The Lion King is the story of Simba, a lion cub born to King Mufasa and Queen Sarabi of the Pride Lands of Africa. He grows up along side his best friend, Nala. Scar, the brother of King Mufasa soon realizes that with Simba being born, he is no longer an heir to the throne and plots to kill both Mufasa and Simba to secure his place as King of the Pride Lands. Scar lures Simba into dangerous places and sets up traps in an attempt to kill him. When Simba has grown up, he ends up in a fight with Scar, having him cornered. Scar begs for his forgiveness and promises to leave the Pride Lands and never return. As he is leaving, he turns and attacks Simba. They fight and eventually Simba throws Scar off a cliff to the hyenas.Awards
