Scar is portrayed as a sociopathic lion in The Lion King. He schemes to kill his brother Mufasa and become king, pushing Mufasa into a stampede and showing no remorse over his death. Later, Scar lies to Simba by blaming Mufasa's death on him and orders the hyenas to kill Simba as well, displaying no care for his family and a willingness to harm others to advance himself. Throughout the film, Scar remains calm and unbothered after the deaths he has caused, demonstrating typical sociopathic traits like lack of empathy and using deception to manipulate situations to his advantage.
