Oscar nominated actor Chiwetel Ejiofor is in talks to voice the role of Scar, the traitorous villain in Disney?s live-action re-imagining of its classic, The Lion King. Jon Favreau, who directed the live-action remake of The Jungle Book, is sitting behind the camera for the film. The movie already has a stellar voice cast, including Donald Glover as Simba, the young lion who ends up being king, along with James Earl Jones as his father, Mufasa. Jones also voiced the character in the 1994 original.
