Khãn, also known as the Selfish Lion, is the overreaching antagonist of Disney's The Lion King franchise.
He is an elderly lion from the day when Mohatu was the first king of the Pride Lands and the one who corrupted young Scar/Taka when he got scratched in the eye by an angry buffalo and saw him as a reflection of himself, therefore only to use him as a bait to have the Pride Lands for himself.
Following the demise of Scar, Khãn would yet again be exiled to the Outlands when Simba took his place as the rightful king,...
He was voiced by Clint Eastwood.
