The new Lion King movie brings a fresh, deeper take on the classic. We get to see Mufasa’s roots and even a different side of Scar before he became the villain we know. Rafiki’s backstory adds some really cool layers too. What really stood out was how Mufasa becomes king—it’s not what you'd expect, and that moment hits different without giving too much away. And the bad lions from before his time? They add a whole new depth to the Pride Lands' history that makes the world feel bigger and more real.
