The remake comes from director Jon Favreau with Donald Glover leading the cast as young Lion Simba, while Beyonce — who is credited in the trailer with her last name, Knowles-Carter — voices Nala, a childhood friend and later love interest to Simba.


Glover and Knowles-Carter are also joined by James Earl Jones who reprises his role from the 1994 animated film as Simba's father Mufasa, Chiwetel Ejiofor as Simba's villainous uncle Scar, Alfre Woodard as Simba's mother Sarabi, with child actor JD McCrary playing the young version of Simba. Shahadi Wright Joseph is voicing the young Nala, while John Kani voices the baboon Rafiki and John Oliver playing Mufasa’s confidant, Zazu.

The film marks another remake Disney has slated for the upcoming year, which already includes Lady in the Tramp for its Disney+ streaming service and Tim Burton's Dumbo, which bows March 29, 2019.
