Vengeance is a cultural and literary trope going back to the beginning of the arts. Many of the films, books and TV shows of today use Shakespeare as source material but even The Bard took inspiration from the lore of his time.
One such source was the work of Saxo Grammaticus, whose Gesta Danorum indirectly inspired Hamlet. The Northman liberally quotes from the original Amleth, where The Lion King uses Shakespeare as a starting point. This episode of The GMR reviews their exploration of vengeance as a dramatic hinge upon which to base their stories.
The Lion King, being a Disney animated feature, is a much tamer and family-friendly telling of the same essential story as The Northman, but both films are exciting and sometimes melancholy explorations of family, justice and revenge.
