Special Look at ‘The Lion King’ Debuts During the Oscars®
Last night, Oscar® viewers enjoyed an all-new look at director Jon Favreau’s The Lion King, which opens in theaters on July 19, 2019.
Disney’s upcoming film journeys to the African savanna where a future king is born. Simba idolizes his father, King Mufasa, and takes to heart his own royal destiny. But not everyone in the kingdom celebrates the new cub’s arrival. Scar, Mufasa’s brother—and former heir to the throne—has plans of his own.
The battle for Pride Rock is ravaged with betrayal, tragedy and drama, ultimately resulting in Simba’s exile. With help from a curious pair of newfound friends, Simba will have to figure out how to grow up and take back what is rightfully his. The all-star cast includes Donald Glover as Simba, Beyoncé Knowles-Carter as Nala, James Earl Jones as Mufasa, Chiwetel Ejiofor as Scar, Seth Rogen as Pumbaa and Billy Eichner as Timon, and utilizes pioneering filmmaking techniques to bring treasured characters to life in a whole new way.
This is going to be a big year for Disney movies with Frozen 2, Star Wars, and Lion King sure to be leading box office sales! I'm certainly adding this classic to my list of summer must see movies to see with the family! What are some films you're looking forward to in 2019?
