MUFASA: THE LION KING | Official Trailer | In Cinemas 20 December 2024
Disney’s “MUFASA: THE LION KING” director Barry Jenkins and songwriter Lin-Manuel Miranda have revealed the film's brand new trailer and poster to fans attending the studio showcase at D23 2024: The Ultimate Disney Fan Event in Anaheim, California.
They were joined on stage by cast members Aaron Pierre, Kelvin Harrison Jr., Seth Rogen, Billy Eichner, Theo Somolu, Braelyn Rankins and Anika Noni Rose.
The film capped the studio’s presentation with a show-stopping performance of the classic “Nants’ Ingonyama” and new song “Ngomso” by Lebo M., who contributes to the film’s music, alongside a full choir.
MUFASA: THE LION KING will be released only in cinemas on 20 December 2024.
Exploring the unlikely rise of the beloved king of the Pride Lands, “Mufasa: The Lion King” enlists Rafiki to relay the legend of Mufasa to young lion cub Kiara, daughter of Simba and Nala, with Timon and Pumbaa lending their signature schtick. Told in flashbacks, the story introduces Mufasa as an orphaned cub, lost and alone until he meets a sympathetic lion named Taka—the heir to a royal bloodline. The chance meeting sets in motion an expansive journey of an extraordinary group of misfits searching for their destiny—their bonds will be tested as they work together to evade a threatening and deadly foe.
In addition to the cast attending D23 this year, the film also features John Kani, Tiffany Boone, Kagiso Lediga, Preston Nyman, Mads Mikkelsen, Thandiwe Newton, Lennie James, Keith David, Donald Glover, Blue Ivy Carter, Folake Olowofoyeku, Joanna Jones, Thuso Mbedu, Sheila Atim, Abdul Salis, Dominique Jennings and Beyoncé Knowles-Carter.
Blending live-action filmmaking techniques with photoreal computer-generated imagery, the all-new feature film is produced by Adele Romanski & Mark Ceryak, and executive produced by Peter Tobyansen.

00:00It's time. I'll tell you a story. A story of a come, not much bigger than you.
00:16So just to be clear, we're not in this story? There's a lot of stories with all of us! Tell
00:20one of those! Long before they became legends, Mufasa and
00:25the prince who would come to be known as Scar became brothers.
00:30Hello! What's your name? Mufasa.
00:34I told you to wait for me! We can't just leave him here!
00:37Rules are rules, Taka. The king will never accept a stray.
00:41I'm not a stray. I'm just lost.
00:50We do not associate with outsiders. Taka is the future king.
00:54We must protect the bloodline. But dad, I saved his life!
01:04I have a secret, Mufasa. I always wanted a brother.
01:14Sometimes I get a scent. It's barely a trace on the wind.
01:20It smells like home. Then it's gone.
01:26You and Taka together, that is home. Now both of you go.
01:32Find your place in the circle of life.
01:39The circle is broken. There will be one Lion King.
01:46Mufasa! Run!
01:50We must fight together.
01:58If we fight, we die! Just to be clear, I never signed up for this.
02:05I'm here to protect you, my brother.
02:11Mufasa! This was a bad idea!
02:16We're alive! I did it! I saved us!
02:24You were saying?
