As Chiwetel Ejiofor told Entertainment Weekly, Scar feels that he isn't where he is supposed to be, that the universe is out to get him and he is being denied something that he feels he's owed, in this case, the throne. It has shades of Stannis Baratheon's claim to the Iron Throne, but instead of being governed by a strict sense of duty and right, Scar is governed by envy and desire. That psychology results in Scar having a massive chip on his shoulder and crafting a narrative in his head that he's the downtrodden hero that has been mistreated by the world and those around him. And he naturally sees Simba as someone else who stands in his way. Despite being a member of the royal family, this character, inspired by Hamlet's King Claudius, sees himself as an outcast and pals around with the hyenas that also don't have a place within the circle of life governed by the pride. You can see why Chiwetel Ejiofor was so excited to dig into Scar's psychology because there's a lot going on there. Chiwetel Ejiofor talked about what that psychology would do over time, but it's also interesting to ask what birthed those feelings in the first place. Therefore, there is curiosity if The Lion King will explore the history of Chiwetel Ejiofor's Scar at all. In Il Re Leone (1994), Scar is simply named Scar and the audience never really gets to know much about how he got his name.
