“Simba, you have to take your place as king”. Walt Disney Pictures just dropped a new TV spot for the upcoming live-action version of The Lion King, one that shows off Beyoncé Knowles-Carter as Nala for the very first time. We are so intrigued to see this one in cinemas later in the summer, and its release date is drawing closer and closer!
Disney’s The Lion King, directed by Jon Favreau (The Jungle Book), 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 movie will debut in cinemas from 19th July, You can watch the new TV spot and hear Beyoncé below. More on the movie as it comes our way.
