King of the Kalahari
King of the Kalahari was the first script for The Lion King, written in 1988 by Tom Disch. This script was written on nine pages, but only the first was scanned. In Diamond Edition of the first film, it was discovered that the story followed a war between lions and baboons, whose leader was a baboon named Scar. Rafiki was a cheetah, and Simba was supposed to become a lazy and negative character who was later overthrown.SPOILER (clicca per visualizzare)
Plot
After the pre-credit sequence (crossing the Sahara and the Congo jungle), we hear the deep, creepy voice of the vulture Skobi. He says that the Dark Continent is composed of many small kingdoms and that the broad veldts is ruled by a "king of beasts," or a lion. He is the creator of three laws that apply to all the beasts: be alert, be fast, and be patient. While he talks, a herd of wildebeests eats grass while a pride of lions monitors them. One wildebeest sniffs the air and alerts the others to run. One wildebeest falls behind the herd, and the lions hunt him down. Their king, Brond, stands above them.
With their prey caught, the lions gather to feast, though Brond is allowed the first bite, much to the annoyance of a young male, Mruki. Lisaba scolds him for this, reminding him that Brond and his mate Sheena are the first to eat from the carcass, but Mruki ignores her, advancing on the fallen prey. This earns him a swipe from Weena, Sheena's younger sister, and mocking from Weena's daughter. Mruki's annoyance is only fueled by reprimands by Skobi.
After the prey is devoured, the pride returns to their home, where Sheena greets her son Rego, the Heir Apparent. Despite his regal title, he is lazily playing with a mouse, which earns him a gentle scold from his mother, who orders him to stop playing with his food.
