In the story, Denahi plays a pivotal role, serving as both a brother and, ultimately, an antagonist as he seeks to avenge what he believes to be the death of Kenai by a bear. Throughout the film, Denahi’s journey reflects themes of family, loss, and forgiveness, especially as he grapples with the cycle of anger and revenge.

Following the death of their eldest brother Sitka, Denahi becomes increasingly protective and suspicious, particularly after Kenai is transformed into a bear. Denahi does not recognize Kenai in his bear form and unknowingly pursues him, driven by grief and the desire for retribution.

Denahi is voiced by actor Jason Raize, who brought depth and emotional resonance to the character, highlighting Denahi’s internal struggle and evolving understanding of family. Jason Raize was a Broadway actor, best known for originating the role of Simba in The Lion King musical, and his performance in Brother Bear helped bring a unique voice to this layered, heartfelt character.
