“ | The Screenslaver interrupts this program for an important announcement. Don't bother watching the rest. Elastigirl doesn't save the day; she only postpones her defeat. And while she postpones her defeat, you eat chips and watch her invert problems that you are too lazy to deal with. Superheroes are part of your brainless desire to replace true experience with simulation. You don't talk, you watch talk shows. You don't play games, you watch game shows. Travel, relationships, risk; every meaningful experience must be packaged and delivered to you to watch at a distance so that you can remain ever-sheltered, ever-passive, ever-ravenous consumers who can't free themselves to rise from their couches, break a sweat, and participate in life. You want superheroes to protect you, and make yourselves ever more powerless in the process. While you tell yourselves you're being "looked after". That your interests are being served and your rights are being upheld. So that the system can keep stealing from you, smiling at you all the while. Go ahead, send your supers to stop me. Grab your snacks, watch your screens, and see what happens. You are no longer in control. I am. | „ |
~ Screenslaver's speech after hijacking the signal to Elastigirl's interview |
“ | You are good. | „ |
~ Evelyn revealing her true nature. |

She was voiced by Catherine Keener.
Her Evil Ranking[]
What Makes Her Close to Being Pure Evil?[]
- She brainwashed the driver of a train, hacking it and making it go reverse in the process so it would derail at the end of the track, which could have killed a lot of passengers had Elastigirl not intervened.
- She interrupted an interview with Elastigirl by brainwashing the cast and intended to have an ambassador killed in a helicopter crash, whom she was able to save.
- She brainwashed a pizzeria worker and made him put on the fake alias as the Screenslaver, incriminating him and showing no remorse when being called out for this by Elastigirl later on, she justifies this by claiming he was rude to her and that the pizza he delivered to her was cold, which is a petty reason.
- When Elastigirl tracked down the decoy after setting up a fake interview as bait, Evelyn had her pawn try to kill her with a weapon that neutralizes her elasticity, and when she proved too much to handle, she had her pawn activate a bomb which blew up part of an apartment complex they were fighting in after she caught him, nearly killing multiple people who were residing there.
- After Elastigirl realized that the Screenslaver's hypnoscreens are also within its hypnogoggles during the celebration at DevTech, she brainwashed her by putting the hypnogoggles on her.
- After revealing to Elastigirl that she was the real Screenslaver, she hypocritically called her brother a manchild and mocked her for counting on her while talking about her blind hatred for supers due to what happened to her parents before brainwashing her again, intending to use her for her plan to keep supers illegal forever.
- She tricked Mr. Incredible into "rescuing" Elastigirl and brainwashed him along with other supers (except Dash, Violet, and Jack-Jack) when he fell for her trap.
- She had Mr. Incredible, Elastigirl, and Frozone assault the crew controlling the Everjust yacht after having them speak a vow about supers being threats to society.
- Before she had Mr. Incredible attack the last crew member unconscious, she allowed him to call for help about the incident, intending to incriminate them for what's happening on the ship.
- She had the three destroy the wheel and controls on the ship, intending to have it crash into the city, which would have caused hundreds to thousands of deaths.
- She hypnotized the foreign delegates and other supers on the ship, planning to have them killed as well before escaping on its jet, dragging her brother along, though he refused to escape with her after discovering her plan.
- After the supers broke free from her control with the help of Elastigirl and the others, when she chased after Evelyn and landed in the jet, she flew it higher in the sky, intending to have her killed by getting her hypoxia while taunting her that supers' reputations are officially tarnished with the chances of them regaining their legality impossible.
- Even though Elastigirl saved her, she showed no remorse over her acts nor any gratitude, blatantly telling her that her deed doesn't make her a hero before getting sent to jail; even when Elastigirl was saving her, she resisted, preferring to die.
- While her actions may not be as heinous as Syndrome's crimes, she still stands out due to having lesser resources than him as Syndrome had an island, rockets, jets, missiles, killer robots, and lots of henchmen, and Evelyn is the co-CEO of a large business company with inventing skills, a taser stick and a hypnotiser at her disposal, yet she nearly caused a lot more deaths than Syndrome ever did.
- While her intentions sound noble in theory, they are ultimately warped to her own standards, with Elastigirl pointing out she really doesn't have an ideology, just a list of people she hates.
- While she has a few comedic moments (with both her birth name and villainous alias really speaking for themselves), she is still taken 100% seriously by the characters.
What Prevents Her from Being Pure Evil?[]
- She loves her family, as her actions are motivated by the deaths of her parents, and she tried to save her brother from getting killed with the delegates and supers on the Everjust by dragging him with her onto its jet.
