!!Musketeers

[[folder: D'Artagnan]]
[[quoteright:250: https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/dartagnan_6489.png]]
!!!'''Portrayed by''': Creator/LoganLerman

A young man from the farmlands of Gascony, taught to fight by his father, a former musketeer. He embarks on a travel to Paris in order to fulfill his dream of becoming a musketeer himself, only to discover that Cardinal Richelieu has disbanded them.
-----
* CasanovaWannabe: Subverted. When he first encounters Constance - who he doesn't know is Queen Anne's lady-in-waiting and therefore notably higher up the social strata - she sees right through his cheesy attempts to woo her. It's only after he proves his passion to be a Musketeer and puts his life on the line - both for her and for France - that she understands the depths of his devotion and lets him in.
%%* CrashIntoHello: Constantly.
%%* FireForgedFriends: With Athos, Pothos and Aramis.
* GunsVsSwords: His first fight against Rochefort. Rochefort's guns win.
%%* HeroicResolve
%%* HotBlooded: A perfect example of the trope.
* TheLancer: Of the Musketeers, albeit being the protagonist.
* LimitedWardrobe: States to have only one set of clothes because his father is a poor man.

[[folder: Athos]]
[[quoteright:250: https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/athos_7244.png]]
!!!'''Portrayed by''': Creator/MatthewMacfadyen

The leader of the musketeers. A strong, honored and dedicated warrior, turned drastically harsh and bitter ([[DrowningMySorrows and a heavy drinker]]) after Milady's betrayal, leading to their failure in mission and subsequent disbandment. He [[ItsPersonal doesn't really get over it]] and still bears a severe grudge against his former lover.
-----
* DeadpanSnarker: The bitter version. He mocks the king ("He's a child, the Cardinal rules it all, might as well drink to him"), France ("We served it, fought for it and bled for it, look where it got us"), love and friendship ("a word of advice, boy: trust no one") while D'Artagnan attempts to propose what they should drink to.
%%* DrowningMySorrows
%%* GoodIsNotNice
%%* JerkWithAHeartOfGold
* KnightInSourArmor: He ultimately decides to remain a musketeer; even with all the cons, he still has faith in themselves.
%%* TheLeader: Type II all the way.
* TheStrategist: He comes up with the plans.
%%* TheStoic
* SupportingLeader: He's the leader of the musketeers, but not the protagonist.

[[folder: Milady de Winter]]
[[quoteright:250: https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/milady_7607.png]]
!!!'''Portrayed by''': Creator/MillaJovovich

Beautiful, charming and a [[LadyOfWar superb combatant]], she used to be Athos's lover and [[SixthRangerTraitor almost a fourth Musketeer]] (even uttering their motto with them)... until she pulled a FaceHeelTurn and double-crossed her allies [[OnlyInItForTheMoney when being evil proved to be more profitable]], leading them directly to their downfall. This deadly assassin then proceeds to become an EvilCounterpart of her former allies.

Although initially seeming to side with Buckingham, she's later revealed to be working under Cardinal Richelieu as a covert agent. Of course, it's [[ChronicBackstabbingDisorder Milady]] we're talking about, you can never know whose side she's really on, if any.

[[folder: Cardinal Richelieu]]
[[quoteright:250: https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/richelieu_4970.png]]
!!!'''Portrayed by''': Creator/ChristophWaltz

The cunning and manipulative Chief Minister of France, he all but governs the kingdom. Although he is a man of the church and servant to God, Richelieu [[SinisterMinister isn't very virtuous]]; he despises the king and the queen ("royal children", in his words) and sees himself as someone much better fit to rule France. Enlisting the help of Milady, he will stop at nothing to seize the crown.

Richelieu initially sees the Musketeers as a nuisance (as they're under the king's command, not his), and was the one responsible for their disbanding. When they resurface, the Cardinal starts to treat them as a threat to his plans.

* WorthyOpponent: Claims to play chess against himself because he can't find one.

[[folder: Duke of Buckingham]]
[[quoteright:250: https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/buckingham_1.png]]
!!!'''Portrayed by''': Creator/OrlandoBloom

A nobleman from England and the favourite of King James, Buckingham is implied to be an old foe of the Musketeers. Thanks to Milady's FaceHeelTurn, he's able to steal Da Vinci's secret project from Athos and proceed to build the grand [[CoolAirship flying machine]], in order to create a favorable scenario for England in case of war.

He's sent to France by King James to hear King Louis's peace proposal and takes advantage of the situation to show off his new machine, unaware that the Cardinal [[UnwittingPawn plans to use him as a pawn]] in his plot to take over the throne.

[[folder: Captain Rochefort]]
[[quoteright:250: https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/rochefort_8307.png]]
!!!'''Portrayed by''': Creator/MadsMikkelsen

The commander of the Cardinal's guard, a large army that patrols France and has largely replaced the King's musketeers. He reports directly to Richelieu, and is widely known as "the right-hand man of the most powerful person in France". He develops a rivalry with D'Artagnan, and Cardinal Richelieu ultimately gives him the task of destroying the Musketeers once and for all.
-----
* AdaptationalJobChange: In the novel, he is the Comte de Rochefort, serving as an underhanded agent to Richelieu who does dirty work that the Cardinal's Guards cannot. Here, he's ''Captain'' Rochefort, leader of said guards.
* BadBoss: He is prone to hitting and even killing his own men for making mistakes or questioning orders.
%%* ClimaxBoss
%%* CombatPragmatist
* DeathByAdaptation: Rochefort is fatally stabbed by D'Artagnan in the movie's climax, but lives to be in the novel's sequel.
* TheDragon: Richelieu's second Dragon. As leader of the Cardinals Guards, he is a more official Dragon than Milady.
* EyepatchOfPower: He wears an eyepatch over his left eye and is a formidable swordsman.
* GunsVsSwords: His first fight against D'Artagnan. His guns win.

-----
* BenevolentBoss: To his musketeers, whom he seems to have a soft spot for.
* CampStraight: A fashion faux pas isn't just about his reputation as king, he throws hissy fits about it.

%%* TheDandy

[[folder: Queen Anne]]
!!!'''Portrayed by''': Creator/JunoTemple
