‘The Lion King’ – Can You Feel The Love Tonight Promo

If you’ve been waiting to hear what Beyonce and Donald Glover sound like on the soundtrack of the upcoming Live-Action Lion King remake, you are in for a treat. The newest TV promo for the film is out and it not only features the two talents singing a duet on “Can You Feel The Love Tonight?”, but it also features a solid helping of James Earl Jones in his return to the role of Mufasa.

Disney’s “The Lion King,” directed by Jon Favreau, 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. Staying true to the classic story, Favreau utilizes pioneering filmmaking techniques to bring the iconic characters to the big screen in a whole new way. Also featuring James Earl Jones as Mufasa, Chiwetel Ejiofor as Scar, Seth Rogen as Pumbaa and Billy Eichner as Timon, Disney’s “The Lion King” opens in U.S. theaters on July 19, 2019.
