Mufasa: The Lion King star Kelvin Harrison Jr. teases Scar's backstory in the upcoming prequel. From Oscar-winning Moonlight writer-director Barry Jenkins, the upcoming Disney prequel will chronicle Mufasa's origins long before he becomes king of the Pride Lands, as well as his troubled relationship with his brother Scar, who is previously known as Taka and voiced by Harrison Jr.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT During a recent interview with Fandango promoting his new movie Chevalier, Harrison Jr. took some time to talk about Scar's role in the Mufasa: The Lion King story. The voice actor says that Scar is "still very, very spicy," but also "the sweetest young lion" you'll ever meet.
We’re going to get to really get a backstory to Scar and he is hilarious. He is still very, very spicy. He is also the sweetest, the sweetest young lion you also ever meet, too. So it’s going to be fun seeing the relationship between Scar and Mufasa. So that’s what I can say. What To Expect From Scar's Backstory In Mufasa: The Lion King As its title indicates, Mufasa: The Lion King will mainly tell the story of Mufasa’s childhood and how he grew up to become king of the Pride Lands. The prequel seems to take inspiration from Disney's 1994 tie-in book, A Tale of Two Brothers, which sees Rafiki telling Simba, having become king of the Pride Lands, the story of Mufasa and Scar and how the brothers became great rivals.
