Simba's Roar in "The Lion King"

[SpinelSun]

Simba's roar in "The Lion King" isn’t actually that of a lion. The sound was created using a combination of tiger roars and other animal sounds because real lion roars didn’t sound dramatic enough.

Fun fact: Simba's roar in 'The Lion King' isn’t actually a lion's roar! They mixed tiger roars and other animal sounds to make it sound more dramatic.

That’s wild! It’s funny how the most iconic lion in film history actually sounds more like a tiger. I wonder what other unexpected sound effects movies have used!
