With Scar confirmed as a future villian what do you think his role will be like?
First off I'm not even sure if it'll be a one time thing or if he'll be recurrent in the series, but because of how big of a villian he is to the franchise I hope it's only for one long episode. It's easy to guess he'll appear as a spirit of the sorts, and I think it would be really interesting if he appeared only to Kion like Mufasa does. Maybe Scar could be a manifestation of Kion's fears, or just outright be a spirit trying to deceive Kion. Futhermore if Kion mentioned Scar to his parents I think it could be of great potential to see some character depth for both Simba and Nala.
Whatever it is the writers decided to do I hope Scar doesn't lose his serious dark element just because TLG has a child demographic. Timon/Chungu's voice actor did say after all that season 2 is darker. Maybe this was what he was talking about?
Anyways what are your thoughts?
