Harry Hook is the secondary antagonist, who appears in the sequel Descendants 2 and the tertiary antagonist turned supporting character/anti-hero in Descendants 3. He is the son of Captain Hook and the brother of CJ and Harriet Hook. He is the first mate of Uma's pirate crew. Harry is Uma's oldest and closest friend. Having been described as defending Uma from bullying and harassment.
Harry is sneaky, wild, unpredictable (which can be perceived as crazy), rude, and evil but has a heart. His heart is shown (figuratively) when it comes to his hook. Harry is fond of his hook to the point of being obsessed with it. When Jay grabbed his hook and threatened to drop it into the ocean, Harry backed away and dropped his sword as people would do in a hostage situation. When Jay dropped it into the ocean, Harry jumped in after it without a second thought. The hook may be a memory or deep connection to his father, Captain Hook.
He considers Tourney to be "a wee boys game". Harry finds the idea of summer school laughable, as even the schools on the Isle did not have it; he laughs that it must be the reason Audrey snapped.
Harry has unquestioning loyalty to his best friend Uma, whom he immediately returns to obeying once they reunite in Descendants 3. After Uma, Harry is close to Gil, the muscle of their pirate crew; unlike the rest of their crew, the two of them stuck together during the two years Uma was gone from the Isle, always waiting for a chance to escape to find their leader and continue their pirating. He also seems to be very protective of Uma, defending her from bullying and harassment as well as being by her side in a fight.
