OSCAR CONTENDER! Simba, having become king of the Pride Lands, is determined for his cub to follow in his paw prints while the origins of his late father Mufasa are explored.
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.
Oscar winning director Barry Jenkins’ (Moonlight) deft hand and Lin-Manuel Miranda’s (Hamilton) superb music and a voice cast including Beyonce, Mads Mikkelsen and Donald Glover elevate this family friendly tale to must see entertainment.
