Is Nuka Scar's son?

[Eli_Ayase]

Either yes either no THIS IS A CONFUSEMENT!

[crystally]

Natalie, I'm just curious, are you British?

I personally wouldn't call it confusion...you know those situations where there are at least five different options and you have no idea which one makes more sense than the other? That's confusion in my book ;D I see where you're coming from though. My opinions on this sort of contradict each other..I certainly believe Nuka is old enough to be Scar's son, and they also look somewhat similar..but I don't really think Zira ever had anything but an obsession with Scar. I don't think they ever had any cubs together.

Crystally - of course im brittish! who then - malasian XD. Frida - maybe zira adopted them XD It would be wierd wait did she??

[crystally]

So you're british or malaysian? I asked because your location is England (London?) but it seems that English isn't your first language...

but anyway, I've always thought Nuka is zira and scar's son, because why would zira and her cubs appear in the movie at all if they're not related to any of the original characters?

Because every movie needs an antagonist of some sort. Which, in this case, is Zira and her pride, a group of former Pridelanders who were forced into exile for being loyal to Scar. Kovu was obviously created to serve as Kiara's love interest, and the other two are there because they add variety and depth to the story.

[crystally]

Still, why them? Why zira and her cubs? Surely they're related to some of the original characters. Besides, they could've make the antagonist a male but no, instead they made it a mother with her cubs. The movie doesn't need to explain this bit, us the audiences should be able to put the pieces together.

[AdAstrα]

Well Scar was obviously male, so I guess they tried to avoid the antagonist of SP becoming a rip-off by making Zira a female. Which makes sense, really.

I guess that Zira got her cubs with another lion than Scar, she looks more like a fan than a widow...
