The Wan Brothers () were 20th century animators born in Nanjing, China. They became the founders and pioneers of the Chinese animation industry and made the first Asian animation feature-length film, Princess Iron Fan in 1941.
The era in which the Wan brothers operated was a rather challenging one for building an industry. The brothers lived through the Second Sino-Japanese War, World War II and the Cultural Revolution. They also made the famous cartoon animation, Havoc in Heaven.
Their father was in the silk business. Their mother was a seamstress.
