Disney's The Lion King Roars into Summer

Summer movies are always highly anticipated and this July is no exception with the release of the Live Action film, The Lion King. Director Jon Favreau takes the story of King Mufasa and his pride, as they survive life in the African Savanna, to the big screen in an unforgettable whole new way. From the birth of Simba, through the drama and betrayal surrounding the battle for the throne, and ending with Simba's fight to regain his spot as the leader, The Lion King utilizes pioneering filmmaking techniques that will bring our favorite characters to life like never before.

The Lion King includes the amazing talents of the one and only James Earl Jones as Mufasa, along with Donald Glover (Simba), Beyonce Knowles-Carter (Nala), Chiwetel Ejiofor (Scar ) and the duo Seth Rogen (Pumba) and Billy Eichner (Timon) rounding out the key characters.
