WHAT DOES SIMBA MEAN IN ENGLISH?

simba

Simba

Simba is a fictional character who appears in The Lion King franchise. Introduced in Walt Disney Pictures' 32nd animated feature film The Lion King, the character subsequently appears in its sequels The Lion King II: Simba's Pride and The Lion King 1½. In The Lion King, Simba's speaking voice is provided by actors Jonathan Taylor Thomas as a cub and Matthew Broderick as an adult, while actor and recording artist Jason Weaver and Toto lead singer Joseph Williams dub their respective singing voices. Since the release of The Lion King, numerous actors and singers have replaced them and voiced Simba in subsequent film and television releases, the most consistent of whom is actor Cam Clarke. A lion, Simba was created by screenwriters Irene Mecchi, Jonathan Roberts and Linda Woolverton. While Mark Henn served as Simba's supervising animator as a cub, Ruben A. Aquino animated the character as he appears as an adult. In The Lion King, Prince Simba, son to King Mufasa and Queen Sarabi of the Pride Lands, is eager to eventually replace his father as King until Mufasa is suddenly murdered by Simba's treacherous uncle, Scar.
