Tsar Nicholas II (Nikolai II Alexandrovich Romanov) was the last Emperor of Imperial Russia. He was also the son of Empress Marie, the husband of Alexandra Feodorovna, and the father of Olga, Tatiana, Maria, Anastasia, and Alexei.
Physical Appearance[]
Nicholas had brown hair, brown eyes (blue in real life) and thick eyebrows. He had a short beard with a mustache. Since he occupied the highest position in Russia during that time, he was always seen with an elegant suit, which was composed with a white shirt that had a thick blue sash (from his right shoulder to his left hip). On each shoulder he had a fringe, from which a tiny and thin chain hanged on the right hand side. He had black belt and boots and had red trousers with a thin yellow stripe at its extremes.
Appearances[]
Anastasia[]
He appears to be attending a ball with everyone to celebrate the 300th anniversary of the Romanovs ruling. When Rasputin attacked, he was assassinated along with everyone else (except for Anastasia, who somehow survived, though it was also most likely because of plot armor).
Trivia[]
- Nicholas II is one of the three members of the Romanov family to have spoken dialogue, the other being Anastasia and Alexei. His voice was provided by Canadian voice actor Rick Jones.
- Nicholas II bears the closest physical resemblance to his historical counterpart out of all the characters in the film, with the exception of eye color. In the film, his eyes are brown, when in real life they were blue.
- In real life, Czar Nicholas' wife, the Czarina Alexandra was a granddaughter of Queen Victoria and a cousin of the German kaiser Willhelm II.
- According to the film, Anastasia was eight years old rather than seventeen at the time of the revolution. In addition, the film also states that the revolution occurred in 1916 as opposed to 1917. This implies that Nicholas was 41 instead of 50.
- Before the birth of his son, Nicholas is said to have contemplated lifting the ban on female rulers in Russia established by Tsar Paul around 1800, this means boys born after girls cannot replace their sisters (ex, Alexei being fifth in line instead of first). In the family portrait Olga, the oldest child, is the only one sitting down with attire that seems modelled on the imperial robes of her father. In this version she could have perhaps been the heir instead of her sickly younger brother, making Vlad's comment 'we have found the heir to the Russian throne' true in regards to Anastasia as she is now first in line since Olga, Tatiana and Maria died in the Revolution.
