, Alice’s Wonderland.
Featured cartoons
Minnie is traditionally depicted as a starving musician, singer, and songwriter. Her classy, yet no-nonsense demeanor acts as a foil to the troublemaking Mickey. Throughout the 1930s, Minnie was a frequent participant in Mickey's adventures, often serving as the damsel-in-distress at the hands of the villainous Peg-Leg Pete. In the 1940s, Minnie was relegated to bit parts in cartoons starring her kitten, Figaro, and Mickey's dog, Pluto.

Two months later on March 4, Minnie headlined the very first Mickey Mouse-themed dark ride in the Disney theme parks' history, with the opening of Mickey and Minnie's Runaway Railway at Disney's Hollywood Studios. In Steamboat Willie, Minnie's vocal effects were provided by Walt Disney, who also lent his voice to Mickey. In subsequent short films throughout 1929, Minnie remained a largely silent character outside of brief vocalizations and one-word pieces of dialogue. Cartoons such as The Plowboy featured Minnie singing her signature leitmotif. She is also the head statue in the atrium of the Disney Fantasy and can be seen flying in the Toon Plane in the magical portholes on board the Disney Dream and Fantasy. In 2011, along with Karl Holz, Minnie laid the keel for the Disney Fantasy.

Garner would continue to voice Minnie for over forty cartoons while simultaneously working as an ink-and-painter. Garner left the studio in 1941 and worked with other animation departments, though she recalled briefly returning to Disney for a recording. Archival recordings of Marcellite's performances were used for Minnie in the 2013 short film Get a Horse!. House of Mouse episodes aside, Mickey & crew next celebrated the holidays in 2004's Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas. The finished Alice’s Wonderland, which mixed live-action and animation, was not theatrically released, but it did get the Disney brothers a distributor.
This humble American Craftsman home is where the Disney brothers’ animation business took flight in 1923.
The 'Mickeyologist' home in Los Angeles could be called the 'Mouse House.' It's filled with games, watched, toys, dolls, even an original Walt Disney business card. When ABC7's George Pennacchio asked Shine, "How many Mickey items do you think you've collected?" Shine had no idea, but he did share a desire to one day share all of his collectibles in some for or fashion. As he put it, "It's better when this kind of Mickey magic and joy is shared." The Charlotte and Robert Disney House changed hands numerous times over the years, occasionally threatened by demolition. A recent public outcry seems to have solidified its fate, however, and for the better.
Donald is still not in the Christmas mood, so Mickey shows clips of him asking the audience members what they wished to have for Christmas. Seeing that Donald is still not willing to change his mood, Mickey shows two more cartoons, Pluto's Christmas Tree and "The Nutcracker", plus excerpts of Mickey decorating his house from "Mickey's Christmas Chaos". In it, Minnie is worried about the large number of villains in the club on Halloween night, thinking that they might be up to something, but Mickey is not worried about it.
Minnie also has an alter-ego known as Detective Minnie famous for solving mysteries in the clubhouse. Detective Minnie often teams up with Daisy's alias Secret Spy Daisy to solve major issues. Minnie has become the star of the most recent of the show's specials most notably Minnie's Bowtique where she opens a boutique selling all forms of bows. The short harkens back to the style and sensibilities of cartoons from the 1920's and 1930's. This would mark Taylor's final theatrical role as Minnie, prior to her passing in 2019. In 2013, a new series of Mickey Mouse shorts premiered for the Disney Channel.
On January 23, 2016, Minnie served as the inspiration for the "Rock the Dots" art and fashion show, taking place in Downtown Los Angeles, California. The book also includes an extensive look at Minnie's filmography with a visual timeline. Minnie was given a starring role in the 2012 animated short, Electric Holiday. In this story, Minnie spotted a beautiful dress in a store window, and this leads to a daydream where Minnie envisions herself as a prospering supermodel living in the city of Paris. Fortunately, Mickey just so happens to buy it for her, and she is very happy. After a long hiatus from animated feature films or short films, Minnie would reappear in Mickey's Christmas Carol in 1983, though in an extremely minor role as the wife of Bob Cratchit (played by Mickey) as well as a non-speaking appearance.
Minnie Mouse is the most common Disney character in the Disney theme parks, after Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck. She is normally dressed in a red polka dot dress and bow, with yellow heels. Although Minnie did not officially appear in Fun and Fancy Free, a scene with her, as Happy Valley's queen, was planned to be included in the Mickey and the Beanstalk segment before the decision was made to drop it from the film. In the scene, Mickey came before her to sell her his cow and in exchange, she gave him the magic beans.
