Richard the III truly only became a villain at the hands of William Shakespeare, who turned him into a hunchbacked warmongering monster. This was most likely due to his desire to impress Queen Elizabeth, a descendent of the Tudor line who's Grandfather took the throne from Richard III at the end of the Wars of the Roses.
In truth, Richard was no worse than either of his brothers, and perhaps a great deal better than his middle brother George. His one noted villainous act may have been the death of his nephews, the lost princes of the Tower of London. However, though contextual evidence suggests he was responsible for their disappearance, no real proof has ever been found. In short, Richard was a York King, and if that makes him a villain, then at least he wasn't alone.
