CharacterFranchise
Daisy DuckMickey & Friends
Oswald the Lucky Rabbit*Classic Disney (possibly Mickey & Friends)
TianaPrincess and the Frog
TimonThe Lion King
PumbaaThe Lion King
CinderellaCinderella
RalphWreck-It Ralph

In terms of free updates, a “vibrant” Villager now confirmed to be Daisy Duck is coming in early spring, and a new realm that seems to be Mulan-related is coming in late spring. After that, Tiana was announced for summer 2024.

When the expansion was announced, the developers teased a “lucky villager” that players will befriend during the expansion. This is confirmed to be Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, the precursor of Mickey Mouse, who starred in several animated shorts during the 1920s and 1930s.

Aladdin villain Jafar is playing a role in the new A Rift in Time expansion story, but he is not confirmed as a Villager. Based on the Expansion Pass roadmap, it’s possible he will become recruitable by the time the third chapter is released in the summer of 2024.
