WATCH: The Lion King full trailer
Disney has released a new trailer for its remake of the hit 1994 animated film, “The Lion King,” showing off a new look at the live-action adventures of Simba and Nala.
The trailer is the first time we hear the voices of the impressive cast in their respective roles: Donald Glover (Simba), Beyonce (Nala), Seth Rogan (Pumbaa), Billy Eichner (Timon), Chiwetel Ejiofor (Scar), John Oliver (Zazu), and James Earl Jones (coming back to voice Mufasa).
Similar to the first trailer, it shows that Disney plans to keep the film consistent with the animated classic by making it a shot-by-shot remake, but altering it in the sense that it will now be in live-action format.
“The Lion King” will hit theaters on July 19th, 2019.
