List of The Lion King (franchise) characters
He is the son of Mufasa and Sarabi, Scar's nephew, Nala's mate, Sarafina's son-in-law and Kiara and Kion's father as well as Rani and Kovu's father-in-law.
In season two, Kion, Simba's son and the leader of the new Lion Guard, unknowingly summons Scar back as a fiery spirit in a volcano after using the Roar in anger when Janja provokes him.
At the end of the episode "TV Dinner", the hyenas replace television host Martin Partin, which may indicate that they are living a new life as directors and stars of the wildlife documentary show Kingdom of the Creatures, where they get fed during their new career.
In The Lion King II: Simba's Pride, it was only mentioned by Nuka that the hyenas have left the Elephant Graveyard, most likely out of fear of Zira's wrath for betraying Scar.
He is Scar's older brother, Sarabi's mate, Simba's father, Nala's father-in-law, and Kion and Kiara's paternal grandfather who is introduced as the King of the Pride Lands.
Alongside Askari and the previous queen of the Tree of Life, Janna, he proudly watches over Kion after his marriage to Rani by accepting her as his paternal granddaughter-in-law.
Zazu's blue feathers have been replaced with white and the puppet is partially constructed from parachute silk with a slinky contained in the neck for ease in movement.
He is a sneaky, manipulative and sly muscular man with a pinkish-red bulbous nose (which becomes the same color as the rest of his body in most episodes of season three) who has varying roles in the series.
In other instances, as shown in "Palm Beached" and "Going Over-Boar'd", because of Timon and Pumbaa's failure to act in accordance to regulations or rules, he will get into scrapes with the duo in the defense of his business or occupation.
Speedy (voiced by Corey Burton doing a Bing Crosby impression) is a talking and singing grayish/bluish snail with a shiny red shell and a yellow fedora.
Speedy frequently finds himself in danger, such as becoming a French gourmet snail by Culinary Quint and an earring out of his shell by a married couple, as well as getting captured by a seagull as he returns to his home.
A meerkat who looks and sounds strikingly similar to Fred (minus the red nose and buck teeth) briefly appears in The Lion King 1½, at the end of the song "Digga Tunnah".
He also has a son named Boy Beaver (voiced by Mark Schiff), who is shown to be mischievous but also quite malicious behind his father's back, as he damages rides and machines which lead to Timon and Pumbaa nearly getting killed.
For example, in "Amusement Bark", as he catches his son attempting to hurt Timon and Pumbaa, he is seemingly more concerned that the duo will demand an exorbitant monetary settlement for their injuries.
Toucan Dan makes his second and final appearance in "Alcatraz Mataz", in which he frames Timon for committing a crime of stealing a train car full of beak polish and the police throw him and Pumbaa in prison.
They make their first appearance in "The Law of the Jungle", where they arrest Timon for using the Forbidden Stick to scratch his back and take him to Judge Rhino, who gives several tests to see whether he's innocent or guilty.
When the vulture police arrest Toucan Dan after finding out that he's the true criminal, Pumbaa tells Timon that now that his good name has been cleared, he is now free from prison.
Smolder (voiced by Jim Cummings) is a grumpy and short-tempered grizzly bear who gets easily angered and threatens to harm anyone who gets on his bad side, such as when he is awoken from his nap or when someone gets his food order wrong.
His troubles typically come from Timon and Pumbaa, and with his strength, claws, and sharp teeth, he is capable of damaging objects, which he demonstrates as he warns the duo what would happen to them if they do anything to make him angry.
Smolder also has a romantic interest in a beautiful supermodel and spokesperson named Leslie Lambeau (voiced by Grey DeLisle), though it is unrequited due to the difference in species.
Shifty[8] (voiced by Joe Alaskey), most commonly known as Little Jimmy, is an extremely dangerous bluebird, similar to Toucan Dan in the fact that he is also a deceptive criminal mastermind.
As a young adult, Kiara is rescued by Kovu as part of Zira's plan to avenge Scar's death, but the two lions eventually fall in love.
Unlike her great uncle Scar and grandfather Mufasa's sibling rivalry, it does not turn into hatred, as Kiara and Kion resolve their differences and became very close.
Turner talked about the role and even sang a portion of her character's song (stating the film would be her singing debut) during an interview on The Rosie O'Donnell Show on March 10, 1998.
During the Outsiders' ambush, Nuka attempts to finally kill Simba himself to prove his worth, but was crushed to death by the falling logs, though he managed to gain the attention he longed for.
Years later, after she and her pride joined Simba's while Kion and his friends were travelling to the Tree of Life, Vitani formed her own Lion Guard in their absence, where it was also mentioned what happened to Zira.
She proves herself worthy to become the leader of the Lion Guard after she bravely challenges Kion despite not having the Roar of the Elders, thus revealing her heroic and honorable attributes thereby redeemed from her past villainy.
[10] Kopa is the son of Simba and Nala, Mufasa, Sarabi, and Sarafina’s grandson, and Scar’s grand-nephew appearing in the book series The Lion King: Six New Adventures, and is shown to look a lot like his father as a cub, except with a tuft of hair on top of his head.
Uru is the mother of Mufasa and Taka (Scar), the grandmother of Simba, the great-grandmother of Kopa, and the queen of the Pride Lands during the events of The Lion King: Six New Adventures story A Tale of Two Brothers.
Her talkative nature and nosy habits often make her a bit of an annoyance to the other animals; however, Ahadi puts her personality to good use to get a better grip on the doings of his kingdom.
