Free or charged is irrelevant if trademarked character names or copyright infringement is involved.
You can do your version of Snow White, or a sequel, but you can't use Disney's names for the Dwarves. Even if it's given away free.
You can easily do a Harry Potter book where there is no magic and Harry is a Police Inspector and has no connection to J Rowling's Harry Potter.
