Personally, I never considered the Lion King books featuring the character canon due to the fact that they haven’t aged well because of “The Lion Guard” and since Disney didn’t exactly officially license the books.

However, I’ve always been open to the possibility of Kopa being real due to the end of the first film, as there certainly is a logicality of that. The only question would be why he was absent from the second film, but I have my theories.

But, this is something I’ve been curious about for quite a while:

If Kopa was to appear in an animated installment as an adult, what actor do you guys think would be a perfect casting choice for the character?
