Okaaay, we have a first look at Scar in TLG now:



Apparently he'll be a ghost made of volcano flames in the TV movie. Even though I still raise my eyebrow at the idea, I think he looks pretty cool, I like it.

But as it turns out, he won't be reprised by Jeremy Irons (*sigh*), but instead he'll be played by David Oyelowo.
It's very disappointing that they didn't get Irons, but I haven't heard Oyelowo yet, so I'm really hoping he's a good choice at least.

As for how he'll be brought back, it seems that Kion will accidentally summon Scar after he uses the Roar of the Elders during a fit of anger.
