[quote="ScarXZira10889"]Well everyone, Someone had a talk with the director via Facebook and Darrell said that Kovu is just an orphan.

Rooney said he was "described as an orphan", not one directly. And since he wrote "(if I remember correctly)", he may be having a memory lapse since nowhere in the film was Kovu referred to as an orphan. It's only stated twice he is not Scar's son and there's no question that Zira is Kovu's mother. I don't hold it against him that he hasn't watched his own film in a while.
