I chose Simba from “The Lion King” as an archetypal hero because throughout the movie he faces many challenges from the world around him as well as some pretty tragic events. Simba was born to be king after his father Mufasa while he was presented by Rafiki in a symbolic ritual. In a tragic turn of events at a young age, Simba is forced to leave the land due to his uncle Scar accusing him of killing his father, when it was actually Scar who did it. Witnessing the death of his father created a wound that would never heal, so as he is forced to leave the land he starts a journey.
